In a new interview with NME, Glen Matlock weighed in on the Oasis reunion and revealed that he was once asked to join the band. “If you’re a fan, it’s understandable. They’ve got lots of fans,” said the 68-year-old former Sex Pistols’ bassist about the excitement surrounding the upcoming Oasis reunion gigs. But their music never really stood out to Matlock. “To hear one song once is enough. I just find them kind of samey.” The outspoken musician said he personally likes Noel Gallagher and thinks Liam “sings great – he’s like Johnny Rotten but can carry a tune” and has “a magnetic stage personality,” but overall he thinks “they’re boring live” and would “never go to see ‘em.” Matlock then revealed, “There was a bit of talk about me helping them out with bass a long time ago – in ’95, ’96. The reason they didn’t want me in the first place is because they wanted someone who’d stand still. The last thing they need is someone else standing still.” (NME)
