Oasis tour big venues

So, then, that "you'll never guess in a million, billion years" venue that Noel Gallagher was talking about? It turns out to be Heaton Park. Yes, you'd never guess they're playing a park which has hosted music events in the past.

Tickets are going to go on sale a week tomorrow at 10am [that's Friday 24th] so expect Saturday week lots of self-congratulatory "sold out in thirteen seconds" press activity.

These are the dates:

Saturday 06 June 2009 MANCHESTER, Heaton Park
Sunday 07 June 2009 MANCHESTER, Heaton Park
Wednesday 10 June 2009 SUNDERLAND, Stadium of Light
Friday 12 June 2009 CARDIFF, Millennium Stadium
Wednesday 17 June 2009 EDINBURGH, Murrayfield
Saturday 20 June 2009 DUBLIN, Slane Castle
Saturday 11 July 2009 LONDON, Wembley Stadium
Sunday 12 July 2009 LONDON, Wembley Stadium

And guess who's supporting? That's right: Kasabian. It's like Gordon Smart's bestest gig ever.
