About this Event
Live Forever - The Rise, Fall and Resurrection of Oasis. John Robb in conversation.
In this definitive book about one of Britain’s most celebrated bands, author John Robb peels back the layers of Oasis’ supersonic rise to rock ‘n’ roll fame as they prepare to return to the world stage, revealing a tale of ambition, ego, talent, and a whole lot of attitude.
Live Forever: The Rise, Fall and Resurrection of Oasis takes you on a rollercoaster ride through the Gallagher brothers' turbulent lives and the music that defined a generation.
From the gritty pubs of Manchester to the dizzying heights of global stardom, this is also a portrait of Britain around the turn of the millennium and the cultural forces and places that shaped, and were shaped by, two boys from Burnage – from art to fashion, and from football to politics.
Our event will be followed by a dedicated signing event with John. RRP books will also be available for purchase on the day.
