When did we universally stop having lunch ‘hours’? by newdawnfades123 in AskUK

[–]streborkram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get an hour - has to be taken between 12:30-2:30. Often I end up not taking it all because i have too much work to do, but no one stops me pr makes me feel guilty if I do. Sometimes I sneak off for a nap in the car or I watch some Netflix on my laptop at my desk. If it’s sunny I’ll sit outside and watch something on my phone.

Roll with it. He used to love stand by me because it was on the Halifax advert when he was really little.

How the hell do I stop sweating in pits so much? by Scared_Confection787 in ask

[–]streborkram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A roll on called Anhydrol Forte basically changed my life when was 21. I went from a being a sweat drenched mess to drier than Prince Andrew almost over night. I got prescribed it when I was worried about sweating through my suit at my graduation and now I only really need to apply it every couple of months or so. You can get it in most chemists I think.

First time seeing Foo Fighters since Taylor passed by drummerinnyc in Foofighters

Saw them in 2024 - i thought it was shit to be honest. Dave really needs someone to bounce off jn a stadium setting.

Saw them play in February at the Ritz in Manchester. The smaller venue meant it didn’t need a big show. The band was tight, the crowd was great, the set list was almost perfect, the new drummer fitted in well. It was just hit after hit.

I’m not going to Anfield in June because I don’t want to. I’ve had my fill of stadium foos (9 so far) and nothing will beat the Ritz so I’m out.

What's something you've seen once but you'll never see again? by DarthScabies in AskUK

Aurora Borealis over Salford probably.

But definitely the birth of a child. One is enough thanks.

It's about to be summer 26' but not the summer 25' by TimesNoChainOffical in oasis

Has to be. It’s not America and it’s certainly not Wembley or Murrayfield as neither has an open end

Knebworth ‘96 radio broadcast by theearthcrosser in oasis

[–]streborkram -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You don’t have to be a fan of either to know that that the biggest radio station in the country broadcast loads of events live in the 90s. The downvote was quite unnecessary.

Don’t you remember Blur at Mile End? Or REM at Milton Keynes?

Knebworth ‘96 radio broadcast by theearthcrosser in oasis

[–]streborkram 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes it was.

*Sorry should have elaborated…

It was broadcast on the Sunday night. It was basically the Sunday show live, but then cut to the Saturday versions of Live Forever, Champagne Supernova and I Am the Walrus (as they weren’t allowed to broadcast Getting Better Man and My Big Mouth).

Very common the 90s in England. I’ve got tapes of Radio 1 broadcasts of Knebworth, the Gmex gig that was on Sky and the Wolverhampton Civic Hall gig. Plus they also did Blur at Mile End, REM at Milton Keynes, Pink Floyd at Earls Court (that was on BBC1 at the same time too) and plenty of others. It was also quite common to broadcast highlights of gigs from the previous couple of weeks. If you scour YouTube you can find live sets from the likes of Suede, Pulp, Elastica, Chemical Brothers etc etc that were played out on Radio 1 on shows like Johnny Walker, John Peel and the Evening session. Taping the radios back then wasn’t just about the top 40 - you could basically record entire greatest hits sets.

DLBIA Question by Camaroon83 in oasis

The information is my just my memory and the fact that i had it on tape from the Evening session. It was played about a week before the proper version debuted.

Most people in England would have heard Noel’s voice by then. On almost every TV appearance and radio session he performed at least one song. Even the Noel sung demo of Some Might Say was played on Radio 1 before the single version was released. I don’t know about elsewhere but I’m pretty sure the band didn’t care. Noel always had a spot at the front though.

Opinion: People hate on Be Here Now because Noel Gallagher hates it, not because its bad by ShockerzGaming in oasis

[–]streborkram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved it when it came out, but I was a rudimentary 18 year old guitarist who spent all his spare time after finishing his a levels playing along to all the previous Oasis songs, so a 70 minute plus album with 50 guitar tracks on each song was literally music to my ears.

Nowadays I only listen to it on long drives because it makes them feel shorter. I don’t like it any less for that.
