I’m off to watch Whitney Houston in her 2010 tour. She is touring the UK next year and I’m off to the MEN Arena in Manchester after snapping up my Whitney Tickets on Viagogo. The Whitney Houston Tickets for the MEN Arena are available on most websites now, and the concert is on the 9th of April in Manchester.
My girlfriend really likes her music, and I know most of the classic Whitney tracks so thought I may as well get tickets and see what it’s like. I must admit that secretly (or now rather publically) I’m actually quite excited and looking forward to it. I’ve previously seen Oasis, Radiohead, The Eagles, Paul Weller, Manchester Versus Cancer, Kasabian and many other acts at the MEN, so Whitney Houston Tickets at the MEN Arena is a new experience for me. Hopefully she’ll live up to her legendary status as a true pop legend and put on a diva like show for everyone to enjoy.
I’m a Mancunian, and you’ve guessed it, I’m an Oasis fan. A massive fan. I’ve followed them through the ’90s Brit-Pop era, and into the new millenium. I’ve got all the albums, all the T-Shirts from gigs, and have seen them in small venues to the largest. Oasis will live forever.
I think Liam Gallagher has one of the most recognisable voices in world music and the split of the two brothers from Burnage, Manchester is a loss to rock n roll.
I think one of the best gigs they ever did were the Wembley Stadium gigs back in the late 1990s. As well as Finsbury Park in London, and Old Trafford Cricket Ground, plus the now infamous Knebworth gig which broke records for attendance. They love the fans, and the fans love them – that’s what truly great bands are all about.
Oasis Will Live Forever
Leicester rock n roll band Kasabian have been around for a few years now, already on their third album, but they are now classed very much as a headline act. I remember seeing the boys from the midlands in their early days at a very small gig in Manchester, at the Academy 3 (one of the smaller rooms at the University of Manchester). At the time, Tom reminded me of Mick Jagger, the way he strutted round the stage, clapping his hands. He has probably the best stage presence since Liam Gallagher graced the stage for Oasis, and a recent gig I went to not so long ago at the MEN Arena in Manchester showed that Kasabian have definitely arrived. I’ve also seen them at Oxygen festival in Dublin at the time their first album was out.
They openly admit to having dreamed of following bands like Oasis who were their childhood heroes (and have supported them on tour). With Tom and Serge as the forefront of the band, I think they’ll go from strength to strength over the next decade.
Leicester lads Tom, Serge and clan will dominate with Kasabian over the next decade!
