Liam Gallagher thanks Oasis fans 'for putting up with them over the years'
Liam Gallagher thanked the 70,000 fans who attended Oasis ' first reunion gig in Cardiff for 'putting up with them over the years'. The singer and his brother Noel had been at loggerheads for 16 years, with fans giving up on the idea that Oasis would reunite for another tour.
However, they shocked fans when they made the announcement last year that they would be embarking on an epic tour all over the world. Cardiff was blessed with the very first gig on Friday night, with the brothers holding hands and raising them to the sky as they waltzed onto the stage.
The likes of Champagne Supernova, Supersonic, Slide Away and more were performed tonight, with Noel pausing for a few bars while singing Half The World Away to take in the scenes in front of him.
After leaving the stage at the end of the night, fans stomped and cheered as they demanded an encore.
They returned to sing the likes of The Masterplan, Don't Look Back In Anger and Wonderwall before Liam thanked fans for supporting them.
He said: "Thank you, beautiful people. This is it. Nice one for putting up with us over the years. We are hard work, we get it." He briefly paused before announcing the final song - Champagne Supernova.
"Nice one for coming out," he added with his arms, as per usual, behind his back.
Liam made several cheeky comments throughout the night. Earlier, he appeared to indicate someone in the audience, he said: 'I see you're still on the glue down here then?'
Referencing the dynamic price surges, Liam at one point asked the crowd: "Are you having a good time? Is it worth the £40,000 you paid for a ticket?"
The hotly-anticipated tour was the culmination of months of speculation, a feverish ticket sale and a long 16 year wait from fans.
A shock comeback was unveiled in August 2024, with the band declaring: 'The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.'
A chaotic rush for tickets followed with 17 dates announced across London, Manchester, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Dublin before the band announced more concerts in North America, Mexico, South Korea, Japan, Australia, Chile and Argentina - giving fans around the world the chance to hear the hits live again.

Mick Jagger parties with Jerry Hall and Ronnie Wood at huge A-List birthday bash
Rolling Stones star Mick Jagger celebrated his 82nd birthday in style last night - starting with a private dinner in Kensington before heading to Chelsea to continue the party Rock legend Mick Jagger celebrated his 82nd birthday with an A-List bash in London last night, where police were reportedly called at one point, due to an altercation outside involving security. The party started off with a private dinner at Kensington Roof Gardens, before the group headed to The Rex Rooms nightclub in Chelsea, arriving in style on party buses. There, they met with a number of other celebrities who were at the venue for the afterparty of the latest Oasis concert which took place at London's Wembley Stadium. Despite none of the Britpop band attending the afterparty - it didn't stop the rest of the celebrities, including Liam's sons Gene and Lennon Gallagher, from partying until 4am. The Rolling Stones frontman attended the venue hand in hand with his fiancé Melanie Hamrick, who stunned in a black mini dress and stilettos. Melanie appeared to be in the party mood, jokingly sticking her tongue out as she was snapped leaving the venue. Jagger matched the vibe with a black suit and white shirt - as he was all smiles as he was joined by his closest friends and family. Rolling Stones bandmate Ronnie Wood joined the bash with his wife Sally Humphreys Wood. Ronnie, who wore a bright blue shirt under a stone blazer, could be seen carrying a red gift bag with the words "Happy Birthday" on. Sally also opted for a colourful outfit, entering the venue in a floral print red dress. Also amongst the guests were Mick's 33-year-old daughter, Georgia May Jagger and her mother Jerry Hall. The pair looked in good spirits as the entered the venue, both looking elegant in mid length black dresses. Elizabeth Jagger was also seen heading into the party. Liam Gallagher's son Gene could also be seen at the bash, although it appeared he wasn't overly keen on being snapped as he was pictured with his head down as he walked into the venue while his girlfriend also covered her face. Other celebrities in attendance included Daphne Guinness, Sacha Baron Cohen, Jimmy Carr and Mariella Frostrup. Last month, it was reported the Rolling Stones were working on a new album after reportedly deciding to scrap plans for a comeback tour in Europe. It's claimed that the group have more than a dozen songs ready to go after spending time in the studio. Bandmates Mick Jagger, 81, Keith Richards, 81, and Ronnie Wood, 78, are said to have been working in Metropolis Studios in London since April. It was reported that they were in discussions over the release of their 25th studio album.
