Was just listening back to the Maine Road gig and the first thing that struck me (bit late I know) was just how mega it was starting with The Swamp Song (with Noel coming out with all the band minus Liam and going into it like a bit of a jam) and the first thing that hit me as I listened to it was, they missed one hell of a trick with it. I mean, fair play, after Standing...came out they was always going to start that and the next tour with FITB but, the final tour they could have so easily brought it back. Imagine what the "10 Years.." tour would have been like with Gem, Andy and Noel banging out Swamp Song. Even the DOYS tour, with Chris and his excellent drumming skills, it would have been an opening to knock the socks off you.
What do you lot think??
Also, while we are on the subject, I also feel the overuse of IATW and not bringing back either Cum On Feel The Noize (my preferred choice tbh) or My Generation (espically this one). I mean, Cum On..I can understand, it was a definite Morning Glory tour finale but, My Generation got done on the HC tour and never again. I would so have preferred that than the constant live versions of IATW.

My Generation- HC and DBBT ...it became a drag for me
For me Id have rather Oasis finish with an Oasis tune like All around the world, Let There Be Love..

I am the Walrus was amazing during the last tour. My Generation just couldn't be sung live by Liam in my opinion.

Personally I would have loved them to have opened with swamp song and closed with come on feel the noise. Definitely prefer IATW to MG though.

I never really liked The Swamp Song TBH...but imagine them coming on stage playing the old Snakebite instrumental!

FITB and the Swamp Song were the best openers they ever played. For the last song, I think it should be an Oasis anthem - AATW or CS. Both songs are about 15 minutes long and end in repetitions/a guitar solo, they're perfect to close a gig.

Swamp Song is ok, not brilliant but worked well as the bits on the album and especially live when Liam would walk out half way through!
IATW was the tune Oasis started with as an encore, so it's always fitted for me as a set closer - although RNRS would be my first choice.
RNRS at Wembley 2000 was epic and I love the big screens showing the old Oasis photos and images - just adds to it being the last song of the night!

RNRS was better to start the set with like they did on the last tour. I like IATW as a closer and hated My Generation.
