Oasis Could Be Fined For Late Opening Night











Rockers Oasis could be slapped with a hefty fine after the show on their tour's jinxed opening night broke an 11pm curfew.

Council officials were furious that the gig in the band's home city of Manchester overran. It had started late due to technical problems.

As the allotted finishing time approached, guitarist Noel Gallagher said: "Normally we go off at this point. But tough."

The concert on Thursday night could already have cost the band £3.5million.

The gig at Heaton Park was delayed by 45 minutes because of a broken generator so Noel and singer brother Liam told the 70,000 fans they could have the £50 cost of their ticket refunded if they wanted.

Noel later said he regretted that promise.

Fan Paula Fenwick, 27, of Newcastle, said: "In these credit crunch times seeing Oasis effectively for free is quite appealing."
