Noel Gallagher

Noel Gallagher is a first-rate songwriter - responsible for all of the classic OASIS material. On his tour for his second solo album (released under the "Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds" moniker), he drew from both solo releases as well as some Oasis classics and B-Sides. His band was tight and the audience was on its feet throughout the entire show.

Great show, great sound quality, and a good mix of new solo tunes and Oasis classics. This was the first rock show for my 10-year-old son, and he loved it. Noel had some good banter with the crowd between songs and seemed to be enjoying the show himself. Played for nearly two hours and played nearly the entire new album. His backing band and horn section was really solid and tight, although the lead guitar could have used a bit of a volume boost. Seats were towards the back, but it's such a cool, small theater that there isn't a bad seat in the house. Staff was very friendly and helpful... just a great time overall.

The show started late. However, there was an explanation for that given by a lady over the PA. MONA the first band rocked! They are from Nashville, TN making waves across the US with Noel. I've seen them twice and both times were great. When Noel finally took the stage at 10 p.m., everyone came alive. Noel walked on stage, without a soundcheck and played 19 songs straight like it was nothing! He definitely described his tardiness having to drive 6.5 hours in a car from Los Angeles to Vegas for the show. We heard most if not all of the new Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds album and a good mixture of Oasis B-sides and fan favorites. No Wonderwall though, but Whatever instead! Whatever was a single release as a stand alone in England in 1994. Never put on a studio album. Always a favorite in Japan. Noel played it in Vegas! Supersonic was played acoustically also.

Noel was fantastic as always. He played a great mix of Oasis songs, Oasis b-sides and HFB songs (plus one, Freaky Teeth, from his album next year). Not much in the way of interaction with the crowd, but he was funny as always. What impressed me most was the sound quality in the venue. Everything was crystal clear and just fantastic.

Noel Gallagher was out of this world. They played all the best tracks of the new album combined with some of the best Oasis hits to make it an unforgettable night!

AMAZING! AMAZING! AMAZING! AMAZING! AMAZING! AMAZING!

Brilliant! Perhaps best gigs we've been to this year. Noel surpassed Oasis with an ace band who did justice to Noel's writing. Old and new. This is best he's been since the early days of Oasis. Before they started replacing members for cosmetic, not musical, reasons. All the members played wonderfully. No one stole the thunder from their bandmates. Unlike the forgettable and overly predicitable, Beady Eye, this had staying power. I left the gig high as a kite just from the power of the music. Been a while since that's happened!

just when you think you wont ever hear oasis tunes again....im happily proved wrong

Noel showed there was very much life without his brother and after all they were always his songs anyway. Great venue and a great vibe from both the audience and the band. Noel came across like he was there to enjoy himself and that sets the mood. The audience was predominantly white male and had the atmosphere of an English soccer match with chanting etc which was always the way with Oasis gigs.

I went both nights of his stop in NY. Both amazing.

This show was awesome! I would go again in a heart beat

I didn't know what to expect from this but it was fantastic. Noel Gallagher is as talented a rock star as you'll find anywhere and a storming 20 song set was as good value for money as you'll find anywhere. A must see.

Amazing show. Noel played songs from his new album and sang Oasis songs. The whole crowd sang along.

I went to this show with my girl and we both thought the venue was beautiful and mesh that with Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds makes an amazing evening, I've been to a few shows over the years and definately can tell if the sounds not right, lightings off etc etc. This venue was just about perfect for a band like Noel's sound had a bit of static during heavier songs but still amazing overall...

Noel Gallagher with his solo project incarnation Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds played a terrific concert at the Tabernacle in Atlanta in front of an adoring sold out crowd. His new material was performed with gusto and was as well received as the old Oasis classics.

It was an amazing show, to say the least. The most amazing part was getting to meet him afterwards. All the years I've been an Oasis fan, all the music, the videos, the magazine articles I've read, the interviews I've listened to... and now to be able to say the man was right in front of me, signed and autograph for me and I touched his hand... there are no words. Each song he performed he did so to perfection, and there was great in between song banter with the crowd. I loved it so much I bought tickets to see him again in Indianapolis in a couple of days. Hope to meet him again there.

Great set; crowd was into it. I enjoyed Philly a little more, but maybe only because that my was my first Noel solo show.

It was to put it simply, amazing! Noel sounds the same live as he does on the album. Perfect mix of new songs and old Oasis songs. My best concert ever :)

As expected Noel Gallagher put on an amazing show. His voice was impeccable as always. I was pleased he included some Oasis songs from different time periods. I have seen Oasis live several times before and although I miss them, it was just as incredible seeing Mr. Noel Gallagher do his thing.

Excellent show with excellent sound and videos. Great rapport with audience. "Champagne Supernova" was one of the best singalongs I've ever experience.

Loved the way he pointed out that all the songs he played were written by him (including Oasis songs) and thought it was cool that he was so loyal to the Brits. Was impressed with a new guitar each song and the level of technical and professional focus throughout the concert. He sounds great, maybe even better than his brother - less nasal. I went as a moderate fan and left as a huge fan.

I am a Oasis fan and this is the second time I see Noel playing solo and he keeps getting better and better with time

Honestly the best concert I've been to. Great venue and great music. I would love for Oasis to get back together, but Noel is absolutely killing it on his own.

Noel was great. The band sounded tight, the singing was spot on, and the set list was perfect. Beyond the music he was entertaining as hell when he engaged the audience. As funny as you've seen him for the last 20 odd years. To boot the actual venue was pretty nice.

This was truly an unforgettable event. Many bands, musicians, and "artists" in today's music world simply lack the class and performing power that Noel Gallagher possesses. I waited by the stage door before the show and he came out and signed autographs with not only me, but other fans as well. Mr. Gallagher is such a nice person and it's not only touching but impressive that he actually takes the time out of his schedule to meet and greet his fans-all without selling a premium backstage pass like many other artists do. The venue was gorgeous, the Boston Opera House is a work of art in itself, and the acoustics were amazing. Noel came on stage and played his set, while often taking breaks to speak to the audience. It felt like he was there to play to the audience and have a good time, not so he could get paid or because he had to. The staff were also very polite, one techie was nice enough to give me the set list for the night. Even if you don't know his music, if you ever have the chance to see Noel Gallagher, take it.

He is brilliant. All his songs are good. The only issue he likely faces is which songs he should do because he's been a brilliant songwriter for 20+ years and has written many classics.

Excellent concert. Good location, theater was not very big so able to see from any seat

I like Oasis but sometimes you just have to accept and move on. Noel is an amazing songwriter and performer with an excellent band and does not need to look back. I saw Beady Eye in concert and I can tell you that Liam needs Noel but Noel is doing just fine on his own. In fact, reunions are usually disappointing and if you don't need the money you're better off looking forward. And I like that his music is not Oasis 2.0 but that he includes a few old hits. He's also smart and witty.

Unbelievable gig, he knows how to put on a good show

Yes, Mr. Gallagher didn't disappoint at all! Amazing show. He was a little late due to a flight out of L.A. being cancelled. So they had to hire a car and drive him 6 hours through the desert and get him to the show an hour late. No soundcheck, just walks on stage plugs in and plays for an hour and a half! Legend! With only a Burger King value meal on his stomach too! All the great Noel classic songs mixed with most of the new album bar Stop The Clocks. Sound was great! I had 3rd row seats. Great night with my buddy who lives in Vegas!

I wasn't really expecting to enjoy this concert as much as I did, but he is excellent!!! Highly recommended!!!

Best Show I've EVER Been too! Noel Gallagher is so talented!!!

I am an Oasis fan and have recently enjoyed listening to Noel's new band and first album. Going to the concert and hearing some Oasis songs and Noel's album live was phenomenal. The Pearl and the Palms Las Vegas was the perfect venue. I wish I would have gotten closer seats, it definitely would have been worth the extra money. Best concert of my life so far. I can't wait to see him again.

Noel Gallagher is MUCH BETTER live than his brother Liam. Noel sings very clear and his lyrics over power his guitar, drums & key board sounds. He's worth EVERY SINGLE CENT you spend to go see him. NOEL really is a gifted guy and a REALLY NICE GUY.

Despite the short delay at the start (which actually helped me) definitely worth waiting for and a brilliant show.

Noel was amazing-- played great songs- both solo and oasis hits.. Bantered with the crowd- seen him too many times to count- never seen him happier . Sounded amazing.. and seemed to have a great time with the crowd..

Noel was amazing. His flight was canceled so he got in a car and drove 6.5 hours to be there and I will be forever grateful. His band was tight and he was spot on. I LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT!

Noel's recipe for success is delivering the goods time and time again. He's assembled a fantastic supporting cast with his High Flying Birds and as the concert went on, the spotlight shone on them as much as him. Mikey Rowe's work on the Melotron was amazing and Jeremy Stacey's drumming seemed laughibly effortless throughout the show. While Oasis only featured Liam and Noel on vocals, Noel has bassist Russell Pritchard and guitarist Tim Smith incorporated on songs at all times. I've seen Oasis/Beady Eye at a bunch of different venues and I have to say that Noel's new lineup sounded better now than anything in the past. As for the venue, The Pearl's acoustics were very good for the guitar laden group, however I would say that opening act Mona had the sound just a bit off for their speedier songs. That may have been a soundboard issue more than the theater, though. Overall, amazing night!

Even when the show started much later because of a flight cancellation, Noel largely compensated the wait and played an amazing show. I enjoyed all new songs and Oasis best hits. I strongly recommend this show.

What an event. Noel showed up a tad late but it didn't matter. He and the band rocked it. The venue was better than I expected. Noel is my personal favorite artist. So this was a big show for me. Of course, the show was incredible. The opening act, MONA, was very, very good. I downloaded their album a day later.

somewhat boring mix of mid-tempo songs. sound mix was poor...couldn't near the drummer.

Noel Gallagher sounded perfect. The new album is outstanding and it was great hearing a lot of Oasis songs. Would have loved to hear a couple more classics, but I can't really complain too much. :-) Mona was a great as the opening act too. All around, a pretty awesome concert.

The show was amazing. Noel's voice was in great form, and his new band are very good. The setlist had a great mix of Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds and Oasis material. There were great moments of banter between Noel and the crowd. The only problem was the jerks in the crowd yelling out for Liam and calling out for Oasis songs that it was clear he wasn't going to play. Oasis is my favorite band of all time, but if Noel keeps putting out great records and performing awesome shows like this one I for one would not be disappointed. Worth every penny, and then some.

I found Noel to be aloof and I understand that this might be his persona and so I accept it. His album has a wonderful sound to it and the band reproduced that well. The highlight for me were the Oasis songs, especially "Don't Look Back in Anger."

The theatre was beautiful. Noel is definitely doing what he wants on his solo career, he played most of the songs on his solo album + mostly B sides of his Oasis career. The acustic version of Supersoni was absolutely sick!! Loved it!

I had a blast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rock n roll!!!!

I have been an Oasis fan since 1995 and seeing Oasis live in Phoenix in 2005 was amazing! Seeing Noel was equally as amazing, if not better in some ways. The genius of Oasis is finally shining on his own! Noel was funny, bantering with the crowd and blowing us away with his solo tunes. He also did some Oasis songs, which, let's face it...all Oasis fans love to sing along at the top of our lungs! And that we did! Well, the true fans sang along with every song he performed. Overall, it was a fantastic show with Noel at the top of his game, sounding better than ever and leaving me with a high that won't soon go away! I hope he keeps coming back to play in Arizona...

I've seen amazing performances, and this one was worthy of high marks. All the tunes were well executed, and the light show really seduced me, but I walked away thinking it should have been more about the music in the end (the band as a whole needs to develop their own presence rather than rely so much on effects). I think the audience was more into it than Noel anticipated. He started loosening up with the incredibly rowdy fans later in the performance, when at points it became a raucous group sing-along. Entirely appropriate to his anthem-style of music composition. All-in-all it was a delicious moment in rock history; to be in the presence of greatness (minus Liam & Co.).

Amazing show (no wonderfully though) The importance of being idle, supersonic, little by little were all excellent!

In my eyes, Noel Gallagher totally redeemed himself. He was such a jerk at the 91x Wrex the Halls show (admittedly, the crowd didn't seem too interested, at least until they played an Oasis song) but he was funny, engaged and the group put on a good show.

Excellent show by NGHFB! Great set list and fantastic performance. Venue was great and created an awesome atmosphere.

Good show, poor mix. Lead vocals disappeared completely on occasion.

Incredible! This has been one of the most memorable concerts I've been to and the best thing to come out of this year. Thanks Noel for this amazing experience!

Second only to Bruce Springsteen! Awesome Concert.

Great show, 20 ft from the stage and the sound was sweet. Noel's interaction with the crowd was cool and kept us laughing. I thought my wife was going to cry she was so happy to be there. I'm a huge Oasis fan and can now only hope they get back together one day.

Noel is the ultimate professional. The title pretty much says it all!

Featuring a great blend of both solo songs and Oasis favorites, I can't recommend seeing Noel on this tour enough.

First of all, I'm a HUGE Noel Gallagher fan. I've been saying for years he should go solo. But seeIng him in this fantastic little venue made it all worthwhile, driving 9 hrs! Great time!

The venue was small, in a good way. There were about nine rows of seats and the remaining area was standing room only. Noel was amazing the entire night, engaging with the crowd and perfoming above expectations. If I had one complaint, it was that he didn't sing more; the setlist was large(like 20 songs), but I just wanted more. I saw Oasis in Chicago in 2005(great concert), but this blew that away. I will go to another concert at this venue, it helped make this concert special by providing the perfect atmosphere.

Great show as usual from "The Chief" - his set-list was a tremendous mix of his new "High Flying Birds" material and some of his best songs from his time with "Oasis". Was a little surprised he didn't include Wonderwall but he replaced it with Whatever - so it's all good!

Really enjoyed this concert. Noel still has a great voice and I enjoyed the Oasis songs and B-sides. Would definitely recommend seeing his new band. It is on par with an Oasis concert

Very disappointed that Wonderwall was not part of the setlist. Otherwise, decent show.

Mostly new stuff with a good bit of Oasis. Very good show.

Totally loved Noel...excellent show, good venue..great location

Noel was in great form. The set list was fantastic, including some great Oasis B-sides (Talk Tonight, Whatever, Half the World Away). New Flying Birds tracks sounded great live.

Wow words cannot express how good this show was! Crowd was great, setlist was amazing, and he played whatever

Tons of old Oasis songs, as well as the new HFB album. Wonderful show!

1-Venue: The Beacon Theatre is a great venue, looks small from the outside but looks very glamorous and comfortable inside. 2-The Band: This is not Oasis, but I think is as close as it gets. As a fan, I've heard many Oasis songs with Noel's voice. So, having the chance to hear some of our fav songs again was amazing. Noel's new songs are very good, especially if you enjoy great melodies and well made lyrics. Some songs could use Liam's voice, but overall, the mix of old and new songs was balanced and the crowd was loving every bit of it. 3-I have to say I was impressed with how many songs they delivered in a single concert. They didn't wasted any time trying to look like rock stars. They just proved it with every song.

Noel's new songs are good, but his old songs (Supersonic, Wonderwall and Don't Look Back in Anger) are superb and worth the price of admission. Royce Hall is a great place to see a show, with good sight lines and good acoustics. Noel's light show really detracted from the show. The bright lights at the back of the stage were pointed straight into the faces of the audience. I don't like being blinded every ten seconds.

Lots of Oasis, but new take. Noel is entertaining, talking to the audience, even if it's hard to understand him. Fun!
