Description:

Oasis: Liam Gallagher (vocals); Noel Gallagher (guitar, background vocals); Gem (guitar); Andy Bell (bass); Alan White (drums).
Recorded live at Wembley Stadium, London, England on July 21, 2000.
Rife with tossed-off obscenities, FAMILIAR TO MILLIONS captures Manchester`s favorite sons shining in an element whose dynamic vibe is as much a result of the crowd`s rabid feedback as it is of the band`s tight delivery. Opening with the shambling sample-heavy instrumental "F**kin` In The Bushes," Oasis takes an electrifying stroll through their canon focusing heavily on their first two albums, DEFINITELY MAYBE and (WHAT`S THE STORY) MORNING GLORY. For a change, frontman Liam Gallagher is on his best behavior which means he stayed on stage for the whole show, admonished brother Noel to write more songs like "Supersonic" as his mates kicked into the intro and dedicated "Cigarettes & Alcohol" to the rowdies in the front row.
In addition to playing larger-than-life versions of "Live Forever" and the B-Sides "Acquiesce" and "Step Out," Oasis flipped off the bad-boy switch long enough to deliver a stunning reading of "Don`t Look Back In Anger" that attained another level thanks to the stadium full of fans providing the chorus. A neat trifecta of "Champagne Supernova" along with covers of The Beatles ("Helter Skelter") and Neil Young ("Hey Hey, My My [Into The Black]") neatly provides an over-the-top encore.
