Oasis

By 2001, Oasis had released their critically acclaimed album 'Standing on the Shoulder of Giants,' which marked a pivotal moment in their career. Just months prior to the festival performance, the album had hit the shelves, showcasing a blend of new musical directions with Liam Gallagher's distinct vocals and Noel Gallagher's sharp songwriting. The Fuji Rock Festival gig occurred during a time when the band was navigating changes in their lineup and sound, making this performance particularly significant. Playing in the stunning Naeba Ski Resort, the band captured the audience with exuberant energy, channeling the festival's electric atmosphere. Interestingly, Noel once called this set one of his favorites, noting how the glorious scenery matched their powerful sound. The band's live energy here reflects their ability to turn even a fleeting moment into a memorable experience for fans, further solidifying their legacy.
