Stop crying your heart out! Anguished Oasis fans are wheeled out of Noel and Liam's reunion gig on stretchers after splashing out on pricey tickets
More than 75,000 fans gathered at Cardiff's Principality Stadium for the first night of the long-awaited Oasis reunion tour.
But as history was being made with Noel, 58, and Liam, 52, appearing on stage for the first time together in 16 years, several fans were seen being taken away by medics on the ground.
In one chaotic clip, a fan was seen holding his head as he sat on a stretcher while three emergency workers donning reflective gear surrounded him.
A venue employee ran on ahead holding up a flashing light so the injured man could be led to safety in the packed stadium.
Another piece of footage captured a man laying strapped flat on a stretcher as he was wheeled out behind the metal railing separating the standing and seated area.
And in a third video, a woman was seen being pulled out of the grounds by three medics as she appeared to argue with a venue worker.
The stadium worker appeared to insist she left the arena with the medical team but she could be seen clasping her hands together as she seemed to beg to stay.
It's no surprise when some tickets soared to £355 plus fees on Ticketmaster.
Tickets were meant to start at £74.25 for seated tickets at their Wembley shows, with the most expensive ticket being a £506.25 pre-show party.
However, screenshots from the Ticketmaster website offering In Demand standing tickets being listed for hundreds of pounds each.
As the masses gathered on Friday, Liam kicked off the show with Hello, which serves as the opening track for their 1995 classic 'What's The Story (Morning Glory).
They then went into Acquiesce - a song from their first 1995 album, which was followed by the iconic Morning Glory - the titular song of the second studio album.
Liam shouted out: 'Yes beautiful people! It's been too long.'
Liam then ordered the crowd to 'turn around and bounce' ahead of Cigarettes and Alcohol.
After performing Some Might Say, Bring It On Down and Fade Away, Liam went off for a rest, while Noel performed his acoustic version of Talk Tonight.
Then Noel appeared emotional as he performed Half The World Away and even stopped singing for a few bars at one point.
Liam later said: 'Are you having a good time?' before addressing the ticket chaos: 'Was it worth the £40,000 you paid for the ticket.'
Richard Ashcroft appeared on stage shortly before Oasis, saying: 'So glad to be here with the greatest rock 'n' roll band. When I heard Oasis were reforming I thought I was in it!'
Richard's former band The Verve toured with Oasis back in the early days, and Noel was spotted in the crowd ahead of his own performance to catch some of Richard's set.
After 15 years, Liam and Noel finally reunite for 41 shows across Europe and the 900,000 fans who have eagerly snapped up tickets will not be disappointed with the set list which is crammed with the nineties band's classics.
The streets of Cardiff were 'electric' ahead Oasis's opening night with Wonderwall blasting from work vans while superfans are queuing up to purchase bucket hats and T-shirts.
The much-anticipated night came to a close at around 10:20pm, with Oasis picking Champagne Supernova as their final song of the night.
The next show is set to take place at Cardiff Principality Stadium tomorrow.

Queen Camilla's son reveals the common 'myth' about his mother that just isn't true
Tom Parker-Bowles has revealed the one big 'myth' about his mother Queen Camilla that just isn't true - and it's apparently a very common misconception. Queen Camilla's eldest child, 50, who is based in London, unveiled the truth about his mother in the podcast White Wine Question Time. He told host Kate Thornton that while King Charles 's wife is often pictured enjoying a glass of red wine at social engagements, he has 'never even seen her tipsy'. Parker-Bowles said there is a common 'myth' that Queen Camilla likes to 'knock back a gin and tonic with a cigarette'. However, the food critic said his mother 'doesn't drink gin'. She does, admittedly, 'enjoy a glass of red wine', Parker-Bowles says, insisting his mother is a 'sensible' drinker. He said he has never seen Queen Camilla tipsy - and she hasn't smoked for 20 years. Earlier in the podcast, Parker-Bowles revealed that not having a trust fund when he was younger 'probably' saved his life. He told Thornton that he had a trust fund and did not have to work for financial stability, his life would look very different. 'Sadly, no trust fund. You know, actually, it's a good thing not having a trust fund. I'd probably be dead if I'd had one,' Tom said candidly on the podcast's latest episode. He added, 'Obviously, I had to work like everyone. You know, you have to work. It's important. 'So, I stumbled somewhat into food writing, 25 years ago when the landscape was rather different.' Before falling for food writing, Tom worked various jobs, including a brief stint in PR. He recalled, 'I worked for a wonderful film PR company called DDA and they used to run Cannes and you'd be looking after talent.' 'So you'd be taking Alicia Silverstone round London in the '90s or Anna Friel or whatever. So it wasn't exactly the most arduous task for a straight man. It wasn't the most arduous of jobs, but I was always late.' 'I'm still friends with my bosses, Stacey and Dennis, and they're lovely people. But eventually, enough was enough. I got sacked… So anyway, I was sitting around thinking, you know, what the hell am I going to do? Tom later settled on food writing and is now a regular contributor to the Mail on Sunday and Country Life. It comes after Tom recalled the embarrassing gaffe he made when he met Queen Elizabeth II for the first time. The food critic was discussing his new book, Cooking & the Crown, which traces the history of royal culinary cuisine through the tastes and preferences of Britain's king and queens. Speaking to The Independent, Tom said the book was originally only going to include royal recipes and anecdotes between the reigns of Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth II, giving him a 'degree of separation' since he had only met the late monarch twice. The first time was when he was eight, Tom recalled, adding: 'I was so scared that I curtsied rather than bowed.' When greeting the monarch or a member of the royal family, men traditionally bow their heads (a neck bow) while women do a small curtsy. The next time he would meet the late Queen would be on the occasion of Camilla's wedding to King Charles, when he and his sister Laura Lopes 'snuck out for a fag or something' and got lost in Windsor Castle.

Earlier this year, Fearne admitted life was tough following her marriage breakdown. Yet The Sun previously revealed Fearne, 43, has found love again with TV director Elliot Hegarty.

It's not regular but we have definitely had a pop at each other in front of them — and you don't feel good about it after. I've also shouted at my kids like I think most parents have, especially during lockdown."

Oasis tour 2025: Confirmed Cardiff setlist and who is supporting?
Follow the latest on the Oasis reunion tour The wait is finally over. After 16 years, Oasis reunited last night for the first of two spectacular stadium shows in Cardiff, before embarking on a wider tour that takes in Manchester's Heaton Park, Wembley Stadium in London and Murrayfield in Edinburgh – as well as dates in cities from New York to Sydney and Buenos Aires later in the year. If you're one of the other 1.4 million lucky Britons (or a fan who has travelled around the world to see the first leg of the tour) who secured a ticket, here's our ultimate guide to the decade's most anticipated rock gigs: from all of the tour dates to which bandmates will be joining the Gallaghers on stage, the setlist and all of the confirmed support acts. Skip to What's on the setlist? Who's actually in the band? Who is supporting? Where to buy merch Our tips – from those who've been Ticket information Oasis tour: UK dates and locations Cardiff, Principality Stadium – July 4 and 5 Manchester, Heaton Park – July 11, 12, 16, 19 and 20 London, Wembley Stadium – July 25, 26 and 30; August 2 and 3; September 27 and 28 Edinburgh, Murrayfield Stadium – August 8, 9 and 12 What time are the bands on stage? At the first two dates in Cardiff, doors to the Principality Stadium will open at 17:00, with Cast on stage 18:00, Richard Ashcroft at 19:00 and Oasis at 20:15. The curfew is 22:30. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Oasis (@oasis) What's on the setlist? At the opening concert in Cardiff, the songs were as follows: Hello Acquiesce Morning Glory Some Might Say Bring It On Down Cigarettes & Alcohol Fade Away Supersonic Roll With It Talk Tonight Half the World Away Little By Little D'You Know What I Mean Stand By Me Cast No Shadow Slide Away Whatever Live Forever Rock and Roll Star The Masterplan Don't Look Back in Anger Wonderwall Champagne Supernova Who's actually in the band? The line-up consists of Liam and Noel Gallagher, Andy Bell on bass, Gem Archer and Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs on guitar with session players on drums and keyboard. Who is supporting? The band has been criticised for choosing well-established acts over less well-known up-and-comers, with some fans suggesting Oasis's tour could have provided a much-needed leg-up for fresh new talent. But the artists Oasis have selected should get the crowd fired up regardless: former The Verve frontman Richard Ashcroft will perform solo, as well as indie rock band Cast. Support on the US leg of the tour will come from Cage the Elephant. The dates at Manchester's Heaton Park are expected to start earlier than the ones in stadiums, leading to rumours the event could fling open its doors from earlier in the day and offer other, additional support acts. However, this has not yet been confirmed. Where to buy merch Yet to sort out your bucket hat, Adidas sweatshirt or band tee? Don't fear – to capitalise on demand, there will be numerous official pop-up shops across the country selling Oasis merchandise ahead of the tour. Pop-up stores can be found in Manchester (on The Avenue, Spinningfields), London (Carnaby Street), Cardiff, Edinburgh, Birmingham and Dublin, plus there are official merchandise stands outside and inside the gigs. Fans visiting the pop-up stores will be able to buy exclusive clothing, home accessories (everything from mugs, pint glasses and baby grows to Zippo lighters) and vinyl records. To gain entry, fans can either book an (advised) timed entry slot or queue. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Oasis (@oasis) The Gallagher brothers have also recently announced an exclusive partnership with clothing brand Adidas, consisting of jackets, shirts, T-shirts, sweatshirts, tracksuit bottoms and trainers. These can be purchased (by pre-order) on the official Adidas website as well as online retailer ASOS, plus from an official store in Manchester city centre. Be quick, though: many items have already sold out. Manchester has truly embraced the celebratory atmosphere, with a local Aldi supermarket transforming into 'Aldeh' in a riff on the Gallagher's accents. Our tips – from those who've been The shows are guaranteed to be rowdy, but just try to embrace it. Nobody knows exactly what the performance will entail, but you can count on a fair few pints of beer (and other fluids) being chucked over the crowd, so don't wear your fanciest clothes – comfortable walking shoes, a raincoat and a protective bucket hat are gig/festival staples for a reason. Plus, pack those earplugs: even if the music and speakers aren't too deafening, the screams from the excited crowd are bound to be. Get there early if you're standing and want to source a good spot and not-so-early if you're seated. Oasis will take to the stage in Cardiff at 20:15 with a strict curfew of 22:30. Exact timings for the other shows are yet to be confirmed, but gigs at Wembley Stadium and other similar-sized venues generally finish by 11pm, to conform to noise pollution rules, so expect a kick off of around 8.30pm from Oasis; support acts will start much earlier. The Manchester date, which is taking place outside in Heaton Park, looks set to be more of a day festival-style set-up. Ticket information Tickets for the UK tour sold out in minutes, but it is worth keeping an eye on sites such as Ticketmaster, See Tickets and Twickets for returns and resale tickets. Be careful of scams: unregulated websites purporting to have tickets will probably rip you off, and if you see an amazing bargain on social media, remember – if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. Using PayPal to purchase tickets also adds another layer of protection: remember to mark the payment as 'Goods and Services' so the transaction is protected by the company's Buyer Protection Programme.
