A possible set list for the Wembley Oasis concerts. Judging by the length of the songs, i'm a bit disappointed and have a feeling the band won't be on stage for very long. I'm used to Iron Maiden gigs whereby the band is on stage for at least two hours, so the fans get their money's worth. Songbird is very short and I wish Acquiesce was in there. However, I'm glad they might play Masterplan! I'm going to create a playlist of these songs on my iPod and see how long it takes for me to play it from start to finish. I have no idea if there is going to be a back-up band before Oasis are on stage.

This is a great new rock band from Finland. I discovered them while trawling through Myspace one day and thought they were great! A melodic combination of keyboard and guitar that somehow reminds me of Asia! Anyway this is their new vid!
Eye In The Sky by The Alan Parsons Project live in 1995.
The Alan Parsons Project was founded by Eric Woolfson and Alan Parsons. They met in the canteen of Abbey Road Studios and Woolfson became Alan Parsons' manager. Recalling his earlier Edgar Allan Poe material, Woolfson saw a way to combine his and Parsons' respective talents. Parsons would produce and engineer songs written by the two, and the Alan Parsons Project was born. Tales of Mystery and Imagination was the bands first album. Arista Records subsequently signed The Alan Parsons Project for further albums. Through the late 1970s and early 1980s, the group's popularity continued to grow (although they were always more popular in North America and Continental Europe than in their home country, never achieving a UK Top 40 single or Top 20 album), with singles such as "I Wouldn't Want to Be Like You", " Games People Play," "Time" (Woolfson's first lead vocal), and "Eye In The Sky", making a notable impact on the pop charts. After the #3 success of the last in the US (and #6 in Canada), however, the group began to fade from view. There were fewer hit singles, and declining album sales. 1987's Gaudi would be the Project's last release. The group was notable for using several vocal performers instead of having a single lead vocalist. Lead vocal duties were shared by guest vocalists chosen by their vocal style to complement each song. Woolfson sang lead on many of the group's hits (including "Time" and "Eye In The Sky") and the record company pressured Parsons to use him more, but Parsons preferred "real" singers, which Woolfson admitted he was not. Parsons himself only sang lead on one song ("The Raven") through a vocoder, and can be heard singing backup on a few others, including "To One in Paradise". The Project never played live during its career. This was because Woolfson and Parsons saw themselves mainly in the roles of writing and production, and also because of the technical difficulties of reproducing on stage the complex instrumentation used in the studio. In the 1990s things changed with the technology of digital samplers. The only live performance where the band was introduced as "The Alan Parsons Project" was at Night of the Proms 1990 (at the time of the group breakup), featuring all Project regulars except Woolfson who was present but behind the scenes, while Parsons stayed at the mixer except during the last song where he played acoustic guitar. Since 1994 Alan Parsons performed live acoustic guitar, keyboards and vocals, with various lineups called "Alan Parsons Live Project" distinctly from "The Alan Parsons Project" due to the breakup with Eric Woolfson.
Some Bullet for my Valentine. I came across this band while listening to the Bruce Dickinson Rock Show and I thought they were pretty good. I don't normally like screaming Metal, but this is alright! This is why I like listening to the radio, you come across bands and music you wouldn't otherwise hear about.
