Oasis

Nope they set up their gear then took in down and that was JET that played the very short set.Then during Oasis encore Kasabian came out and sang back up vocals.It was an awesome show over all but still would have liked to see them play.Would have been kinda like seeing Oasis play twice in one night if you know what I mean.
youre right…they came out during the encore.
shoot, Jet was on the lineup as well when I saw Oasis at Shoreline. Their set must have been forgettable that I didn't even remember until I looked at my list of past shows. In 2008, they're just drinking piss from a monkey.

Below is a review from someone who went to that show. Note reference to "drinking".

Oasis / Jet / Kasabian (Shoreline Amphitheatre, 11 September 2005)

Part 1 of 3

I'm on holiday at the moment for my long time ritual of going to see Oasis in every single possible venue in California. Tonight is their first stop in Northern California as they do a show at the much hated Shoreline. If it wasn't for the 49ers traffic, my friends and I could have made it on time to see Kasabian. Alas, that wasn't the case.

We caught the last couple of songs from Kasabian. I think the last song was "L.S.F. (Lost Souls Forever)" and it was as brilliant as what it was when I saw them at Coachella. The lead singer (whose name escapes me at the moment) looks a bit more tidy with the haircut and tucked in shirt. He looked very Liam-esque actually. A skinnier, younger version at least.

Afterwards we went to get some beer and met up with a couple other friends. Meeting up at the Shoreline is almost an impossible task with all these concession stands. As I peeked at the overpriced merchandise (Oasis track jacket: $80. Oasis bag: $40) I got some MGD courtesy of M-L, who was hella late because of her flight plans in Ontario.

We spent the Jet set on the lawn since we want to be as far away as possible from these guys. Their rock is too damn traditional. It's like the Stones and Aerosmith were all in there. There should be a Jet drinking game, where everytime the lead singer says "YEAH!" it's drinkin' time. Guaranteed to kill you since he says that word every other sentence. I wasn't impressed. Even with their hit songs. Again, I wasn't impressed. These guys should come on first instead of Kasabian.

Oasis came on at around 9:30pm. They opened their set with "Fucking in the Bushes" as the entrance song. Here comes the band, with Liam wearing a collarless long sleeved shirt with gold rimmed sunglasses. He looked straight out of Be Here Now if it wasn't for the fact that he got kinda big and his skin aged tremendously. That's what drugs will do to you kids. Think moderation. Noel was as slender as ever, but he still looked kinda old.

"Turn Up the Sun" came on next. This and other new Oasis songs like "The Importance of Being Idle" and "Guess God Thinks I'm Abel" fell short since it was too dull sounding. Other new songs like "Lyla," "Mucky Fingers," and "Meaning of Soul" fared better, but not by much.

It was the past albums that made Oasis great and the crowd at this show didn't get crazy until an oldie was played. The song after "Lyla" was "Bring it on Down" which should amuse all the 30+ kids out there. I like "Bring it on Down," but it's a good live song IMHO. Obviously, "Supersonic" could have been played, or even anythhing off of Standing on the Shoulder of Giants, Heathen Chemistry or, my preference, "D'You Know What I Mean?" from Be Here Now.

I don't think they played any songs off of Heathen Chemistry, which is surprising since they seemed really proud of that album. Most of ths songs consisted of classics like "Live Forever" (which was dedicated to New Orleans) "Wonderwall" (which was dedicated to all the ladies in the audience) and "Don't Look Back In Anger." For "Don't Look Back in Anger," Noel let the crowd sing the first chorus. It was a big sing-a-long and I grabbed four of my friends and forced them to sing it with me in tandem. It was a proud moment!

There was a problem with Liam's mic during "Champagne Supernova, " probably because of feedback in the monitors. Liam was as playful as ever. Placing the trambourine flat on this head. Or biting the tambourine so that it looks like Liam has this huge grin. Liam trying to pinch Noel's bum after the encore. Liam shaking hands with the twats in the lower level seats. Or Liam giving a couple of lucky fans his tambourine. I want that tambourine damn it. I've been waiting for it for the last 7 years.

Overall, a great show with all the classics spilled right in.
Okay. So. I missed out on tickets because apparently 8 am is the new 10 am. And…b/c you lucky dawgs knew of a pre-sale on the 30th while some of us were working. ;)
Anyone have spares for a lost soul? Or will I have an opportunity before 10 am tomorrow to nab something better than the nosebleed section?
Good seats still availabe for the presale. I just pulled a section 2 Row C seat 13. Go take a look Greer Zoller
I am. And, I'm only seeing section 109. Are you joe marshmellow?;P
i just pulled section 2 row G. There's also another presale at 10
Thanks for the head's up & help. For one seat, I pulled sec 2; for 2, sec 5. (can't afford the price but, agh.) I went for 2 in sec 5. I saw Ryan at DAR and I was about the same distance away - better sound and view.
The 930 presale was active early this morning…I feel badly for those waiting until 10 am.

(Both Ryan and Pete are good, but they sound different to me. Pete explored with a twangy album last year…it was decent, but but he doesn't have a hold on it, yet.)
Make sure you use oasisinet for the password and specify floor seating. I pulled Sec 2 Row C with these.
Greer, I bet Ryan Adams will only play for 30 minutes. I've been two Patriot Center twice and both times the openers played no more than 30 minutes.
Oh, I'm not necessarily concerned about the time for Ryan - I was just comparing the seats to a previous time to affirm myself of good seatage. :)

Wait a second … I've never been to the Patriot Center so maybe I'm missing something, but my confirmation email says:

"Seat location: section SEC-2, row C, seat 13"

Are we in the same seat or is that just how they refer to a particular section?
Did ticket prices just go up? I bought mine Tuesday and the ticket price was around $69.50. They are now $72.50 on ticketmaster. That seems strange.
i hear the patriot center has a designated drinking area and you cant drink at your seat..is this true?

That used to be the case, but when I saw the Cure there a few months ago I was allowed to bring my drink in.

You got a floor seat for the show. Usually they have general admission but I guess for this show it's seat on the floor. Same setup as The Cure. I don't think Greer got the same seat as you. I was able to pull that exact same seat this morning. I already got my ticet the other day. This seat is a tad bit better but oh well.
depends on the show. i've seen 10-12 shows there, and only once did they have a restricted drinking area: kanye west (real pity, since the show was rather unimpressive and might have fared better with some alcohol).

maybe they only do this for "troublesome" shows? if that's the case there is a chance that oasis would qualify.
the last show i went to a Patriot center was Green Day a few years ago (shushh, i won the tickets and the wife wanted to go) and there was definitely a beer garden there then.

and i remember not being surprised about it either, so i am assuming it was like a a lot.

the green day beer garden, btw is a delightful experience as there were only like 5 people in it!
The last show I went to was the Cure and they didn't have a beer garden for that. The one show I went to that had beer garden was on those hfs nutcracker ones.
There was a beer garden when Bowie played there, which was a blessing because the support band was the Stereophonics so the beer garden was a welcome escape from that crap.
