Ik luister eigenlijk alleen maar de live versies, dus als er een keer een gewoon nummer voorbij komt zing ik er ook altijd dingen bij die ze alleen tijdens concerten doen.

little by little is toch heathen chemistry? Maar, ik vind standing on the shoulders of giants inderdaad een goed album

Eigenlijk ken ik Standing on the shoulder of giants helemaal niet. Misschien morgen weer eens een keertje helemaal luisteren. Alleen Go Let It Out kan ik op dit moment plaatsen.

Noel Gallagher plays biggest ever acoustic show
Oasis leader joined by View and very special guest
9 hours ago

Noel Gallagher played his biggest ever solo gig in London tonight (March 26).

Headlining the Royal Albert Hall for the first of this year's Teenage Cancer Trust shows, the Gibson Guitars sponsored night saw the Oasis leader mixing his own songs with a host of classic covers.

Kicking off his set accompanied by bandmate Gem Archer and percussionist Terry Kirkbride, who has played at previous solo shows, Gallagher opened the evening with a series of his acclaimed b-sides including 'Talk Tonight' and '(It's Good) To Be Free'.

He then introduced his star collaborator of night in typically comic style.

"So as it's the Teenage Cancer Trust and as it's the Albert Hall, I'd like to introduce - somewhat predictably - Paul Weller," proclaimed the guitarist as the Modfather linked up for an ecstatically received version of The JAM's 'Butterfly Collector' and a cover of The Beatles' 'All You Need Is Love'.

Gallagher was then joined by an all-female string section for the rest of the gig which include an outing for Oasis' third album.

"Every time we go on tour, on that bandwagon, people say 'why don't you play songs of 'Be Here Now''," explained Gallagher. "So this evening we're going to play a song off 'Be Here Now'. I don't think this has ever been played before, for obvious reasons."

The guitarist then performed 'Don't Go Away', before moving onto a rare live performance of 'Definitely Maybe' vinyl bonus track 'Sad Song'.

With the evening's special feel, many fans began calling for Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher before a stripped down version of 'Wonderwall', forcing his brother to explain his absence.

"I did ask Liam if he'd come down tonight," joked Gallagher, "but he used the worlds 'fuck' and 'charity' in the same sentence."

The Oasis boss then stunned the crowd with another cover as he introduced as his "favourite song ever".

Performing a beautiful version of The Smiths' 'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out', Gallagher - dressed in a brown blazer and back shirt - recalled the first time he had ever played the song acoustically, in Russia at the weekend (March 25).

"I did this in Moscow the other night, but I don't think The Smiths have sold any fucking records in Russia," he observed. "I got to the chorus and thought 'they're going to have it in a minute' - no."

Finishing up the night with a host of Oasis hits including 'Don't Look Back In Anger', which he dedicated to "the kids" benefiting from the Teenage Cancer Trust's work, Gallagher rounded off the evening covering The Beatles again, this time with 'Strawberry Fields'.

Noel Gallagher played:

'(It's Good) To Be Free'
'Talk Tonight'
'Fade Away'
'Cast No Shadow'
'Half The World Away'
'The Importance Of Being Idle'
'Butterfly Collector'
'All You Need Is Love'
'Don't Go Away'
'Listen Up'
'Sad Song'
'Wonderwall'
'Slide Away'
'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out'
'Don't Look Back in Anger'
'Married With Children'
'Strawberry Fields Forever'

Earlier, the evening had been opened by Liverpool band Shack before The View played their longest ever acoustic gig.

Including versions of singles 'Same Jeans', 'Superstar Tradesman' and 'Wasted Little DJs', the Dundee band also surprised the audience covering The Squeeze's 'Up The Junction'.

Highlights and interviews from tonight's gig are due to be broadcast on Virgin Radio between 4-8pm tomorrow (March 7).

Kasabian and Kaiser Chiefs are also due to headline shows at the London venue for the charity later in the week.

Hoeveel moet je rekenen voor alles bij elkaar? Overnachting, overtocht, biergeld etc.?
