Former Oasis guitarist Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs says that the group should have split back in 1996, following their sucessful Knebworth gigs. He departed the band in 1999 when he found that he was not enjoying working on 'Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants'.
Arthurs explains: "I wasn't feeling it any more. I would have been lying to the band and the fans. There were a lot of frantic phone calls and visits, but I'd made my mind up. I always thought we should have bowed out after the second night at Knebworth. Walking out on that stage is a feeling I can't explain - a sea of people. Big! Last year, I got on the guest list for an Oasis gig in Birmingham. It was exciting, but strange. I'd never rejoin them - not that I'd be asked. But for one gig? Absolutely. I still know the chords to 'Rock 'n' Roll Star'".
