The Glastonbury 2004 Incomplete DVD is cut in "Cigarettes & Alcohol" (first half missing) and "Don't Look Back in Anger".

The Glastonbury 2004 Complete DVD contains the whole (broadcast) Oasis set, excluding the new (and unbroadcast) songs.

The Glastonbury 2004 audio CD apparently has some (reasonably inaudible) issues at 16KHz, but this is the first full source in circulation.

Glastonbury Complete Audience is a transfer from the MD master of a new ULTRA RARE complete audience source in good quality.
(Source: Giant Squid Audio Lab Omni's -> Sharp MT877 MD -> Cool Edit 2000 -> CD-R Master; Taped by "7L").

Please note: any "soundboard" audio sources for this show will have come from the satellite feed, and so will naturally display a cutoff/fallaway around 16KHz as the broadcast was a 256kbps audio feed.

OASIS made their triumphant return to GLASTONBURY tonight (June 25) as they headlined the PYRAMID STAGE in front of a rapturous audience.

The band, now joined by Ringo Starr's son Zak on drums, also treated fans to a taste of what's to come from their forthcoming sixth studio album.

Opening the set with 'Rock ‘N' Roll Star', Liam Gallagher, dressed in a white parka jacket simply shouted to the crowd, ”Glastonbury”.

Oasis ripped through a career-spanning set including the tracks 'Cigarettes & Alcohol', 'Wonderwall', 'Live Forever', 'Stop Crying Your Heart Out', 'Songbird', 'Columbia', 'Don't Look Back In Anger' and the set-closer - a cover of The Who's 'My Generation'.

The band also gave the Glastonbury crowd an idea of what to expect from their forthcoming as-yet-untitled sixth studio album, with the new tracks ‘A Bell Will Ring', and 'The Meaning Of Soul'.

Before playing 'Stop Crying Your Heart Out', Liam told the audience: “We'd like to dedicate this one to the England football team”.

Tonight was the first time that the band have played at Glastonbury since their headlining 1995 appearance, and marked their biggest outdoor show since their gig at Manchester's Old Trafford cricket ground in 2002.

Last time Oasis took to the Glastonbury stage they were joined by Robbie Williams who, just after quitting Take That, came to the festival in 1995 and even joined the group onstage to dance.

To warm-up for tonight's performance Oasis played a warm-up show at Poole Lighthouse on Wednesday (June 23).

Starkey was adding his skills on the drumkit following the departure of former sticksman Alan White earlier this year.

Oasis are currently in the studio working on the follow-up to their last LP, 'Heathen Chemistry'.

"What a great show this was for 3 reasons:

1. Great set list
2. Fantastic finish
3. Glastonbury vibes

I managed to get a ticket a week before the festival and Oasis were the band to see for me although I had to see McCartney. I had tried to get tickets for the Poole gig but they sold out within 10 minutes on the phone. The anticipation for the band before they hit the stage was palpable. Great opening number, where it should be as the set opener. They then proceded to play an almost vintage set with 11 songs from 94 - 95 era and nothing from the 3rd and 4th albums. The first new song was ballady and OK, but the second was fucking great a real rocking number that I felt was closest to Headshrinker than Bring It On Down as reported in the press. I would really like to hear that song again. Surprise of the show was the aforementioned BIOD which was fab. No SMS or RWI, but that was OK, loads of singing on the Heathen Chemistry material to show how good that last album was. only disappointment was that they did not do Hung In A Bad Place (which I love). They finished with a spectacular version of My Generation that was mega and a real grandstand finish. My overall feeling of the show were that they took a while to warm up, but when they did they took off. If Rock 'N' Roll Star had more punch (the sound was a bit shit to be honest and I was in the pit) then the rest of the set would surely have followed suit and it would have been one of the great performances ever and would have cemented their role as the great band of their era (they are anyway). I cannot tell you how good the setlist was, that made the show for me.

I have seen 15 track versions of the show around and have one wining its way to me, but if the complete show is available then drop me a line. in hindsight I should have taped the show from the audience, but I took the option to get in with the atmosphere and have a good time rather than worry about someone knocking my mic singing over the PA."
