I'm sure that press release was distorted...
Because if Noel really thinks U2 will take a support slot....and in their own country at that!!! ha ha.
No chance. Oasis would have to open for them...they wouldn't even be able to be double-billed.
Maybe in 95-96, but not anymore...

I'm sure Bono is humble enough to help out Noel.

I'm sure Bono is humble enough to help out Noel. Ok. I'm pretty sure that's you being facetious.. But, anyhoo....it's not a matter of being humble. What band is going to concede their status at the height of their popularity (they're still the biggest band in world)? If U2 didn't do it, it wouldn't be an act of arrogance, just a natural fact of the pecking order. Oasis just happens to be below them at this point. You think Noel woulda opened up for say, Supergrass or Pulp back in the day, to 'be humble'? No chance....

I said this as a joke in another thread...but really, U2 as a support act for Oasis, in their own country...probably with the new album out...is something near to impossible. Don't forget that - deserved or not - U2 is a much bigger act than Oasis by now.

Noel said it as a joke.
He was asked and he replied 'I want Bono to open for us.......on his own..........tellin jokes!'
Sarcasm.
