SUMMARY:John Robb: 'Live Forever: The Rise\, Fall\, and Resurrection of Oasis' - Oasis Week Q&A
DESCRIPTION:For those in the mood for a Talk Tonight\, on 15th July\, expect to find esteemed Northern music journalist and frontman of the Membranes / Goldblade JOHN ROBB in-conversation about his brand new book ‘Live Forever: The Rise\, Fall\, and Resurrection of Oasis’ at Manchester Central Library. \nPart of “Oasis Week” at Central Library\, John will be appearing in-person for an intimate talk and Q&A with local tour guide and Oasis expert Joe Feeley about the book in the Henry Watson Music Library. \n‘Live Forever…’ promises a rollercoaster ride through the Gallagher brothers’ turbulent lives and the music that defined a generation. And John Robb was there every step of the way. \nIn this\, the definitive book on Britain’s biggest band\, he peels back the layers of Manchester’s best-known musical export\, revealing a tale of ambition\, ego\, talent and a whole lot of attitude. From the estates of South Manchester to the dizzying heights of global stardom\, Live Forever is a rollercoaster ride through the Gallagher brothers’ turbulent lives and the music that defined a generation. But it is also a portrait of Britain around the turn of the millennium and the cultural forces and places that shaped\, and were shaped by\, two cocksure upstarts from Burnage – from art to fashion\, and from football to politics. \nPlayful\, funny and irreverent\, and drawing on dozens of interviews and first-hand stories\, this book puts Oasis squarely in the pantheon of music royalty as the last great rock ’n’ roll stars. \nThe Q&A will be chaired by local tour guide Joe Feeley. Alongside his expert tours of Manchester city centre\, Joe also leads the legendary Rock And Goal Tour and has recently launched the Wonderwalk Oasis Tour. A musician and guide with real Oasis pedigree\, Joe grew up with the Gallaghers\, was in school with Liam and Noel\, and their families in Ireland also share history. His Wonderwalk tour offers a deep dive into Oasis’s roots and the wider Manchester music scene\, and his personal connection to the band means he has insights and stories you won’t hear anywhere else. \n \nJoe and John will be chatting about ‘Live Forever: The Rise\, Fall\, and Resurrection of Oasis’ and more at Manchester Central Library on Tuesday 15 July. \nCopies will be available at the event courtesy of Blackwells\, and John will be available for signings after the event. \nTickets are free\, but any donations to the library warmly welcomed. \nTickets available from 10AM on Friday 20 June:\nJohn Robb: ‘Live Forever: The Rise\, Fall\, and Resurrection of Oasis’ Q&A Tickets\, Tue\, Jul 15\, 2025 at 6:00 PM | Eventbrite\n \n \n****** \n“Oasis Week” at Central Library is part of the Manchester City Council ‘MCR Live 25‘ – a summer of music\, art\, markets\, and unforgettable vibes all summer long.
