Oasis confirm for Reading and Leeds
14 February 2000
Putting a cap on many months of speculation about whether they would or wouldn’t, Britpop superstars Oasis have just announced that they will headline this year’s Reading and Leeds festivals in England. Guitarist/ songwriter Noel Gallagher: “As far as I’m concerned, there are two main British music festivals, Glastonbury and Reading. As we’ve already played Glastonbury twice and Reading is nearer to my house, it was an easy choice to make.”
    Oasis’ new single Go Let It Out debuted on the British charts this week at number one. Their new album Standing On The Shoulders Of Giants is due at the end of the month as the quintet start a world tour in Yokohama. | BBC story | | tour dates | | discography | | sample from Be Here Now | | CD | | top of page |
