Slane support line-up confirmed
With The Prodigy already announced, Oasis have now confirmed the full list of acts set to support them at Slane this June.
The Hot Press Newsdesk, 05 May 2009
In addition to The Prodigy, support for Liam and Noel's June 20 gig at Slane Castle will come from Kasabian, Glasvegas and The Blizzards.
It'll be a busy summer of Irish gigs for The Prodigy, who also play Live at the Marquee in Cork on June 18, and a the PlanetLove-promoted Live In The Park show at Donard Park in Co. Down on June 19.
Kasabian are also in town for more than one date this June, playing Belfast's George's Market on the 22nd, while Glasvegas play Oxegen this July, and also support U2 at Croke Park on July 24.
Local lads The Blizzards complete the bill, rounding off a busy few months of touring across the UK and Ireland.
The Slane Castle gig, presented by MCD, is now completely sold out.

Never again, I’d sworn to myself. “Mark my words,” I’d said following their dire Lansdowne Road show in 2002, “never again am I watching Oasis live.” Five years later, and I’m standing in Marlay Park for my 11th (yes 11th!) Oasis gig.

Whatever your views on Oasis, there’s no denying that their singles are instant anthems. ‘The Importance of Being Idle’ is one of those to a tee - and less grating that ‘Lyla’, you’ll be glad to know. This time they don’t bother trying to be different at all, merely making up in melody what they lack in complexity. And check out the video for it too, where Welsh actor Rhys Ifans gets his groove on as a funeral director. It works, honest.

These are strange times for Noel and Liam. Displaced by Pete Doherty in the stony hearts of tabloid editors; overtaken in the quotably-lippy stakes by Jose Mourinho; and more likely to find themselves gracing the pages of Heat than the NME, the terrible twosome have never skirted as close to the boundaries of cultural obsolescence as they do just now. After all, post-Shameless, they may not even be the most famous Gallaghers in Manchester.
