  • After the success of singles Supersonic, Shakermaker and Live Forever and the debut album Definitely Maybe, Liam Gallagher, Noel Gallagher and the rest of Oasis went on tour in the USA. There, they'd play what is regarded as their worst gig ever - Whiskey A Go Go in 1994. A tiny mistake caused a boatload of issues!

    This reminds me of when I started playing comfortably numb on guitar instead of bohemian rhapsody. Wasn’t on drugs, just was really out of it that night

    I saw them live in 2009 (4 gigs before they disbanded) and I listened to the audio from their Whisky a Go-Go performance, and I'd have to say the gig I experienced myself was worse. With all the mistakes, it seems like they at least showed some enthusiasm at Whisky a Go-Go.

    Your mental health and your behavior is everything. In the 90s nobody gave a toss about a person's MH or sobriety status like they do now, as long as they showed up to the gig. This drug fueled insanity would not fly today.

    He didn’t even miss out any songs, I’ve watched the Whiskey A Go Go gig and all they seem to mess up on is Rock n Roll Star at the start, and redo it better. Granted a stage monitor broke and Noel’s mic was a bit too high and his voice was bad, but other than that, it was an alright gig!

    I watched that whole show on UA-cam and it is not the disaster people claim it is. They sound raw, loud and in the moment, like they're channeling their inner Iggy Pop. Sure, they had to restart their opening song but it's my favorite performance of that song, hands down. They never sounded so alive.

      I saw them in 2005. Not the best if I’m honest. I could see how incredible they would’ve been 10 years before, but to me they seemed uninterested at the time. Still, even if lethargically played, the songs were still pretty brilliant to hear live!

    The worst Oasis gig imho was any show of the "Don't believe the truth" tour.
    That album it's great, and one of the best of the late Oasis, but the shows from that tour were soooo bad, Liam can't even sing the songs from the album (more suited for his voice at the moment), not just the classics.

    I saw them play in Portland Oregon and they only played about 4 or 5 songs before Liam stormed off the stage. They were gone for about 20 minutes then they came back and played about half a song. Liam was so drunk by this time he could barely stand up. He was screaming obscenities at the audience. They were finally escorted off the stage and that was the end of the concert. Luckily Travis opened for them and they were great. But Oasis was a hot mess.

    🐸 OASIS PLAYED OUT OF TIME AND TUNE , I the 90s I prefered Blur, so to stop people saying oasis all the time to me I saw them at a festival in the 90s when they were supposed to be good but they were slow and very out of tune probably because of the drugs and being deaf and having lots od deaf autstic type of fans which you couldn't take about then. I think they are known to be a bit stupid s well
