Earlier, Liam, boiling in a thick coat on stage, shouted: 'Yes, beautiful people, simmer down', as the band settled in for their set — which was ear-splittingly loud in the Principality Stadium.
Noel and Liam chose songs mainly from their first two albums, 1994's Definitely Maybe and 1995's (What's The Story) Morning Glory?.

Before Cigarettes & Alcohol, Liam urged the crowd: 'I want you to do us a favour. I don't ask much.
'I want you to turn around, every single one of you. Put your arms around each other like you like each other and when the tune starts you jump up and down. It's f***ing easy.'
Joking again later with the crowd, before playing Slide Away, Liam asked: 'You're all having a good time yeah? Was it worth the £40,000 you paid for a ticket?'
