Oasis
Location: London, England, U.K
Venue: Earl’s Court Exhibition Centre
Date: 25th September 1997

After their two-night stint at the same venue in 1995 went up a storm, Oasis returned to Earl’s Court, this time playing three nights, one upping their previous appearance. Despite these shows being nowhere near as iconic as their previous visit in hindsight, this was still another pinpoint to mark the fact they had no rivals in the U.K popularity wise, and while not as big venues, several other locations would be booked and sold-out as three nights as well. As for the performance, while an improvement from the second night in Sheffield, this is more of your standard Be Here Now show. It also seems to be around the beginning of where the band really began to go off the rails with the drugs they were taking on this tour as Liam does a lot of patrolling around, and on the stage objects. However it’s still a great band performance with lots of energy behind it (even if the majority of that energy is drug-fuelled) and is a good start to their three-night stint at Earl’s Court, with some great renditions of Wonderwall, Fade In-Out and All Around The World. Perhaps more notably about these shows is that the opening band for all three nights were The Verve, days from releasing their third album, Urban Hymns featuring their most well-known hit, Bittersweet Symphony, whom Oasis had known and supported in the past. They dedicate Acquiesce to them on this night. The recording here is a decent one, but it seems the taper for this particular source was not happy with the sound until Roll With It, therefore there’s lots of interference before hand.
