1. Feature on catastrophic Newcaste Riverside gig

comments

This is a classic 30 minute feature bassed around the Newcastle Riverside gig on August 9th 1994. A few songs in, a member of the crowd jump onto the stage and punched Noel in the face, cutting his eye. Noel jumped into the crowd to retaliate, quickly followed by Liam to back him up. Noel had to go to hostpital for stitches so that was the end of the gig.

1FM had been recording the gig for future broadcast, and Jo Whiley was watching from the wings and she describes the scene as it happens. This documentary does not include any of the live songs unfortunately, only a couple of intros which are crossfaded into the release versions. However the interviews are excellent. Jo Whiley is with the beand all day and so interviews them before the gig, on the bus on the way to the gig, and then at length after the gig.
