Bohs release teaser video featuring Paul Weller as Oasis collaboration rumours swirl
Bohs have released a teaser video featuring Paul Weller as rumours of a collaboration with Oasis swirl. The video, posted by the Phibsborough club today at 6pm, shows the former Jam and Style Council frontman in Dublin 7, with the caption Tomorrow 11am flashing up on the screen. Weller, 67, is a longtime friend of Noel Gallagher, and a picture of Noel can also be seen behind him. Weller was also spotted at the nearby Bang Bang cafe - which is owned by Bohs' chief operating officer Daniel Lambert - in June, alongside the lads from Kneecap. Minutes before the video was released however, rumours began to circulate online of a potential "Bohasis" partnership after a website URL was found. The site is currently empty, displaying just a black and blue screen when you click onto it. Bohs have previously released various shirts down through recent years in partnership with Dublin bands Thin Lizzy, Aslan, and Fontaines DC. The news comes as soundchecks and rehearsals have kicked off for the first of the Oasis reunion gigs at Cardiff's Principality Stadium. As sunshine flooded across the Welsh capital, sounds of Cigarettes and Alcohol were heard blasting out of the venue in preparation for the band's first gigs in 16 years. Tickets for the Oasis reunion sold out across all venues due to huge demand when they went online earlier in the year. However, there are still several options available for fans trying to snag a last-minute spot. Limited last-minute tickets can be bought from the official Ticketmaster resale site, where fans who can no longer go sell their seats, although these tend to go into and out of stock quickly.

Lewis Capaldi says 'time he gets back to work' as he announces Dublin return
Singer Lewis Capaldi has said he feels it is "about time I got back to work" after he announced a UK and Ireland tour after a two-year hiatus. The Survive hitmaker took a break after he struggled to manage his Tourette Syndrome symptoms during a Glastonbury performance. But he made his return to the stage at Glastonbury over the weekend, telling fans: "I'm back, baby". Now the Scottish hitmaker has announced a UK and Ireland tour for later this year and is set to play Dublin's 3Arena on September 29, with tickets going on sale on July 10 at 9am. Announcing the tour on social media, he said it is "about time I got back to work", adding to his fans "hope to see you out there". Skye Newman and Aaron Rowe will be his support acts in Dublin. Along with Dublin, Capaldi's tour will include shows in Manchester, Birmingham, Cardiff, Glasgow and two performances in London. Prices will range from €30 up to €158.25, subject to a 12.5 per cent service charge per ticket, up to a maximum of €10.50. The news comes after Capaldi played a triumphant surprise set at Glastonbury on Friday 27 July, two years after a performance at the festival during which he struggled to manage his Tourette Syndrome symptoms. Capaldi marked his Glastonbury return by performing hits such as Before You Go, Grace, Hold Me While You Wait, Bruises, Forget Me, a first live showing of Survive, and Someone You Loved. He told the crowd at Glastonbury: "It's so good to be back. I'm not going to say much up here today, because if I do, I think I will probably start crying. "But it's just amazing to be here with you all, and I can't thank you all enough for coming out and coming and seeing me." Capaldi performed a 35-minute set on the Pyramid Stage and while introducing his new song, he became visibly emotional as he said: "The last two years haven't been the best for me. It's been difficult at times." "This has been my f****** goal, to get back here," he added.
