Description
Oasis's meteoric rise to fame in the mid-1990s was marked by two monumental free-standing gigs at Knebworth Park in 1996, drawing a combined crowd of 250,000 people. This defining moment set the stage for a rollercoaster ride through the highs and lows of rock 'n' roll excess. The book "Where Did It All Go Wrong? Oasis and the Millennium Meltdown 1995 - 2000" chronicles the band's journey from the euphoria of "(What's the Story) Morning Glory?" to the comedown of "Standing on the Shoulder of Giants". The author, Nick Amies, delves into the wildest excesses of rock 'n' roll, including mega-stardom, mass adoration, and a media backlash. Through this period of chaos and change, Oasis's story is one of unbridled energy and reckless abandon. This book offers a unique perspective on the band's history, from the all-conquering Knebworth shows to the madness and chaos of their 1997 world tour.
