Liam Gallagher sends important Oasis set timings message to fans ahead of opening night in Cardiff
Liam Gallagher has sent a message to fans ahead of Oasis' opening night in Cardiff next week.
The brothers are due to take to the stage in Cardiff's Principality Stadium next Friday (July 4) on the first top on their Live '25 reunion tour.
Announced last August to feverish excitement, anticipation for the band's first gigs in 16 years has been building to a fever pitch in recent weeks.
Now, with less than a week to go, Liam took to X this morning (June 28) to confirm what time the band will be taking to the stage.
In a now-deleted tweet, he wrote: "OASIS on stage 8:15pm Cardiff don't be late or we'll start without you and you don't want that now do ya see ya there LG x".

As the Principality Stadium has a curfew of 10:30pm, it could well be that fans are treated to a two-hour set - though some were surprised by the news.
"That's a bit early Liam," wrote X user @sslideaway. "Don't blame me I do the singing and scowling," Gallagher replied.
Others were amused by his apparent turn as stage manager. "You're the band scheduler now?" asked @alivedemo; "Looks like it," he replied.
But he soon changed his mind on his apparent new role, responding to a fan asking about set times at Edinburgh Murrayfield: "I've been asked to share this information with you all I'm not doing this every f***ing gig I'm not the TM".

The band are to perform 19 shows in the UK and Ireland over July and August, before a string of dates in North America.
For any fans worried about the weather in the Welsh capital next week, a fan guide sent out to Ticketmaster customers yesterday confirmed that the roof at the Principality Stadium will be closed.
And on Friday (June 27) the band shared a new clip to their Instagram page marking one week to go until the tour kicks off. The opening bars of their 1994 debut single Supersonic play over clips of the stadium being set up - ready to welcome nearly 75,000 eager fans.

In New York, this Chinese restaurant is an icon. In Miami, it's closing after a year
Another upscale restaurant is closing in Miami, this time after only a year. RedFarm, the Chinese restaurant from New York famous for its dim sum and Peking duck, announced that it will be shutting down after service this Sunday. It opened in the former site of Mr. Moe's in Coconut Grove at 3131 Commodore Plaza in February of 2024. The New York and Austin, Texas, RedFarm locations will remain open. Created by restaurateur Ed Schoenfeld with partners Jeffrey Chodorow, his son Zach Chodorow and Alex Pirez, the restaurant announced its plans on Instagram in a tersely worded statement with none of the usual effusive thanks or flourishes. 'Thank you to all of our guests who joined us in Miami,' the post read. 'We wanted to let you know that we will be closing our Coconut Grove location at the end of service this Sunday, June 29.' The post went on to say that the Chodorows plan to reopen RedFarm in South Florida in the future and that signature dishes, such as Ed's pastrami egg rolls and the colorful Pac Man shrimp dumplings will return. At the moment, no new site has been announced. The first RedFarm opened in New York's West Village in 2011. Miami native Jeffrey Chodorow, best known here for opening the famous China Grill in Miami Beach in the mid 1990s, said in 2024 that opening in South Florida had always been in the back of his mind. 'As a Miami native and resident, I always knew we would bring RedFarm here,' he said. 'Not only because I'm always craving RedFarm's dishes, but many of our New York customers spend a lot of time here, or have moved here, and our Miami friends kept asking me when we were going to open here.' The closing comes at a time of mild upheaval in the Coconut Grove culinary scene. At the end of May, the Michelin-recommended Portuguese restaurant Sereia closed after a only year. The Italian restaurant Like Mike, which opened in 2022 and was located at 3433 Main Highway, quietly closed as well and is being taken over by the Italian seafood spot Sapore de Mare, its Grove neighbor. Also gone is Chef Michael Schwartz's Harry's Pizzeria at 2996 McFarlane Road. The brand also quietly closed its South Beach location.

Swedish House Mafia teases NYC return with cryptic Times Square billboard
Swedish House Mafia may be plotting a return to the Big Apple — and New Yorkers are already losing it. The iconic electronic dance music trio — Axwell, Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso — sparked a frenzy Wednesday when the supergroup made a surprise announcement in Times Square: 'New York See You Soon. Swedish House Mafia.' 4 The Times Square billboard flashed during a livestream of the group's three-hour Stockholm set, where they debuted a new track, 'Wait So Long.' Getty Images for Atlantis The Royal Advertisement The message flashed on a billboard during a livestream of their three-hour set in Stockholm, where they debuted a new track, 'Wait So Long.' Just a week earlier, they'd wiped their Instagram clean and posted a shadowy photo of the three of them with the cryptic caption '3.0' — a move that racked up nearly 100,000 likes and marked what fans are calling a new era. A screenshot of the billboard's location — West 50th and Broadway — was then posted to the group's Instagram story, sending fans into a frenzy across TikTok, Reddit and EDM fan pages. 'I beg tell me when, I need to be there,' vowed one user on TikTok. Advertisement 4 The billboard's surprise debut during a Stockholm livestream lit up TikTok, where fans instantly began posting about their excitement — some even vowing to come out of 'retirement' if the group hits NYC. @dol1house/ X 'Pulling out of retirement just for them,' another added. Danielle Tourloukis, 24, a self-described 'huge fan' of Swedish House Mafia who lives in Murray Hill, told the Post that hearing the news gave her 'chills.' 'Can't wait to be dancing to this again,' she wrote in a TikTok from her account @itsdanitour, sharing a video of herself and two friends dancing in the streets of New York to Swedish House Mafia's 'One.' Advertisement 4 The group wiped their Instagram clean just days before the livestream and posted a shadowy photo with the caption '3.0,' racking up nearly 100,000 likes. Getty Images Despite the tease, the group hasn't announced any U.S. dates on their current tour, which has them headlining festivals across Europe. Their last NYC appearance was a surprise April 2024 set at Brooklyn Mirage. Formed in Stockholm in the late 2000s, the group remains one of the most recognizable names in EDM, with smash hits like 'Don't You Worry Child,' 'Save The World' and 'Miami 2 Ibiza.' They have sold out stadiums around the world — including Madison Square Garden in 2011. Advertisement 4 The group's current tour has them headlining festivals across Europe — but no U.S. dates have been announced, leaving NYC fans anxiously waiting. @mimimoments/TikTok The group split in 2013 after their farewell 'One Last Tour,' but reunited in 2018 and have since launched a new label, released their debut studio album 'Paradise Again' in 2022 and headlined festivals including Coachella.
