What's the Story? What were u up to 16 years ago?

It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

What's the Story? What were u up to 16 years ago?

Post by Rugby Gooner »

This is a slightly pissed response to the "This place is shit" thread on "Arsenal Chat."
16 years ago today,I was at Earls Court,watching the proper line up of Oasis!
It was 1995,Britpop was in its pomp,me and my mate Lee Chapman,(no,not the football player and alledged Leslie Ash beater),but a mod from Crawley,were there to see them the day that Wonderwall entered the charts,(at number two).
The Bootleg Beatles were the support band,and they came on again for the encore,which was of course,"I am the Walrus."
The memories are random and quality:- loads of Mancs doing lines of coke in the Wimpy on Exhibition Road,the firworks flying around the inside of Earls Court,me producing a "Camberwell Carrot" for Champagne Supernova,and passing it around,(where were you when we were getting high?),even the "Steward" had a couple ot tugs on it!!!
Then Liam,(I know he's a *word censored*),standing at the edge of the stage at the end,with the feedback swirling around the place,a can of Stella in one hand,the other around an "Elvis" belt buckle.
It was all downhill for them after that!!!
Noel,Liam,Guigsy,Bonehead,and Alan White.....OASIS!!!

I was five so would most likely be running around, talking gibberish and stopping only to soil myself.

So pretty much same as now :barscarf:

Shit, I was at that gig with my girlfriend of the time. We were up in the seats. The sound was awful up there and I thought they were a bit rubbish. Only good thing I remember was our seat was level with the stage and could see backstage.

I was at the Saturday gig at Earls Court.

Arsenal beat Man U 1-0 earlier in the day with a goal from Bergkamp, first season with us. Got the picadilly line over to Earls Court after that and then went onto what is still probably the best Oasis gig I've been to.

Fucking great night with Noel doing a mini acoustic set including Wonderwall.

Class.

That was the weekend we played man u, was at the game with my bro and sister who both went to the gig after the game.....i was too young, well they just didnt get me a ticket. We won 1-0 bergkamp. The next day the sunday I accidently put my hand through a pain of glass cutting my wrist open really badly. Had cut all the tendons in my arm and spent most of the next week in hospital. 8)

Yeah I covered that Bren. :roll:

So what have we learnt.

You have an arm that can't ***** anymore.

You like aggressive sports.

You are sexually frustrated.

Aaah, it's just like the good old days. :lol:

My post above yours. Talked about the 95 Man U game. the 95 Oasis Gig.

I missed your gammy arm, I assumed it was the wanking arm.

I ribbed you about the boxing. Then I taunted your sexual aggression.

And finally made a joke about how it used to be here 3 odd years ago.

You know in relation to my "This place is shit thread"

Keep up numb nuts. :wink:
