Anais has made a sweet cameo on the tracks as well, with a youthful voice chiming in "that's rock and roll baby". Anais, who is currently dating It's A Sin heartthrob Callum Scott Howells, giggled in confirmation that those were indeed her words spoken at seven. She's also expected to be in attendance at tonight's gig at Heaton Park. Just last night, Noel paid an emotional homage to The Royle Family's Caroline Aherne during his performance.

Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Rock icon Liam Gallagher faced a mixed reception at the monumental Oasis reunion gig in Heaton Park, Manchester, but it wasn't his tunes that caused a stir. The Gallagher brothers, Liam and Noel, were welcomed with thunderous applause as they made their way onto stage hand in hand on Friday night at the grand outdoor setting. However, the concert took an unanticipated twist when Liam stopped to offer a sincere dedication. Liam declared: "I'd like to dedicate this to the greatest manager of all time, Mr Pep Guardiola." The mention of the Manchester City boss sparked some discontent among attendees, eliciting a wave of boos. Unbothered, Liam hit back with: "Who you f***ing booing, who you f***ing booing." Soon after, a life-size cut-out of Pep Guardiola, replete with a Man City scarf, came into view on stage. The audience's discontent transformed into chuckles, and with the atmosphere lightened, Liam launched into a robust performance of 'D'You Know What I Mean'. Adding to the backstage buzz, Pep Guardiola was spotted among the Gallaghers, catching up with Noel's daughter and Liam's sons, reports the Mirror. In a tribute to local comedic talent, Noel honoured Caroline Aherne and Craig Cash, celebrated for The Royle Family, dedicating: "This one's for Caroline and Craig" ahead of playing an acoustic rendition of the sitcom's theme, Half the World Away. Before Oasis dazzled the crowd, Cast treated fans to a special guest appearance during their set, and Richard Ashcroft acknowledged a Mancunian music legend in his act. Neighbourhood festival vibes are peaking as local residents without tickets get imaginative, soaking up the concert hype in their back gardens while Oasis rocks Heaton Park. With thousands of enthusiastic supporters at Heaton Park, not everyone watching live streams from home has been impressed—one disgruntled fan declared: "The crowd is mental, mental for not enjoying the show." Disapproval spread with remarks like: "This crowd wasted their money on the tickets." and others chimed in with opinions such as: "Cardiff crowd definitely was better. well seemed it." Some expected more energy, with one expressing: "thought the crowd would be mental here." Comments continued with observations that several attendees were preoccupied chatting: "More people stood around talking no appreciating what a great song probably all waiting for Wonderwall," said another fan. Frustrations mounted as a spectator shared: "Wtf shouldn't be able to hear people's convos at an oasis homecoming gig." Accusations flew with posts like: "Fake fans," and one sharply criticising: "Noasis would have better atmosphere." Amidst the music and mayhem, Liam Gallagher couldn't resist a nod to sibling rivalry, jokingly taking a dig at brother Noel before belting out Rock N Roll Star: "Listen up beautiful people this is going to be our last song. "Thanks for sticking with us. I know we are difficult, but you wanna try being in the band."

Oasis fans boo Liam Gallagher as he dedicates song to the 'greatest of all time'
Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher found himself facing boos from the crowd at the band's triumphant homecoming show at Heaton Park in Manchester on Friday night. Although, somewhat predictably, it was due to football rather than anything to do with the performance. Reunited brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher walked out to a hero's welcome, hand in hand, at the huge park on Friday night. But mid-way through the show, Liam brought things to a halt to make a special dedication. He said: "I'd like to dedicate this to the greatest manager of all time, Mr Pep Guardiola." But the mention of the Manchester City boss sparked some boos in the crowd. Clearly unimpressed, Liam retorted: "Who you f***ing booing, who you f***ing booing?" A video also panned to a life-sized cut-out of Pep that was placed on stage, with a Man City scarf around his neck. Thankfully it was greeted by laughs from the audience and Liam launched into an emphatic version of D'You Know What I Mean. In fact, Pep himself was spotted backstage at the show ahead of the band's headline performance. He was pictured posing with members of the Gallagher family, including Noel's daughter and Liam's sons. Earlier in the show, Noel had made a dedication to Manc royalty - The Royle Family's creators, comedians Caroline Aherne and Craig Cash. He said: "This one's for Caroline and Craig" before performing an acoustic singalong of the TV show's theme tune Half the World Away. Ahead of the band performing, Cast brought out a surprise guest for their opening support slot, whilst Richard Ashcroft paid tribute to a Manchester music legend on stage. Oasis will perform two sold-out shows in Croke Park in Dublin next month. Tickets for the Oasis reunion sold out across all venues due to huge demand when they went online earlier in the year. However, there are still several options available for fans trying to snag a last-minute spot. Limited last-minute tickets can be bought from the official Ticketmaster resale site, where fans who can no longer go sell their seats, although these tend to go into and out of stock quickly. Elsewhere, resale sites like Viagogo, Vivid Seats, StubHub and Twickets are selling tickets for various dates, although fans should always bear in mind that many official sites, such as Ticketmaster and Live Nation, discourage the purchase of resale tickets. Meanwhile, Seat Unique has some VIP tickets available offering a host of additional perks alongside access to the gig.
