"Why the reunion was deemed to be worthy of 'news' I don't know."Perhaps because they are set to break Taylor Swift's record for attendance at Wembley gigs ? There are a lot of people out there who want to see a reunited Oasis (or at least the Brothers Gallagher) and if nothing else their tour will keep the tills ringing and give a little boost to the economy. While not a massive fan, I have three of the first four Oasis albums and IMHO there are some good tunes on them. There were some good bands around in the Britpop era - Suede, Pulp, Blur, Elastica, Lush, Sleeper, Echobelly, Catatonia, Boo Radleys, Supergrass, the Verve, to name a few - and to my ear the current music scene is much less interesting than it was in those days.
