Paul Oakenfold to join Madonna at Wembley Stadium on Sept. 11
London fans who missed out on tickets will have a new opportunity to see Madonna with newly announced special guest Paul Oakenfold on September 11 at Wembley Stadium.
With the completion of the production for Madonna’s Sticky & Sweet Tour, promoters Live Nation announced today that the sight-lines are better than previously anticipated and as such a limited number of tickets in all price levels are now available from www.livenation.co.uk or 24 hr box office 0844 576 5483 (all tickets subject to booking fee). Tickets will be limited to 6 tickets per person.
Paul Oakenfold has long been one of the most important – if not the most important – name in modern club culture. He was one of the first DJ’s to have a residency on the Island of Ibiza, leading to both a new sound and a yearly festival.
He started regular “Balearic” club nights in London, attracting a crossover audience and remixed legendary bands such as The Stone Roses and the Happy Mondays.
Along with production partner Steve Osborne, he’s remixed tracks by legendary bands New Order, The Cure and Massive Attack. In 1991, he first worked with U2 remixing “Even Better Than the Real Thing” and “Mysterious Ways” from their Achtung Baby album. It was the start of a long partnership with that band which included his spot as DJ on their historic ZOO TV tour and the remixed versions of the band’s “Beautiful Day,” a number one hit for U2 on the U.S. and U.K. dance charts.
Over the years, he’s remixed tracks for everyone from Madonna to Elvis Presley to Justin Timberlake to Muse to Snoop Dog. He’s the first electronic artist ever to be in the Guinness Book of World Records – for being the biggest DJ in the world. He’s the only DJ to have a display case in the Hard Rock Cafe’s Rock & Roll Museum. He has worked on the music for major Hollywood films including Swordfish, Collateral, Planet Of The Apes & Matrix Reloaded”.
