※ 引述《PatsyGallagh (eXistenZe)》之銘言: 這篇文章實在太吸引我了,就翻譯了一下: Oasis將以 250萬英磅(1億2500萬台幣)的酬勞在今年夏天的Reading和Leeds 音樂 節中領銜演出,Noel確認了這個消息﹕樂團將在英國每年八月的最後一個週末的 bank holiday時舉行的音樂節中表演。主辦單位Mean Fiddler在這場OASIS爭奪戰中 贏了主要的競爭對手V2000音樂節。而這份龐大的酬勞也使得BLUR去年在Reading 演出的費用50萬英磅(2500萬台幣)顯得相形失色很多。Noel說﹕英國的兩大音樂節 中,他們已在Glastonbury表演過兩次,而且Reading鎮離我的家比較近,因此這是個 容易的決定。上個禮拜,Noel暗示﹕他不太想在今年的音樂節中表演了,除非,有 很多錢。他又說﹕我們也不想做個一切只為錢表演的渾球,但每個人看到我們在舞 台上時,應該也都知道我們只是為了錢。如果有人想請我們表演,奉上250萬英磅 將是讓我們答應的最好理由。有人說,Oasis是全英國最大卡的樂團,他們能達到任何 事,他們有強大的吸引力,沒有別的樂團能拿到如此可觀的酬勞。主辦單位同時表 示期餘的演出名單將會在短期內公布。Oasis將以創紀錄的250萬英磅在今年的Reading 中演出,這是英國史上最大的一筆演出費用。五名團員將接受這比豐厚的酬勞,但 他們只需工作四個小時。他們將會在Reading,Leeds中各表演大約2個小時左右。 去年Oasis的最大競爭對手Blur在Reading的出場費是50萬英磅,而Manic Street Preacher 在Glastonbury的出場費是10萬英磅。Robbie Williams也將會接受100萬英磅 的酬勞在今年的V2000中演出。Reading的門票將在3/6開始發售。不包括手續費或郵 寄費的票價是﹕80英磅(4000台幣)可以參加所有3天的音樂節活動,同時還包括了 露營的場地費(但需自備帳蓬,睡袋......其實現場也有賣),以及停車費(我們應該用不 到....),同時可以提早一天來搭營,延後一天走,也就是一共5天4夜。而單天的票 則是33.3英磅(台幣一千元),但看完演出就必須離開,早上才能再回來。Reading, V2000的完整演出陣容都將在近期公布。Noel最後說﹕當人們看到我在舞臺上表演 時,他們應該知道我之所以會站在那只是為了錢。 : OASIS are to be paid an estimated £2.5m to headline this year's Reading and : Leeds Festivals.
