'Lord Don't Slow Me Down'

'Lord Don't Slow Me Down'
oasisinet.com - news
13 August 2007

On 29th October Oasis release a brand new live DVD film

What happens when a film maker follows one of the world's biggest bands on a year long world tour? What happens when the film maker is granted unique access to that band, is present for the ups and downs, the moments of greatness and the periods of the same interview in 10 different languages in as many days? What happens when that band is Oasis, travelling across 26 countries on their biggest world tour to date playing to a total of over 2 million people?

The answer is 'Lord Don't Slow Me Down', a double DVD set that not only gives you the definitive feature length documentary seen in selected cinemas last year, but also the option of voice over commentaries from the band, a Noel Gallagher Q & A session with fans from New York City, out takes from the film, and a second 90 minute disc capturing the band's homecoming show at Manchester City's Eastlands Stadium together with footage sent in by fans from around the world who attended that show. If you wanted to know what the members of Oasis make of their lives on tour and their audience, then the answers are on these two discs.

Directed by Baillie Walsh who has previously worked with Massive Attack (he made 'Safe From Harm'), Spiritualised, New Order and Kylie's Slow, and is now working on a film with Daniel Craig, this DVD set is a compendium of Oasis entertainment par excellence.

'Lord Don't Slow Me Down' contents:

Disc One:

  • Feature length documentary tour film 'Lord Don't Slow Me Down' in stereo and surround sound.
  • Bonus audio commentary - Noel, Liam, Andy and Gem guide you through the film with their recollections of the tour.
  • A Noel Gallagher Q&A session with fans runs alongside out-takes from the film.

Disc 2:

  • Oasis live at City of Manchester Stadium on 2nd July 2005 - sixteen classic tracks shot in HD with stereo and surround sound.
  • Disc 2 also features unique footage and pictures sent in by fans who attended the concert.

'Lord Don't Slow Me Down' is released on 29th October 2007. Oasis are currently preparing a brand new album for release in 2008.

Who's the best northener?

Big Northern Vote
The Lowry - Art and Entertainment
August 11, 2007.


To involve people in the very popular The Myth of the North exhibition – a celebration of all things Northern currently on display until November 4th – The Lowry has been asking gallery visitors to nominate their favourite people, places and things from across the North of England.

Hundreds of people have already joined in – and the most popular choices are being used to create a special Northern 'Hall of Fame' within the exhibition.

But because not everyone can get to see The Myth of The North and vote in person, The Lowry has created this online poll where you can vote for all your favourite things Northern.

To help make it easier, we have already created shortlists based on the visitor suggestions we have received so far.

To vote simply click on the categories below, click in the circle next to the short-listed person, place or thing that you feel best sums up the North and click Vote.

Thanks for taking the time to get involved - and we will publish the final results here in October.

Bill Longshaw
Curator, The Myth of the North

PS - We haven't been able to include everyone's choices because there are just so many – so please forgive us if your personal favourite isn't listed.

Don't forget to press your Back button to return to the list once you have voted in a category. You can return and vote again up to once a day to make sure your favourite's a winner.

applefrancesmacdormanicole - c'mon, you've got to be kidding!

Wow, the above picture features one of the most striking resemblances that I have ever seen!, Nicole Appleton and Frances McDormand (Academy Award Winner for Best Actress in a Leading Role for the movie Fargo) are long lost sisters!, every feature in each of their faces is identical, the shape of the face, the eyelids, the eyes, the forehead, the nose, the mouth, the chin, etc., etc., etc., is like they are twins!, they could even pass for the same person!, the only problem is that Mrs. McDormand plays roles of very unattractive women on screen, so, what is Liam doing with her twin?, specially because Appleton doesn't have any talent which is the BIG difference between her and McDormand!, Liam you deserve a beauty, and a brainy and talented beauty at that... you deserve me!

Sincerely, Flor.

See the full album tracklist

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the release of The Beatles' legendary album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, multi award-winning engineer Geoff Emerick heads back into the studio to demonstrate the innovative techniques employed for the recording at Abbey Road studios back in 1967.

Part 2: Hear Oasis, Stereophonics, The Zutons and Jamie Cullum joining Geoff to witness and discuss how he first recorded the album tracks, as they record their own interpretations of one of the famous tracks, using the original analogue 4-track equipment.

Talking to BBC News about the recording, Noel Gallagher said: "Sgt. Pepper is special for me because I was born on the 29 May, and it came out on the 1 June, so when I was being born in St Mary's Hospital, Manchester, it was being played on hospital radio..... and it still contains some of the greatest Beatles songs, like A Day in the Life, and Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds."

Part 1 of the documentary featured the Kaiser Chiefs, The Magic Numbers, Bryan Adams, Razorlight, The Fray and Travis.

Album Tracklist
The final tracks covered were as follows:

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - Bryan Adams
With A Little Help From My Friends - Razorlight

Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds - Athlete
Getting Better - Kaiser Chiefs

Fixing A Hole - The Fray
She’s Leaving Home - Magic Numbers

Being For The Benefit Of Mr Kite - Jamie Cullum
Within You Without You - Oasis

When I'm Sixty Four - Russell Brand
Lovely Rita - Travis

Good Morning Good Morning - The Zutons
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise) -
Stereophonics

Noel's not rolling in style

The Sun Online - Victoria Newton's Bizarre
June 11, 2007

SOME Might Say NOEL GALLAGHER is losing grip of his rebellious, rock star roots.

The OASIS star was spotted at a Volkswagen showroom picking out a family-friendly Golf with pregnant missus SARA MacDONALD. Non-driver Noel has owned a rare £100,000 Jaguar.

I know which motor I'd rather Roll With
