Even bigger day out

Ocean Colour Scene are the latest additions to the Slane 2002 bill which, as you're doubtless aware, is taking place in Lord Henry's back garden on August 24.

The band – who are close to inking a new record deal – are also Ireland-bound on September 7 when they're opening for close pals Oasis in Derry. That, of course, is if Noel has recovered from his car accident.

In the meantime, you can catch up with their fellow Slane-ers Doves in the next issue of Hot Press.
