he is in my opinion one of the greatest lyricists and performers this country has EVER produced and he can make me laugh so much,over the years he has had me in fits top man and well worth every penny and there aren't many left these days you can say that about

He's brill, I could listen to him talking for hours never mind singing.

oh yeah?try standing on stage when it goes on for twenty minutes i remember playing a festival in europe where he talked forever me and mackey smoked about three fags in that time,i remember our drummer Nick going off for a piss.....hilarious

i have so many fond and funny memories with that band

I saw Pulp supporting Oasis at the Sheffield Arena in 94 or 95 and they were much better, although i have a soft spot for Oasis. I even thought The Verve outshone Oasis at that gig too.

I love him, you've got him to blame for me being on here really

i love oasis to be honest,the music can be so fucking awesome i saw them live very early on,it was at the 100 club i was supporting them in the ~Longpigs they just had what they call"it"........they blew us off the stage,they were on a joint headliner tour with a band called whiteout who were excellent as well..sorry rambling on there in fact they are on channel 4 now

Oasis were just dead right for their time I think - the whole thing just worked so well. Liam's a great front man but I always think the way he sings is at odds with the rough image 'cos his phrasing and everytrhng is perfect.

only met him once and i thought he was a nice bloke a lot of musicains are VERY different on stage to what they are like in the bus stop.......know what i mean?

Just home...

I don't even know what to say. It was amazing. He's sounding great... Love the new songs, and I'm getting really excited about a new album now. He got some pink tape stuck to the toe of one of his (very stylish) Cuban heeled shoes, tripped over his microphone wire three separate times, crawled across the stage on his stomach, poured a bottle of water over his head, showed us a slide show and sang to me. There's more. It'll come back to me, I'm sure.

And it turned into a disco at the end, but my dad made us leave

Still... Go see him!
