The Oasis concert at Slane is making headlines today, two days after the event and for once the Gallagher brothers have nothing to do with the controversy. Phone-in shows have been inundated with angry concert-goers complaining about their difficulties getting in through the "Dublin entrance", perceptions of overcrowding and in particular severe delays getting back to Dublin on buses after the concert. Lord Henry Mountcharles promised a full investigation when he appeared on the RTE's Joe Duffy show and sounded genuinely concerned about the problems and the disappointment that the angry fans had experienced.
The music? No reports on the early bands but the Prodigy performed a very lively set from 7 to 8 pm which whipped the crowd into a frenzy. At about 8.20 Oasis took to the stage to a tumultuous reception. Over the next two hours they performed a mixture of songs from their latest studio album and back catalog. The biggest reception was by far for the old favorites as the fans sang along with gusto.
