Britpop musical

A theatrical production on the Britpop music scene is reportedly in the works according to a report in Contact Music (who referenced a report in Britain's Daily Record.)  Although the project sounds like it's got MAJOR trainwreck potential (part of the plot will reportedly focus on the rivalry between Oasis and Blur), heavyweights Alan McGee (Creation Records founder) and Irvine Welsh (Trainspotting) are on board for the project.  All I know is, forget about the final production--I'd love to be watching the casting auditions for this one--how hysterical would that be?  We'll keep you posted on the progress of what is sure to be an awesome (hey, it's either gonna be awesomely good or awesomely bad) musical.
