There is still no final word on how many dates of Oasis’ US tour will be affected by the car crash that Noel Gallagher and two other band members were involved in yesterday. The band’s management confirmed that the crash had take place and that tonight’s sell out Indianapolis date had been postponed. They said: "Three members of Oasis were involved in a car accident Tuesday afternoon in downtown Indianapolis. A taxi they were travelling in was involved in a head on collision with another vehicle. Keyboard player Jay has his hand strapped and has to return to hospital today for further treatment. Neither Noel nor Jay is well enough to undertake the show at the Murat Theater in Indianapolis on Wednesday evening, and have been ordered by hospital doctors to fully rest for the next 48 hours to let their prescribed medication take full effect." The band’s US agents and the tour’s promoters are expected to reschedule the postponed date this week. An announcement on whether Friday’s Philadelphia date will go ahead is expected soon.
