Swedish pop legends ABBA are planning a series of comeback concerts for a residency in London but are taking an unprecedented approach: No one from the band will physically appear. The futuristic set will feature holograms of the group on stage at a custom-built arena along with a live band. Former Oasis co-founder Noel Gallagher has blasted the group calling the shows “meaningless.” “I would not consider gigs with me as a hologram,” Gallagher said in an interview with The Sun. “No, there would have to be an audience involved. You need a crowd in front of you. It’s a human interaction, and if you don’t have that it is meaningless.”
Gallagher left Oasis in 2009 and since then has performed as the vocalist, guitarist and songwriter in Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds. ABBA’s four members are all over 70 years old, an age bracket Gallagher hopes not to spend much time in. “Do I want to live another 50 years? No. Just think how s**t the world is now. I would rather not live through it. At 75 I want to go. My plan for the next ten years is to make three great albums.”
