Pullin’ ‘Tubes: 99 Problems, But Noel Ain’t One
A few months back Oasis frontman Noel Gallagher singled out Jay Z as the reason that this weekend’s Glastonbury festival didn’t sell out – claiming there was no place for hip hop at the historically rock heavy festie. While the rap impresario did issue a response, he saved his real retribution for his performance last night.
To open his headlining set Mr. Carter strolled onto the stage with an electric guitar strapped on as the strains Wonderwall played behind him and with a sly smile led the crowd in a sing along of Oasis’ ubiquitous hit. Check it out…
Noel clearly needs to learn a couple of things: first, never get involved in a land war in Asia, and a close second is to never get into a feud with one S. Carter.

wow classic. that’s a great version with the back in black tease, and a real clear juxtaposition with the wonderwall cover.
Awesome. Jay-Z is the best, Jerry, the best.
I’d say that Kanye West can learn a bit more from Jay-Z’s performance than Noel can.
In related news, Oasis has a new album coming out.
By the way, that 99 Problems is just a TAD stronger than the “I got 99 problems including my Oxy addiction” version Phish laid on us in Brooklyn.
Now, THAT’S Punk Fuckin’ Rock!
