‘Special place’ – Noel Gallagher reveals which football stadium Oasis are most excited to play

Noel Gallagher has named River Plate’s ground in Argentina as the venue Oasis are most excited to play next.

    Having ended a 16-year feud with his brother Liam, their comeback tour of the UK and Ireland has become a cultural phenomenon.

    Oasis are now set for shows in Canada, the USA and Mexico before returning to Wembley Stadium in September.

    Gallagher and co. will then play gigs in South Korea, Japan and Australia before ending their tour in South America.

    It is in that continent where Oasis will perform at a ‘special place’ for the band.

    Before shows in Chile and Brazil conclude the tour, the group are scheduled for two nights at the Estadio Monumental in Buenos Aires, home of iconic Argentine club River Plate.

    Die-hard Man City fan and avid talkSPORT listener Gallagher did not hesitate to name that stadium when asked which venue he is looking forward to playing most out of those still to come.

    The musician told Drive: “The River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires in November.

    “It’s the second last show and we’ve played there a couple of times.

    “The Argentinians are without doubt in the top five places for us to play in the world and it’s the furthest away from Ireland and Manchester.

    “Everybody is looking forward to River Plate because it’s a special, special, special place for us.”

    The 85,018-capacity stadium has hosted hundreds of concerts as well as the 1978 World Cup final.

    Oasis previously played at the arena during their final tour before their infamous break-up in 2009 – and it has since become one of their most rewatched gigs on the internet.

    It is one of four shows the band have staged in the Argentine capital.

    Gallagher also admitted he has been ‘blown away’ by the crowds on the tour so far.

    When asked if he has been stunned by how well the shows have been received, he added: “Yeah, completely blown away. Everyone is. It’s difficult to put it into words actually.

    However, he refused to be drawn on rumours of concerts at Knebworth after their iconic shows in front of 250,000 fans in 1996.

    Asked about the possibility of a return to the famous site in Hertfordshire and when the tour could end, he hastily replied: “Right, let’s talk about football.”
