Although you all think Noel and Liam are a pair of chimps,

you have to give them credit for not getting involved in these really irritating charities.

Its like this. http://drownedinsound.com/articles/2983921

There aren't many more annoying things a musician can do than to try and save the world from doom. As if they give a toss. Its like Live 8. Geldof and that Scotch nobody asked them to cancel their show they had planned for City Of Manchester stadium. They told them to fuck off. This is brilliant to me. I went to said show and it was great.

I think that not getting involved in 'causes' shows first of all that they're not willing to be guilted into doing something. It also shows they're not prepared to start patronising the public into changing their minds on stuff. Music and politics shouldn't mix, and Oasis are one of the only bands that seem to know this (apart from Noel's idiotic backing of Blair way back when).

Oasis. Best band ever?
