Oasis - Champagne Supernova Live Performance at Rosemont Horizon, Chicago
In December 1999, Oasis performed a memorable live set at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, just outside Chicago, showcasing their classic hit 'Champagne Supernova.' This concert came shortly after the band released their third studio album, 'Be Here Now,' in 1997, which, despite receiving mixed reviews, still showcased the band's anthemic sound and their larger-than-life persona. By the time of this performance, Oasis was riding high from the success of their previous albums, cementing their place in the Britpop movement. Interestingly, the video captures a period when the band's dynamic was shifting; tensions were palpable among band members, especially between Noel and Liam Gallagher. This live performance is a delightful snapshot of their appeal, contrasting the band's soaring melodies with the undercurrents of division that would later come to overshadow their success.
