The historic Oasis Scotland gig that got legendary band signed in 1993
More than 30 years ago, Oasis played a show in Glasgow that would change music history. In just a few months, Oasis will return to Scotland for the first time in more than 15 years. The legendary band will play three nights at Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium in August. Scottish devotees of Oasis will have their tickets secured and will be counting down the days to the three shows on August 8, 9, and 12. With anticipation at an all-time high, now is the perfect moment to reflect on the band's history with Scotland. The Daily Record is taking the opportunity to journey back in time to a pivotal moment in the band's history. We are taking a look at one Scottish gig that changed the lives of musicians Noel and Liam Gallagher, Tony McCarroll, Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs, and Paul 'Guigsy' McGuigan forever. In particular, we are travelling back to 1993. This is when Oasis played their first major concert in Scotland. As fans of the band will know, their first headline tour—the Definitely Maybe Tour in 1994—saw them grace Scottish stages such as the Gleneagles Golf Club and La Belle Angele in Edinburgh. However, the year prior, they performed an impromptu gig at King Tut's Wah Wah Hut in Glasgow. Unsigned at the time, Noel and Liam Gallagher, McCarroll, Arthurs, and McGuigan had been gigging around England with no success in getting noticed. By a stroke of luck, fellow band Sister Lovers—who shared their rehearsal space—invited Oasis to join them for a Glasgow performance. Oasis arrived at King Tut's Wah Wah Hut in Scotland's largest city to be told they couldn't perform. This is because the 300-capacity venue did not have them scheduled to play that evening. Luckily, the band managed to persuade the organisers to let them put on a quick spontaneous set before the main act. Little did they know that one attendee in particular was exactly who they needed to impress. Among those captivated by the performance was Alan McGee, co-owner of Creation Records. The Scottish entrepreneur and music mogul recognised potential in Oasis and decided almost on the spot to sign them. The rest, as they say, is history. The King Tut's Wah Wah Hut website recounts: "Back in '93, a group of lads from Manchester known as 'Oasis' turned up to King Tut's and demanded to be added to the bill for the gig that night. They took to the stage, performed four songs to a small crowd, and unbeknownst to them, legendary independent label boss Alan McGee was in the crowd. "After signing to McGee's label, Creation Records, Oasis became one of the biggest and most influential bands in the world." Would there be hundreds of thousands of people lining up to watch Oasis perform in Scotland this August if they hadn't performed that fateful Glasgow gig back in 93? We will never know, and thankfully we don't need to think about it. As reported by the Daily Record, Liam Gallagher has recently criticised Edinburgh Council Chiefs. The musician took to social media to slam the Council after Oasis fans were reportedly branded "rowdy" in a briefing.

Liam Gallagher slams Scottish council for description of Oasis fans
Liam Gallagher has slammed a Scottish council after officials were accused of suggesting Oasis fans are 'drunk, middle-aged and fat'. The remarks were revealed in safety briefings drawn up ahead of the band's three sellout shows at Murrayfield in August.

One note from the documents, which were released following a freedom of information request by the Scottish Sun, shows council officials warning that 'middle aged men take up more room, consider this when working out occupancy'. Another details 'concern about crowds of Oasis on weekends as they are already rowdy and the tone of the band'. It adds: 'Concerned about the safety of the Fringe and its performers. Many performers are considering not attending for that weekend.' Advertisement One document, which notes 'DF Concerts' in the heading, suggests there will be 'medium to high intoxication' at the concert, and to expect a 'substantial amount of older fans', but adds there have been 'minimal arrests' at recent Gallagher events. Responding on social media, Gallagher said: 'To the Edinburgh council I've heard what you said about Oasis fans and quite frankly your attitude f****** stinks I'd leave town that day if I was any of you lot.' In a second post, he added: 'I'd love to see a picture of all the people on the Edinburgh council bet there's some real stuning individuals.'

Advertisement David Walker, of the Oasis Collectors Group, criticised the comments made in the safety briefings. He told the Scottish Sun: 'To call fans drunk, middle-aged, and fat is a nasty, sneering stereotype, it's a jaundiced view.' Around 210,000 people are expected to attend the three Edinburgh shows amid the group's highly anticipated reunion tour.

'We're all looking forward to seeing Oasis take to the stage this August and I'm sure that they'll 'live forever' as some of the most memorable concerts ever performed at Murrayfield.'
