    Pretty average gig. They could of played a few Oasis tunes to full it up as it's a sorry concert. Fans gave it everything. Heard a few people afterwards giving out. Moaning about liam not being interested in being there.

    I thought when he was hit with that pint he would have walked off!

    Agree, that they should have played for longer but they only have 2 albums.

    I know they could have played more Oasis songs but it's a Beady Eye gig.

    I can see Oasis reforming in a few years anyhow for the 20th Anniversaries of Definitely Maybe and What's the Story.

    Good gig, first time seeing either of the post-Oasis bands after seeing Oasis a shed-load of times. I've found the new album a bit hard to get into to be honest, but I thought the songs sounded great live (apart from things going a bit haywire at the mixing desk for Start Anew and Bring The Light!). It was a little short all right (Oasis gigs were never famously long, mind you), maybe one or two more old tunes wouldn't have hurt.

    First time in ages I'd been to a gig with so much beer-throwing, was Carling on special at the bar or something? Fair play to Liam for not losing his cool when the beer hit him, not like the old days at all at all..... :D

    What sort of a mong throws a pint of beer at the lead singer of a band they've just paid money to see? They must have been up the front too which means they are obviously one of the more dedicated fans.

    Why is everyone wanting oasis songs?? You paid to see beady eye play BE not oasis!

    I think Liam has alot of other issues at the moment!

    Well I suppose it is a BE concert but they don't have enough songs to play a decent concert. The BE stuff is mediocre at best. If they were a band starting out without having being Oasis Previously they would be lucky to sell out a local pub. Think Liam has a great voice still he could of done a few of his own Oasis sings like song bird and little James (I joke).

    Any way 1hr 10 was a tad short.

    Was an OK gig, slightly disappointed though, didn't think the songs from the new album were great at all, Flick Of The Finger and Soon Come Tomorrow being the exceptions, I thought the songs from the last album sounded better. Good to hear the Oasis songs also but they did make me all sad and nostalgic for the times of old, it's a real come down from the the glory days playing to a crowd of a 1000 people most of whom aren't really into the songs being played. Was a bit short also.

    Still, have a ticket for tonight so will get to do it all over again, not really expecting many changes to the set list so hopefully the crowd will be better tonight!
