Oasis fans react after first gig in 16 years
There was a sense of euphoria as Oasis fans left the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Friday night, knowing they had watched a gig that will go down in music history. The evening in the Welsh capital marked the first time Noel and Liam Gallagher shared a stage in 16 years.
Their setlist didn't disappoint, with it being full of their biggest hits, which kept the crowd happy all evening. And critics were also full of praise for the performance, with national news publications unanimous in giving the gig five stars. You can read more about that by clicking here.
We interviewed fans for their instant reaction to the gig when they exited the home of Welsh rugby on Friday night, and the feedback was unanimously positive.

One fan described it as: "Biblical. Epic."
Another added: "That's the best gig ever. The best gig ever. It was worth every penny, £1,000, worth every penny."
A third told us: "Unreal. I've waited my whole life for that and it was ten out of ten.
"I did the first gig, that was the most secure one. If they fall out after that, I don't care."

Another fan said: "It was absolutely amazing. I'd see them again in a heartbeat."
Asked what their favourite song was, many agreed that it was the song which finished the show, Champagne Supernova.
Kate Stephens, from Merthyr Tydfil, described the experience as "unreal".

The 26-year-old said: 'It was iconic, the fact that we have just witnessed that, I actually feel unreal, I actually feel like it's such an out of body experience.
"I was so nervous, is it actually going to happen, I was so convinced that we'd get there and they'd be like we've had an argument, we aren't going it now, it was insane.
"Live Forever got me quite emotional. Live Forever and Champagne Supernova I felt very emotional."
Jamie Davies, 39 and Sam Perry, 37, both from Torquay, and Dan Lall-Sachdev, 39, from Taunton, Richard Burnell, 41, from Barry and Lee Price, 42, from Sully, said they had an amazing time.

They said: "We've waited 30 years for that, to get them back together, to be here for the first night is unreal. It was unbelievable.
"They were crystal clear, technically they were on point. Liam was fantastic, absolutely amazing. Blown away by his vocals, absolutely incredible.
"Champagne Supernova was the best song. Early doors it was Half The World Away."
Many described the tickets as being 'worth every penny'

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.
Elsewhere, resale sites like Viagogo, Vivid Seats, StubHub and Twickets are selling tickets for various dates with prices from £121, although fans should always bear in mind that many official sites, such as Ticketmaster and Live Nation, discourage the purchase of resale tickets.

Viagogo and resale tickets
Sites such as viagogo, Stubhub, and Vivid Seats allow fans to buy resale tickets from other fans. However, it is important to note that ticket conditions often prohibit resale after initial purchase. Those tickets may not be valid for admittance to gigs.
Fans intending to buy tickets for live events through resale websites should check the ticket terms and conditions, to confirm whether resale is prohibited, before they buy. Ticket terms and conditions can be checked with the original seller, such as Ticketmaster or Live Nation. If resale is prohibited, tickets bought second-hand could be voided and admission to the event refused.
