‘I booked Oasis for Bedford at the start of their first tour’

He said the 250-capacity venue attracted only about 130 people, and the show had a large guestlist made up of people in the music industry, including their label Creation Records.

“They had mostly played up north, so for all these people down south it’s easy to come to Bedford to see how the band were shaping up,” Mr Primett said.

Backstage, the band were given the usual rider for the venue: 24 lagers and some bottles of water.

As the venue had a kitchen, the promoter liked to cook for bands that visited the town.

“My view back then was, ‘I’m going to befriend this band’, because then you hope you’d get another show out of them.

“I knew they were on track so I was making more effort with the food that night. I got them a hotpot and a jacket potato. Quite rudely they went off and got a McDonald’s.

“Whiteout sat there and ate theirs up. The Gallaghers snubbed me.”
