Can anyone confirm this? Dates? Venue? Prices? Anyone know who's opening, or know anything about the venue (reserved seating or GA)??

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE let Ryan Adams still be opening for them... dude's one of my favorites.

weren't they here a couple of times already? at least once I'm sure

their albums are everywhere here, have seen them in small town stationary stores, music stores, I got the impression they have a Korean following like Michael Likes to Rock

Wait, I simply laughed at seeing the reference Michael Learns To Rock. Do Koreans actually like them?? I think I've heard they like Mr. Big. So funny.

Where does one typically find out about bands coming to Seoul? I've enjoyed seeing a couple of live bands in the clubs here, and typically that's cheaper and more my style, but if I inclined to go to an arena sized show, it would be a more fun to do it here than say, Cincinnati.

In the past, some concert info was deleted on this site. Why? IDK, maybe the powers thought it was "free advertising" when it really was info being spread about living in Korea.

But some info remained. It's confusing.



Given the concert prices in Korea and the egos of the Gallagher brothers, expect over 100,000 a ticket.

Really? Let's be honest, Oasis aren't exactly the crowd puller they once were. Maybe they could have demanded this price about 10 years ago, but now?

I'll be there regardless of price - they're worth 100k in my opinion. Thanks for posting this!

Yeah, they probably will charge a lot. They just played an arena tour in America, and as far as I know it was successful. I gather western concerts are an extravagence here, so I'm sure we can expect 100,000W at least.

As well as a lot of drunk, obnoxious brits singing along to every song. Sigh.[/b]

Bands only come to Korea to make money. That's why usually 2nd rate or washed up acts are the norm.

LOL! Possibly they'll be a tour, staring with the following line up......

1. Little River Band
2. Night Ranger
3. Ambrosia
4. Asia
5. Sheriff

Actually, they each have at least one good song.
