      Got some photos. Still unsure and don’t know why the word mirage is used.

        A mirage is an optical illusion, very commonly seen in the desert, and often portrayed as a wonderful water oasis when a person is dehydrated and lost. Of course, the band Oasis isn’t standing in the desert either, so it must be a mirage too.

        In the desert being starved and dehydrated, it’s not uncommon to hallucinate things like water and trees. They are called “Mirages”

            We thought you didn’t know the band members, not the definition of mirage and oasis.
