Oasis Unplugged
Oasis are to play their own MTV Unplugged gig tonight (Aug. 23rd)
at London's Roundhouse. The location is supposed to be a secret, and even one
member of the Creation Records staff (Oasis are signed to Creation) admitted
they didn't know where the performance would be held, although the show was
confirmed yesterday by the group's publicity representatives. Four hundred fans
from around the UK will get to see their favorite band in this intimate
setting. The lucky few were chosen through local newspaper competitions.
Tickets for this gig are so rare that even people who work for Oasis are
finding it difficult to get a hold of them. So, unless you're either in the
band or a lucky winner you'll have to wait until the autumn to see the results
of this rare performance. Rumors were flying that Evan Dando, Johnny Depp, Paul
McCartney, Paul Weller, and/or Robbie Williams would make special guest
appearances. Our guess? It' will be Oasis, and Oasis only. Noel Gallagher isn't
particularly keen on sharing the spotlight.
