Iconic '90s Rock Band Fooled Fans With 'First' Soundcheck in 15 Years — See Viral Clip
It's been 15 years since this beloved band last took the stage together — and now, they're closer than ever to reuniting.
Though Oasis had split in 2009, they recently announced they've put their feud aside and will perform together on Friday, July 4.
'The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised,' the band wrote in their announcement.
Kicking off their tour in the Welsh capital, the Gallagher brothers are slated to perform across the UK throughout the summer.
As preparations for the show got underway, fans lingered near the venue hoping for a sneak peek of the band rehearsing their set.
Videos from the soundcheck quickly went viral across social media, including clips of the band performing their hit track 'Cigarettes and Alcohol.'
One fan posted on X, 'Epic! Cannot wait for Friday!!' while another added, 'I know this is just a soundcheck, but the bumps are goosing.'
Another user, disappointed at missing out on tickets, wrote, 'I've been chilled about not getting tickets but that is cool as f--k. Shivers.'

However, some fans were skeptical the band was actually performing live since Noel's voice was missing from the recordings.
'I believe this audio is from the Definitely Maybe tour rehearsals last year,' one person suggested, while another added, 'This is a pre recording to test sound levels i would assume. Not sure the band are actually there.'
Amid the speculation, Liam Gallagher took to X on Monday, June 30 to set the record straight — and it was a bit of a bummer.
When asked if he and Noel Gallagher were performing live, Liam replied, 'I've been in my pool all day doing under water farts, so it's defo a recording from rehearsals unless there's 2 of me, which I'm absolutely 1 million per cent here for.'
Regardless, excitement remains high for the reunion. Formed in 1991, Oasis had quite a contentious history together.
Despite this, the band toured and released new music until their breaking point on August 28, 2009. According to Noel, the brothers had a fistfight before their world tour and started traveling separately to shows.
'[Liam] goes out the dressing room, for whatever reason, he went to his own dressing room, and he came back with a guitar, and he started wielding it like an axe, and I'm not f— kidding,' Noel said in 2015 to Far Out Magazine.
'I'm making light of it because it's kind of what I do, but it was a real unnecessary violent act. He nearly took my face off with it.' Following the fight, Noel decided it was time to walk away from the band and his brother.
It seems time has healed old wounds, as the brothers have put the past behind them — giving fans 24 chances to see Oasis live again, hopefully without any flying guitars.

David Beckham's Silent Hospital Stay Has Fans Asking Questions
David Beckham's Silent Hospital Stay Has Fans Asking Questions originally appeared on Men's Fitness. David Beckham was recently hospitalized. His wife, Victoria Beckham, shared a photo to her Instagram story of David on June 27. She wrote "Get well soon daddy" over the photo, accompanied by a heart emoji. In the photo, David is wearing a hospital gown and hooked up to wires, flashing a soft smile at the camera. His right arm is in a blue sling. The following story on Victoria's Instagram was a photo of David holding a beaded friendship bracelet that spelled out "get well soon." The picture looked like it was taken outside the hospital, possibly alluding that he was has not publicly addressed his hospitalization, nor has Victoria provided additional details of what landed him there. But, some speculate that it may have to do with an old injury from his soccer-playing days. Beckham recently underwent surgery to fix a wrist fracture he originally suffered 22 years ago during a 2003 international friendly against South Africa. The cast Beckham wore right after the injury even ended up being included on his wax figure at Madame Tussauds in Hong Kong back in 2003, Sports Illustratedshared. But new X-ray revealed that a screw from the initial operation had remained lodged in his forearm and hadn't dissolved as intended, as the New York Postreported. David has been open about the injuries he dealt with throughout his playing career, admitting he regrets taking multiple painkilling injections—including three in his ankle—just to make it through his final game for Real Madrid in Beckham's Silent Hospital Stay Has Fans Asking Questions first appeared on Men's Fitness on Jun 27, 2025 This story was originally reported by Men's Fitness on Jun 27, 2025, where it first appeared.

What is a high-risk performer?
The BBC has announced that it will no longer be broadcasting 'high-risk' performances, following Bob Vylan's controversial Glastonbury show. The rap duo were criticised for leading a chant of 'death to the IDF [Israel Defence Forces]', which was broadcast on the BBC. It led to an onslaught of criticism, including calls for Tim Davie, the BBC's director-general, to resign. Bob Vylan are being investigated by police after allegedly calling for 'death to every single IDF soldier out there' at a concert one month before Glastonbury. The BBC has since apologised and said that it was 'clear that errors were made.' However, the question of what will be deemed appropriate to broadcast on the BBC moving forward remains murky. What is a 'high-risk' performer and who decides if an act fits this category? Bob Vylan's performance at Glastonbury brought renewed attention to the BBC's broadcasting protocols. Following the incident, the corporation issued a statement, expressing 'regret that such offensive and deplorable behaviour appeared on the BBC'. It apologised to viewers, particularly the Jewish community, emphasizing that 'there can be no place for antisemitism at, or on, the BBC'. The statement explained that Bob Vylan were deemed 'high-risk' before their performance. It said: 'a decision was taken that compliance risks could be mitigated in real time on the live stream - through the use of language or content warnings - without the need for a delay. This was clearly not the case. During the performance, the live stream was monitored in line with the agreed compliance protocols and a number of issues were escalated. Warnings appeared on the stream on two occasions and the editorial team took the decision not to cut the feed. This was an error." The statement went on: "The Director-General was subsequently made aware of what had happened and instructed the team that none of the performance should feature in further coverage. The team prioritised stopping the performance from featuring on demand. This meant that no downloads of Bob Vylan's set were available on iPlayer or Sounds. However, the live feed, which was showing subsequent performances from other acts on the same Glastonbury stage, remained up until it was amended shortly after 8pm while teams worked on a technical solution.' According to the BBC, seven acts including Bob Vylan were classed as 'high-risk' before Glastonbury and 'they were all deemed suitable for livestreaming with appropriate mitigations.' However, it does not explain what a high-risk performance is or who makes this decision. The BBC defines 'High Risk' as 'work that carries a significantly higher than normal risk of death or serious injury as a consequence of operating in, or being part of'. Following the incident, the BBC has said that editorial policy will be available on site at major events, alongside more "detailed, practical" guidance on when to take down a live feed. The Standard has reached out to the BBC for clarification about what a high-risk performer is and who makes this decision.
