Oasis

In July 2002, Oasis rocked the Witnness Festival in Ireland, showcasing their unfolding legacy. By this time, they had just released 'Heathen Chemistry,' their fourth studio album, which had reached number one in the UK charts shortly before the festival. The album signaled a slight shift, blending their signature Britpop sound with more mature themes and experimentation. Interestingly, this performance came at a pivotal point in their career, as the band faced scrutiny over internal tensions and the pressures of fame. Yet, the energy of the crowd and the band's dynamic performance melted away doubts, showcasing tracks like 'Songbird' and 'Little by Little.' This live recording not only captures their electrifying stage presence but also marks a crucial moment when they were trying to reaffirm their relevance in the evolving music scene of the early 2000s, proving that they were still a force to be reckoned with.
