Oasis Nightclub in Strabane has been accused of purposely misleading the public after advertising their nighttime dancing club on Ticketmaster at the same time as tickets went on sale for the band of the same name.

The advert, which offered tickets for £50 with promises of ‘a great light show, smoke machine, and fantastic music’, sold over 2700 units for the night of Sunday 17th August next year. Oasis nightclub, which usually pulls in around 200 people on a good night, claims they have done nothing wrong:

“It was just a pure coincidence. We genuinely didn’t know it was the same time as the band Oasis was playing in Croke Park as we’re more into country music here. If it’s any consolation, we’ll play one or two Oasis songs and we will use extra smoke from the machine for the slow set.”

Meanwhile, Liam Gallagher is rumoured to visit the county around the time of the concerts to catch a glimpse of the electric tractor in Kildress. One of their most famous songs commemorates the time he saw the tractor for the first time at a tractor convention in Liverpool. Kildress native, Gerry Loughran, when quizzed by Gallagher as to why it was so quiet, told the Mancunian, ‘She’s Electric’.
