Well considering I have been admitted to the same hospital 3 times since July 15 I am getting better. You would think quadruple bypass would be the thing messing with me for so long. A couple other things are what is holding me back. Had the surgery and the next morning was up and walking around. Next day my knees and feet swell up with gout. Drained them and got better to go home. 2 days later it came back. I was somewhat able to hobble around the house but pretty much bedridden while we screwed around with primary care doctor to fix it. Was going to an orthopedist on 8/1 and when I got up to go to the car and got real dizzy and sweating about half way to the car. Made it and the A/C and sitting got me better. Got to orthopedist and just got out of the car into a wheelchair and it was that times 100. It's the only time in all this that I was seriously worried about dying. Got me inside and EMS took me back to the hospital. Turns out the surgery caused an ulcer on my colon. Fixed that after while. After that there were a couple other minor things but the main problem is still the gout. They got me into a rehab center and that didn't go well. Let's just say don't send anyone you love to Landmark on Eastern Parkway, don't. Left after 17 hours. Had to have a dressing on the wound on the chest on Sunday but couldn't get in until Wednesday. They readmitted me for the 3rd time. Had another surgery to clean out the wound and then another this morning to close it because it was looking good. The good news came this afternoon when I found a good rehab center that would take me. My insurance isn't taken by many rehab centers and this one is out of network so it's only covered at 60% but at this point if it's a matter of a couple thousand dollars I can't tell you how much I don't care. Hoping to get there tomorrow or Thursday. Walking again and getting back to a normal life because the last month and a half has sucked. Thanks for asking.
Just get better. Hopefully it turns around.
For some reason, I completely overlooked them in their heyday. I think, in retrospect, I lumped them in with Blur, Pulp, The Verve and other Britpop bands who sounded nothing like Oasis. Much of what little I heard of the other bands was electronic boy band stuff to my ears so I didn't really pay much attention to Oasis.
About 3 or 4 years ago, strolling through Spotify, several of the bands that are on my playlist showed Oasis as one of those 'if you like this band, you might like...' So, I searched and, obviously, I knew 'Wonderwall' as it was a huge hit. But, I hit play on 'Supersonic' and went, 'whoa, this is a ROCK band, not some sissified Brit pop dog crap'. Next, 'Morning Glory' and suddenly I was/am a FAN. Probably have 25+ songs on my song list (which is extensive but they're well represented). I truly like and enjoy their music. Tons of hooks, big choruses, some really good riffs and rock 'n roll attitude (especially in the earlier stuff). I'd definitely go see them if they're near me on their tour. They do NOT put on a show, that's for sure. But, the attitude and good song after good song would be enough for me to get my money's worth. It's gonna be an event in the UK and Europe. They didn't make nearly as much of a splash in the States but I'd wager they'll have some big crowds to play to in America if they choose to come here.

Liked, but not loved, them back in the day when they were hot. I was in HS at the time. Grew to appreciate their stuff more in the last five years. Would definitely hit up a concert.
Supersonic is def a banger!!!
