Oasis get hero's homecoming at first night in Heaton Park
Oasis returned to their home city on Friday night (July 11) as part of their long-awaited reunion tour. Even fans without a ticket had gathered outside Heaton Park in the scorching heat to listen to one of the year's biggest gigs. At a quarter past eight, the Burnage brothers emerged triumphantly hand in hand, and the crowd went wild. Starting strong with (What's the Story) Morning Glory? opener Hello, the Gallagher's voices were drowned out by the crowd's singing throughout every track. Acquiesce came next - with its chorus "because we need each other, we believe in one another" a perfect soundtrack for the brothers overcoming their feud. There wasn't a single song where the audience didn't sing every word - the atmosphere was absolutely electric. Even after almost two decades, it felt as if they never left. The crowd were singing every word (Image: Newsquest) Liam said: "It's good to be back - thanks for sticking with us" before the band broke into Bring it On Down. He then told the audience to turn around before breaking into a standout performance of Cigarettes and Alcohol. The set list was full of hits from their classic first two albums, with fan favourites including Supersonic, Slide Away and Live Forever. The duo ended the night with a monumental encore of The Masterplan, Don't Look Back in Anger and Wonderwall. Champagne Supernova - the final song - saw pyrotechnics light up the skies for a truly biblical end to a fantastic performance.

Liam Gallagher shares truth behind Oasis' 'final plans' with 3-word statement
Liam Gallagher has answered fans on social media after they were left disappointed at band manager Alec McKinlay's apparent reveal that there will be no more new Oasis tunes Liam Gallagher has hit back at speculation regarding any future Oasis tunes in the way he knows best. The singer, 52, has refused to let other people talk for him - and that includes the iconic band's manager. Manager Alec McKinlay had opened up on what it was like working with Liam and his brother Noel as the pair get ready for an epic summer of reunion gigs. However, he had appeared to pour cold water on the idea of new material, much to the disappointment of fans. However, Liam has had his say, casting doubt over Alec's claims in brutal fashion. The singer took to X, formerly known as Twitter to contradict his manager's input. He boldly said any reveal would come from him or his brother only. His message came after one follower had claimed the dismissal by Alec didn't feel "very biblical". It led to Liam hitting back in typical fashion: "Neither do I and the only people that will be making any kind of decisions on the future of OASIS will be ME n RKID so let's just take it one day at a time." He reaffirmed his stance later on as he answered another fan. They had claimed there "must be a degree of truth" in Alec's words for him to say it. Liam bluntly labelled Alec the "accountant" for the band. Last week, fans were adamant they had figured out what the band's first song will be in their reunion tour. It came after a cryptic teaser post on Instagram ahead of the first concert on July 4. Although there has been no official announcement yet, sharp-eyed supporters think the recent share on the platform could be a hint to the opener. The band's official Instagram account shared a visual clue which showed what looked like to be a five-track setlist. In it, one notably swapped out for 'Songbird' from 2002, a crowd-pleaser among the Oasis faithful. The teaser post was captioned: "Less than two months to go. What's your dream opener?" A post to the r/Oasis subreddit later sparked fan theories as to what this puzzle signifies, sending them into overdrive. It showed the song list reading Supersonic, Rock and Roll Star, Bring it On Down, Champagne Supernova, and Songbird. However, Songbird had been penned beneath Better Man, which is visibly struck through. One user pondered: "What are all your thoughts on this? Seems odd, I'd never imagine they'd open with the last two? And why scratch out better man? Cryptic. Interested to hear what you make of it." Another fan thought it wasn't the start of their song list, however, suggesting: "This is 100% one of Noel's early setlist drafts from the Heathen Chemistry tour that they plucked out of some archive. It's not current. These are not clues about what will be on the setlist."
