Our Man In Japan

Are Oasis trying to break in Japan?

Oasis; great live, but so-so albums. I thought they'd had enough of touring and settled for being having sales gentley ticking over back home. I mean, they tried so hard to break America but came away with nothing more than a different line-up.

So, what makes me think they're getting itchy feet and want to break Japan? Well, in recent weeks I've seen Sony use Oasis to sell their latest mini-mp3 player (very strange it was to listen to 'Don't Look Back in Anger' on tiny earphone from a tiny player in a massive Japanese Electronics shop). Then today I saw this article on Japan Times about Noel playing an acoustic for the launch of MySpace Japan.

Oasis at next year's Fuji Rock anyone?

If they play Fuji Rock I'm gonna go up to the gondola to play with the hippies during that set.

Hey Debs! Defo wanna come in January, if only to show off my new board (if I ever get round to buying it!).

Still no snow yet, but I have to study so I'm not disappointed. We better have loads of the stuff come December though!!
