OASIS - bonehead

Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs

born manchester 23 June 1965

Where would we be without Bonehead? There would be no Oasis band, that's for sure, as Bonehead was responsible for bringing the original four band members together and setting up Noel as a (then) future member of the band. His nickname originates from his depleting hairline, but is a name he's happy with: "I've accepted my nickname as my real name now!".
Bonehead has gained respect as both an excellent rythm guitarist and expert hotel-smasher. Of hotel smashing he states: "I tell people it takes years of practice to be as good as I am". He can sing & write songs as well: "Bonehead's Bank Holiday " was written and sung by the man himself.
Bonehead is the oldest member in the band and arguably the steadying influence on the two front men, Noel and Liam. He likes to play piano (you can hear him on Don't Look Back In Anger and Live Forever), but proved his versatility when they were short of a bass player in the US by playing bass while Noel played guitar.
