So, I emailed my local alternative station to find out when they'd start playing The Shock of the Lightning. They play alot of Oasis, including songs you'd rarely hear on UK radio never mind anywhere else. I just wanted to be sure they'd start playing it in two weeks, but here's the reply I got. I don't know if someone there is clueless as to what I'm asking, but it's a really reputable small station.

When does EQX expect to start rotating the new Oasis single, The Shock of The Lightning? I know it's getting mass airplay this month with the new album coming out in October, I was just curious as to when you guys would start playing it. Thanks :-)

lol no, when you cut and paste a regular smiley into the forum I guess it does that!
FYI I just emailed back asking them if it's possible to tell me when they next plan to play it.

At least they are playing new Oasis, not just Wonderwall.

The song you are currently playing is a Chemical Brothers remix of the song Falling Down, no? What about the new single The Shock of The Lightning, are you rotating that too or is it yet to come?

Still....
if they're playing the Falling Down remix, Im sure TSOTL will definitely get some major airtime.
So thats good news, considering most US radio stations havent touched an Oasis song other than Wonderwall and maybe CS.
