Ride the Oasis rollercoaster ahead of Live '25. Oasis were Artful Dodgers from a housing estate who created stadium anthems that connected with millions. They became the band of the people by giving the people what they wanted: rock 'n' roll. Ahead of the Live '25 Tour, Definitely Maybe offers a unique take on their story. The euphoric highs, spectacular implosions, chaos, excesses and sibling rivalry. How the Gallagher brothers captured the zeitgeist of the 1990s by embodying the hopes and frustrations of a disillusioned generation. In a rollercoaster ride from their humble beginnings in Manchester through Britpop jousts with Blur and legendary shows at Knebworth, Andy Bollen unveils how their relentless drive, swagger, Irish blood and English heart left an indelible mark on pop history.
"'A readable history of an 'I was there' moment. It's gritty eyewitness stuff and Bollen's valiant tracking down of seven attendees who give their account of the night Rashomon-style is to be applauded'"
The Telegraph
"'A rollercoaster ride. Andy has revisited this infamous night and forensically examines the band's career'"
Daily Record
"'A wonderful Britpop memoir with a powerful, daring-to-dream narrative'"
