Cooley I can remember reading some mad facts about Oasis at their peak, and it was something like 1 in 3 households owned an Oasis album and 1 in 10 of the country had tried for tickets for the Knebworth gigs. I appreciate that these where stats and not actual facts, but that's mad.
I can remember the summer of '96 I think, and the majority of lads aged between 16 and 30 that i encountered, had turned simian mancunian/mancunian simian; walked with a swagger, referred to any male friend/relation as 'Ar Kid', used phrases like 'nice one' & 'mad fer it', wore ralph lauren polo shirts, stone island jumpers & jackets and grew their hair like ian brown. Those Penfield cagoules were everywhere for about 3 months after Noel wore one.
