So much oasis hate haha

forum.blur.co.uk

tbh i hate how some blur fans hate oasis and vice-versa just because they think they have to because of the oasis/blur feud in the 90s or that you can't possibly be a fan of both.

anyways carry on, haha

For the Love of Cheese!!!

Oasis and Blur are set to make a special cheese together.

The British bands - who were fierce pop rivals in the 90s - are huge fans of
the savory snack and Blur bassist Alex James wants them to team up to
create their own brand.

James, who is now a dairy farmer and cheese maker, has invited his band's
lead singer Damon Albarn and Oasis stars Noel and Liam Gallagher to his
Cotswolds cheese factory so they can start working on a special cheese for
next month's BRIT Awards.

A source said: "Damon and Alex have always been enthusiastic about cheese -
it was the glue that held Blur together for so long.

"But it wasn't until recently that Alex discovered Liam and Noel shared
their obsession. So he had the masterplan of creating something constructive
through the medium of cheese, which would mark their maturity."

James believes the prestigious music event, to be held at London's Earl's
Court, would be the perfect place to showcase the cheese and is hoping it
will be offered as a dessert alternative during the dinner.

James is thoroughly enjoying his life as a farmer, even though it is a far
cry from his days as a glamorous pop star.

He said: "From hard drugs to soft cheese! That's me. From boozy, vegetarian
vampire of the Groucho Club in London to rural sober family man.

"It's amazing, the friends you can make, just through cheese. People get
very emotional about it."

I definitely see the appeal of britpop and the britpop males. I think it somehow epitomises the slightly gloomy, overly "real", fierce nihilism of the early to mid 90s, which is a section in time I've always had a sentimental soft spot for, even though I'm almost too young to remember it. There is something about the very rugged, often quirky and sometimes almost lumberjack-esque mannishness of many of the britpop men (yes, I am including the Gallagher duo in there), e.g. slightly bashed-looking nose, fierce expressions, prominent features etc. that holds a sort of animalistic appeal and attraction for me.

Justine Frischmann... sigh... what a lucky chick. She had Damon Albarn AND Brett Anderson fighting over her.
