Manchester City FC Doc With Players , Staff and VIP's Such As Noel Gallagher
Blue Moon Rising is a documentary film currently in production. The film title is a play on words referring to Manchester City's fan anthem, Blue Moon and chronicles the fortunes of Manchester City Football Club through the 2009-2010 football season.
Shot and produced by Endemol in conjunction with the club, it features exclusive interviews with staff, players, board members and fans throughout the season. The first trailer was unveiled last week and the film is set for theatrical release later this year.
Roberto Mancini, striker Emmanuel Adebayor and a host of other City stars will be at the star-studded Manchester premiere on September 9.
Back in the Summer of 1994 a colossal war that dominated every British music mag was raging over in the UK that pitted Manchester’s OASIS up against London’s BLUR and this press-fuelled battle had reached its apex by the time they both found their way to the Bay Area for back-to-back shows in September.
I was an intern at the time for EMI records and also Live 105, and was in charge of driving around BLUR for the day doing press and radio interviews as they were in town for a show at The Fillmore with fellow brits PULP as openers. My best pal and roommate Adrian Moreira had a similar position over at Sony Music and was quarterbacking a local press run with OASIS who ironically enough, were playing their FIRST show in San Francisco at Bottom Of The Hill the night after BLUR.
Being young opportunists trying to break into the music biz and wanting to capitalize on a potential big press-worthy story, Adrian and I secretly worked out a plan with then Live 105 Music Director and night DJ Steve Masters to separately bring BLUR and OASIS to the Live 105 studios for an on-air interview…. unbeknownst to EACH band that the other would be there.
LIVE 105: Blur and Oasis in studio:
I’ll always and indelibly remember that glare Damon gave me as I escorted BLUR into the studio that already harbored a couple of raucous brothers with the last name of Gallagher.
After the interview BLUR and I picked up Jarvis Cocker of PULP at his hotel and then drove over to Bottom Of The Hill to watch OASIS and BRIAN JONESTOWN MASSACRE play to a capacity crowd.
To this day I still have no idea how everyone fit into my piece of crap 1988 broken down Jetta.
Aaron Axelsen, Live 105 Music Director, San Francisco
Grant Nicholas from Feeder says he was in the studio next door to Liam Gallagher last week and described the Manc's new material as much heavier and rockier than Oasis.
He said he's mates with both Liam and Noel and reckons they'll get back together in five years.

Noel Gallagher and Modfather Chilling in West London
Starbucks may be the most ubiquitous coffee chain on the high street.
But for these two icons of popular music, a greasy spoon is more than adequate for catching up on each others news.
Oasis star Noel Gallagher, 43, enjoyed a brew with Paul Weller aka The Modfather, 52, at a cafe in West London.
Chilling: Two of the music world's most famous artists, enjoyed a quiet cuppa at a greasy spoon in West London today
Looking like an ordinary pair of middle-aged men, albeit with a penchant for youthful clothes, the pair were seen deep in conversation outside the neighbourhood cafe.
No fancy lattes or double macchiatos for these two, just a couple of cuppas, as they enjoyed a friendly chat.
The millionaire musicians sat outside at the pavement side tables in front of the cafe's windows which were plastered with signs advertising the cafe staple 'All Day Breakfast' at the bargain price of just £4.95.
Weller, amazingly, has managed to stay friends with both Gallagher brothers, despite Noel and Liam's well-publicised fall-out last year which resulted in him leaving the band.
Noel Gallagher and Paul Weller enjoy a cuppa at a cafe in west London
Music icons: Noel and Weller have known each other for 12 years... and the Modfather is also friendly with Noel's estranged brother Liam
Weller has enjoyed a 12-year friendship with the father of two. He is also expecting a third child, his second with wife Sara McDonald.
And he has recently signed on to design clothing for Liam's fashion label Pretty Green.
Noel has said of the former Jam frontman: 'I guess Weller’s my oldest friend... I’ve known him for about 12 years”, said the guitarist.
'There’s an unwritten law that I never go out with Paul Weller, he’s a nightmare.
'He’s hardcore – if you go out with him, if you come home at all, there’s bumps and bruises. There’s been scuffles in the street and you’ve probably fallen out with him.'
Last year Noel quit Oasis after a fight with his brother and lead vocalist of Oasis, Liam Gallagher.
He posted a statement on the band's website that read: 'It's with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight.
'People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer.'
The remaining members of Oasis have formed a band together called Beady Eye.
