U2 sends Oasis "back to the drawing board"...

Oasis singer Liam Gallagher has told The Sun newspaper that the other Irish giants U2 and their current tour has set new standards for rock and roll admitting: "I think Oasis will have to go back to the drawing board."

Liam was speaking backstage at London's Earls Court on Saturday night and in a rare moment of modesty he confessed he'd been blown away by the Irish band.

U2's Elevation tour - the biggest grossing tour which earned each of the band £2,000 a minute told the paper "This was one of the greatest performances I've seen. Bono gives 129 per cent - it blew my head off. I couldn't take my eyes off him. This sets the standard for other bands. "

"It's a different experience to Oasis but I've never seen anything like it. It has made me look at things in a different way. We're going to have to go back to the drawing board and have a rethink. We've got some gigs coming up and I know it's going to be hard to top something like this."

Bono complimented his old mate Liam by dedicating the encore of One to him who was there with girlfriend Nicole Appleton. After the monster gig Bono flew back to Dublin to be with his terminally ill Dad Bob, who is dying from cancer. He once again, dedicated Kite to him on stage.

Bono also sent his backing to the protesters at the recent G8 summit. He said: "We don't need bullets and bombs. We believe in peaceful protest. Civil disobedience can work and we need to take this to the streets."

The band are now gearing up for the massive 80,000 Slane gig this Saturday in Ireland. And hopefully we'll all be there to witness their greatest ever show...
