Liam Gallagher, the former lead vocalist of British rock band Oasis, will be in Manila for a concert on Aug. 14 at the Mall of Asia Arena in Paranaque City.
To be mounted by Ovation Productions, it is the first-ever live performance here of the British rock star named the greatest front man of all time in a reader poll conducted by Q magazine in 2010.
Oasis was a five-piece band from Manchester UK whose inspired leadership by the brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher made it the defining musical act of a generation.
The group’s live act was distinguished by Noel’s proudly British lyrics, choruses that could make one’s throat clench and one’s heart ready to burst; as well as Liam’s sneering vocals and pissed-off posture, the cocktail of ego, camaraderie and one-upmanship.
The band’s third album, “Be Here Now,” in 1997 set a new record as the fastest-selling album in UK chart history, while “What’s The Story Morning Glory” attained greater success by becoming the third-selling album in British recording history.
Their other hits: “Wonderwall,” “Champagne Supernova” and “Don’t Look Back In Anger,” selling more than 71 million worldwide.
