From the 1960s to the present day, the vibrant and distinct sounds of Manchester and Liverpool continue to captivate audiences worldwide.

A memorable night in Cardiff After their heyday in the 1990s and a post-millennium period often written off as creatively stagnant, this is Oasis repackaged for the 21st century. Author | Josh T Few bands have benefited more from the rise of streaming. Curated playlists trim the fat from the discography (and in Oasis's later years, there was plenty of it) while streaming strips away context, distancing the music from the accompanying baggage of critical scorn and tabloid drama.  The much-discussed Oasis fans that are too young to remember the band first-hand are real enough (you can see them dotted throughout the crowd ) and many of them are loving it.  This show leans into a convenient myth that Oasis essentially went on hiatus in 1998. It’s a setlist that resembles a greatest hits playlist, heavy on the early albums and B-sides from the years when Noel Gallagher’s songwriting was so prolific he could casually relegate songs as strong as Acquiesce or The Masterplan to CD s...

The conclusion of the tour follows comments from Liam Gallagher, who appeared to suggest during a September performance that Oasis could return for further shows in 2026. “See you next year?” At their Wembley St...

The Haçienda was an iconic Manchester nightclub  It became famous during the Madchester years of the 1980s and early 1990s. What made it so famous though? Is there any comparable events going on today? Author - Sophie T  Creation The Haçienda was opened on 21 May 1982. Over the first few years, a wide range of musical acts appeared at the club. One of the earliest was the German EBM band Liaisons Dangereuses, which played there on 7 July 1982.  The Smiths performed there three times in 1983. It also served as a venue for Madonna on her first performance in the United Kingdom, on 27 January 1984.  House music In 1986, it became one of the first British clubs to start playing house music, with DJs Hewan Clarke, Greg Wilson and later Mike Pickering and Little Martin hosting the visionary "Nude" night on Fridays.
