Some thoughts on Wembley - Pretty Boy is good live. - I don’t know who you are, but stop singing ‘Open the door….’ with such gusto, it just encourages him. - I like all the previous NGHFB songs after Easy Now through to Dead in the Water, but it was very flat. - dead in the water is great. TBH, crowd only really woke up at this point. - going nowhere is a decent bside but flat here - Was predictably tremendous after that. - change the setlist! - actually, don’t change it, but mix the songs up -I think I paid £28 for two beers and one wine - Wembley Arena needs knocking down. It’s taken me a week but my thoughts on the gig: Arrived at 6:30 (doors at 6) managed to get in about five rows back from front and centre in the standing area. I did indeed see those guys pushing their way through as HTWA started. Glad they were rebuffed. Noel got on stage at 9pm so we’d been keeping that spot long enough. I generally knew the setlist and knew I was most excited for “going nowhere” and “dead in the water” but forgot we’d get “you know we can’t go back” and “we’re on our way now” which were absolute highlights for me. Also seeing Noel get the Les Paul out for “in the heat of the moment” was a surprise. Hearing “we’re gonna get there in the end” felt pretty emotional and intense for me. Really a special moment. I was surprised by how much I liked hearing “open the door l” live - and the third song in. I’ve always liked it but I loved it live. I really enjoyed the run of HFB songs but the new album —> HFB best —> Oasis hits sequence felt quite predictable. Would have been nice to mix it up and keep us on our toes a bit more. Not a lot of banter and such but I didn’t expect that. It was a great HFB gig, everyone seemed satisfied. I’m still a bit surprised he ends the main set with LBL instead of TMP when that one goes down so spectacularly (not that LBL doesn’t get a great reaction) It was nice to see Noel enjoy doing The Mighty Quinn even though I’d much much rather have heard “love will tear us apart”. I wish he’d have kept that cover going. Last point: Chris sharrock doesn’t seem to have aged since I last saw him with Oasis in 2008. Gem looks older, Noel looks older, but 15 years later Chris Sharrock is exactly the same! You Know We Can't Go Back is a great tune and one of my favourites by Noel.

I could only hear his response (“I can’t understand you because your mouth is full of shit”)

The thing to remember with any gig is stuff like 'the crowd was flat' or 'the crowd was great' is - unless you have a birds eye view of everything that is happening - very personal.
It all depends on where you are and who you're surrounded by.
If you happen to be next to people who don't like anything from Council Skies, then you'll likely think the crowd were flat.
If you happen to be next to people who love it, then you wouldn't think it was flat.
Unless you're in a very small gig, then an arena is simple far too vast to tell. That goes for any gig in those kinds of settings.

Noel’s response got a good laugh though.

Anyone bought the European tour print and opened it yet? I got mine yesterday and was wondering if its numbered or anything, but I didn't want to open mine until I have a frame ready for it. Mine came today and no, it's not numbered.

Always bought tickets online as sale started. They ship overseas but you can also collect the tickets at the day of event without queuing.

Any idea on prices for TCT? Probably £50/£60 for cheap seats, £70/£80 for average seats, £100+ for seats close to the stage. I'd expect to pay around £150 for a pair of half decent tickets.

I've already seen Noel on this tour but fancy the RAH.. BUT, is it going to be special, thats the big question?
The one with Gem was a classic, the 2015 one he played with Gem again to support his own band.
I wonder will it be a standard gig but in this great venue, or will he pull something else out of the bag for it?

I wonder will it be a standard gig but in this great venue, or will he pull something else out of the bag for it? I'd be surprised if he didn't throw in a couple of surprises, however with Noel I would never count on it. In 2013 it was billed as a normal HFB gig, and we ended up getting Lord Don't Slow Me Down, Alone On The Rope, A Simple Game Of Genius and Shout It Out Loud. That was the same year that Noel performed Tender with Damon and Graham from Blur, and Paul Weller played drums, what a night that was!
