Now for something completely here at ‘Some Goals…’ – a dissertation about the Manchester music scene by our very own Dan Morehead. Enjoy!
Since the ascent of Oasis, the city has not produced anything properly comparable to them, or their musical forebears. To paraphrase Little Richard, perhaps Manchester got what a lot of people wanted but lost what it had. It remains a fine city in which to spend time, and for those moneyed enough, a great place to live. But where has the noise gone? (Cummins, 2010: 314)
Oh Manchester, so much to answer for
Some Goals Are Bigger Than Others
