How do you maintain that rush of excitement which accompanies a rise to the top? And while you're at it, where exactly do you perform after you've played the biggest-ever UK gigs? This six-month tour would give them the answers. But not the ones they expected.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the late 1990's Oasis ruled the world. Their album \u003cem\u003e(What's the Story) Morning Glory?\u003c\/em\u003e, had become one of the fastest selling records in history, ultimately one of the bestsellers of all time. And along with their instantly-legendary musical reputation went another - as the royal rabble-rousers of Britpop. The Gallagher brothers in particular were famous for drinking and fighting, the scourge of hotel managers the world over.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1997 came a new multi-million selling album, \u003cem\u003eBe Here Now\u003c\/em\u003e, and the start of a marathon global tour. With the band went writer Paolo Hewitt, their unofficial scribe and confidant. The result is this intimate, warm and hilarious account of a charismatic, world-famous group on tour and under stress, on-stage and off. It's a unique document, featuring cameos from Maradona, Paul Gascoigne, Johnny Depp and Naomi Campbell, while three hotels and two airlines attempted to ban the group worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInternational hotel chains will never see the like of Oasis again.
