Noel" Can I Play Glasto Please"




















This week will see Noel Gallagher play his biggest ever solo gigs as he takes to the stage at the Royal Albert Hall in London for two shows in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust.

With support coming from The View and The Coral, the dates sold out in seconds - not bad for someone who is supposed to be "taking time off".

Having begun his acoustic run last year playing a charity show at KOKO for pal Russell Brand, Noel ended up performing shows across the globe last winter supporting 'Stop The Clocks'.

However Oasis' leader has now asked us to help get him another gig - a slol slot at Glastonbury.

"Playing the acoustic stuff at the festivals, that would be good," admitted Noel, before making a direct appeal through NME to play the Somerset bash.

"Actually, Glastonbury Acoustic tent sounds nice! That would be good," he declared. "Yeah, do us a favour stick that in and Mr Eavis will give me a call!"

The guitarist did, however, joke that if his last-minute request is successful, he could find himself playing against all the bands he wants to check out this year.

"Saying that, he'd probably put me on at the same time as Arctic Monkeys," mused Noel. "The best slot is second on the bill on the other stage. I've never had that slot at Glastonbury, but we've done it at foreign festivals and it's great."



Also in the magazine in the NME gig guide, Noel's show at the Manchester News Arena was Pick Of The Week.

A whole gaggle of legends including Paul Weller, Noel Gallagher, Ian Brown, The Charlatans, Peter Hook and Echo & The Bunnymen will turn to support Andy Rourke's cancer awarness event.

A line-up worthy of the course.
