Snow Patrol, Keane, MGMT Cover Oasis At V Festival

• 24th Aug 2009

Snow Patrol, MGMT, and Keane paid tribute to Oasis following the cancellation of their headline slot at V Festival in Chelmsford due to illness.

Snow Patrol performed acoustic covers of ‘Wonderwall’ and ‘Champagne Supernova’ during their encore, which was well received by the crowd, who sang along after booing when Gary Lightbody mentioned Oasis earlier in the set.

Keane played the 4Music stage at the same time, and thanked fans for choosing them over the headliners. They performed a version of ‘Cast No Shadow’.

MGMT also paid tribute by opening their set with ‘Live Forever’, and performing with a cardboard cut out of Liam Gallagher on the stage with them.
