The truth about Oasis
It doesn't even feel like the 2 months between my finding out Oasis was coming here and their actual show are nearly over. A week from now a lot of people will be on their toes with excitement over going to their concert. I hoped to be one of those people. I think I could've been one of them. However, I'm not even that sad that I'm not.
The thing is, while I love Oasis still, I don't love them the way I did 8, 10 years ago. Now it's more like old love, it's not passion anymore. I enjoy them on a moderate level, like you're supposed to do with beer (I don't even like beer, but whatever).
Sometimes I wonder if I try to find reasons not to want something I can't have, and I believe there are times that I do exactly that. Now I think it's not one of those times. I think I'd come out of a concert like this a bit frustrated. Most of the songs I like wouldn't be performed, there'd be much waiting (God only knows how much I hate lines and waiting) and tickets aren't exactly cheap.
Bottomline is, I'm positive that this is one of those cases in which something bad might have turned into something good. I'll stay home with my old Oasis CDs and won't spend R$180,00 on tickets to a concert I wouldn't fully enjoy.
Of the three bands I love the longest, I think Oasis is the one that I won't be as heartbroken for not going to a concert. Were it Bon Jovi, I'd be crushed; were it U2, I'd probably start crying about right now.
