Oasis comeback ignites Cardiff after 16 years

Oasis roared back to life in Cardiff on Friday night, kicking off their long-awaited reunion tour after 16 years apart. The Gallaghers—Liam and Noel—shared the stage again, thrilling 70,000 ecstatic fans with classics like Wonderwall, Live Forever, and Don't Look Back In Anger. Opening with Hello ("it's good to be back"), the brothers seemed to bury decades of feuding, though they barely interacted on stage.

Liam prowled and sneered through the set, sounding stronger than ever despite past vocal struggles. The setlist stuck to 90s hits, igniting singalongs and beer showers as fans from around the world packed the stadium, some paying over £350 for tickets.

Though they hugged briefly at the end, their charged history loomed large—a dynamic that has always electrified Oasis shows. Joking about the ticket prices, Liam asked, "Is it worth the £4,000 you paid?"

Judging by the tears and bucket hats, the answer was a resounding yes. After years of insults and silence, the Gallaghers delivered a fiery, nostalgic, and emotional night that proved Oasis are as vital and explosive as ever.
