Kasabian/Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - Marley Park - 23 August 2012

mutley18

I seen both Noel and Kasabian at their last O2 shows so this wouldn't appeal that much to me, but as I will be in Dublin anyway for The Black Keys gig the night before I may as well stay an extra night.....i love it when **** works out!

What is Marley Park like for gigs anyway? And where the hell is Marley Park?! :P

Doubt the Vaccines will be added , The cribs will be as big as they go for support . They wont need to add any other big bands tbh since if you look at both Kasabians and Noels last Irish tour between them they basically sold out 3 arena shows (not sure if Noel did Belfast if he did then 4) which is about 34000 between them . Depends on which side of Marley they are using one side is about 25000 and the other 30000/35000

Flawed logic there, it's not separate 34,000 individuals - the same people will have gone to those 4 gigs, Kasabian and Noel have much the same fan base and both were only 'sold out' in the MCD sense.. as in you could still actually buy tickets on ticketmaster coming up to the event again and there was plenty around.

That said, I'm sure this will do well.

Does anyone think Noel Gallagher will play a longer set than he did at the Chilli's gig? He played about 13 songs last night.

Would say 8 from his album, 4 Oasis, 1 cover and a couple of new tunes, so ballpark 15 sings I'd imagine

its a "double headliner" so id assume they will both play full sets ~20 songs

Speaking of Croker, anyone care to post the setlist for NGHFB? I would really like to see/hear some variety and not just the same batch of songs he has been touring since the O2.

No excuse given the huge catalogue at his disposal.

kasabian better be topping the bill otherwise i wont go. marley park is brilliant for a gig

50 Euro is a bargain, seen Noel last night at Croker and he was great, quick question though- Why is the band called Noel Gallaghers High Flyin Birds as opposed to the High Flying Birds, is it not a little derogatary towards the rest of the band? Like is it not similar to Kings of Leon being called Caleb Followills Kings of leon etc.? I know nothing about the band so excuse me if theres a perfectly valid reason, I'm just a little curious.

Cannot wait for this, Kasabina ive seen about 5 times live at this stage and they have never disappointed and it will be my first time to see Noel Gallagher High Flying Birds and in an outdoor venue cant get better than that.

Well its basically Noels solo career more than his new band. He set it up and writes all the music. Nearly every singer has a band with them when performing live that go on tour with him and help with recordings but that's it. For example Imelda May has a full band behind her when she performs but she just performs under the name 'Imelda May' and gives no mention to her band in the title.

Its Noels solo career in summary and he could have easily just called himself 'Noel Gallagher' like most (Imelda May, Miles Kane) but instead included the name of his band (Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band)

Sorry for repeating this question but I really need to know is there any chance of this being sold out in the first week or so or will there be tickets up until a few days before hand?

Have to agree, 50Euro is a bargain! Roll on Friday, can't wait to get some tickets!

Saw Noel in Belfast a few months ago and whilst he's not a comfortable man talking to a crowd, he is one excellent live performer. Will defo be getting tickets for this!

I've never heard him live, ever so I'm really looking forward to this!

I'm a huge fan of the man but the only criticism I have to voice is my disappointment with the setlist, it's far too repetitive and predictable for my liking. I've been following NGHFB online and watched a few of the excellent live broadcasts etc. and I enjoyed the O2 gig immensely, but I don't really want to hear the same set again in Marlay Park.

Seriously hoping he digs a little deeper for the final portion of the tour, Listen Up, Rockin' Chair or pretty much any of the countless Oasis B-Sides would be spectacular to hear, there is no reason not to include these IMHO.

That Royal Albert Hall ("Dreams We Have As Children") CD is absolutely top class.

Oh so its not a band its just Noel being backed up by the same group basically, Thanks
