Wait Almost Over For Oasis Fans In Aberdeen















It is the moment 17,000 Oasis fans have been awaiting for nearly three years.

The legendary Manchester band make their long-awaited return to the north-east this weekend, playing two sell-out concerts at the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre.

Tickets for both concerts sold out in a record seven minutes back in August, making the Britpop heroes the fastest selling single act to ever visit the venue.

This latest tour coincides with the release of the band’s seventh album Dig Out Your Soul, which was recorded at Abbey Road studios.

In a recent interview, guitarist Gem Archer, who joined the band around 1999 after the departure of original members Paul ‘Bonehead’ Arthurs and Paul ‘Guigsy’ McGuigan, said: “I still love it.

“The cliche is normally that bands can’t wait to get away from their music once it’s recorded, but I nearly listened to it again last night.

“In the past, if you’d been out with Liam (Gallagher) at night and you ended up back at his house after the pub had shut, he’d play you the new album 15 times, but this time around, you might get it 30 times. That says it all.”

Oasis last performed before a sell-out crowd in the Granite City back in December 2005.

The Manchester band, famous for hits like Wonderwall, Don’t Look Back in Anger and Champagne Supernova, will be hoping for a warmer welcome than they got in Toronto, Canada, last month, when Noel Gallagher was attacked and pushed over during an incident on stage, breaking three ribs.
