The fact that people out there can't afford their energy bills and there's other idiots paying hundreds to see Oasis do the same songs in the same order with the same support act again makes me feel ill.

This is obviously different and perfectly fine if it's an act you like, aye?

What does this statement supposed to mean?

Do you want them to, instead of buying Oasis tickets, give the money to the people who can't afford their energy bull instead

No. 

We live in a world where not everyone can afford their energy bills. 

People will pay hundreds of pounds to go and see the same Oasis gig they saw two years ago. 

Taking those two seperate thoughts and juxtaposing them makes me feel uneasy as they're two things that shouldn't exist in the same society. 

It's not the fault of the people buying the tickets (although in my opinion they are mugs but that's irrelevant to my point). Its the point of the billionaires and media that have created a Britain where energy bills are unaffordable to many but crazily expensive Oasis tickets are affordable to many others. 

Its a world of inequality brought into focus.

The world is, has been and forever will be inequal.

So many of us are cosy in our houses while people live in huts in other countries and drink dirty water. Others are homeless.

Some people get to go on holidays. Others cant.

If some people choose to work hard and spend their money on Oasis tickets then what's the problem? 

You're looking for something that will never exist.

Maybe it won't. But hoping for it isn't a bad thing.

Okay, but you know it was a Blur tune that was in those British Gas adverts right?

Considering the largesse of the millionaire and billionaire class, it feels mad to begrudge ordinary people a couple of hundred quid on singing along to their favourite britpop anthems.

There are a lot of reasons to hate the Oasis reunion, but i'm not sure one is it being an emblem of a bourgeois upper class moving ever further from the starving lower classes.

They're just shit.

I've seen more people moaning about them and bragging that they aren't going to a show they're not forced to even look up news for, than I have people excited. 

This one is a cash grab, nothing more. It won't feel as magical as Live '25 because how could it? But I hope everyone who does go enjoys it, never mind that mardy guy.
