Band's former insiders on fame

story of Oasis
Former Oasis tour manager Iain Robertson and ex-Creation Records MD Tim Abbot speak to Sky News about their time with the band.

Lifting the lid on the story of Oasis and the Gallagher brothers is perhaps a difficult promise to make.

Twenty-five years on from when it all started, the Britpop glory-day highs and the break-up lows, the partying, the fall-outs and traded insults, the drugs, the fights, the cancelled shows, the smashed teeth; it has all been well documented.

Not least in Supersonic in 2016, the documentary which charted the band in their halcyon period up to the record-breaking gigs at Knebworth in 1996, the biggest the UK had ever seen at the time.

The film followed the band's meteoric rise and delved into the soap opera that is the fractious relationship between Noel and Liam.

Clean water is scarce. The minimarkets are looted everywhere." Indonesia’s Metro TV on Sunday broadcast footage from a coastal community in Donggala, close to the epicentre of the quake, where some waterfront homes appeared crushed but a resident said most people fled to higher ground after the quake struck. "When it shook really hard, we all ran up into the hills," a ...
