Oasis returns to the British crowd after 16 years of holiday – National

Oasis finished 16 years off on Friday, ending one of Britpop's best songbooks with a punchy, powerful trip, and launched a reunion tour in Cardiff, Wales, becoming a crowd of crowds that eclipsed 1990s hits.

And was there a brotherly love between the famous Gallagher brothers and sisters? Certainly probably.

Liam's sw walking is not interrupted

Fans traveled to the Welsh capital from around the world for a show that many thoughts never happen. Noel and Liam Gallagher, the heart of the Oasis, have not played together since the band's intense split in 2009.

One fan banner summed it up: “The amazing wait is over.”

After a headline montage about Sparring's brothers concluded with the words “The gun was silent,” Oasis appeared on stage with deafening roars, opening unassumingly with “hello” and “I'm back.”

The brothers spent a moment holding simple hands, but mostly distanced. Noel, 58, focused on the guitar, while Liam, 52, was covered in a hoodie, narrated to the microphone with a swagger that wasn't dark in the 30 years since the band released their first album.

The crowd of over 60,000 people at the Principal Stadium was treated to a two-hour set of pace, two-hour set, along with the shattering of the later tracks and fanfari B-sides, in the morning glory of the first album and its 1995 follow-up (what is the story).

Songs like Supersonic, Roll With It, and Rock 'n' Roll Star still thundered and sparked a ton of songs.

“Turn Around,” Liam, a tambourine-crowded, encouraged the crowd before firing another classic, cigarettes and alcohol. “Leave your arms on each other, just like you love each other.”

It was heartbreaking forever when the image of Dio Gojota, a Liverpool Football Club player killed in a car accident on Thursday, was projected onto the band.

Noel won lead vocals for several songs, including Touching Half the World Away, and the show ended with an encore featuring some of Oasis's most enduring tracks.

Multicolored, sometimes faintly psychedelic projections formed the main technical equipment of the show, which focused on the song. There was little joke, but paused between songs to check that the audience was having a good time.

“Was it worth the £40,000 you paid for the ticket?” he asked at one point, referring to the scrambling of seats where some fans paid hundreds to watch the show.

That was from the roaring of the crowd.

“Very, very special”

The show in Cardiff launched a 19-day live '25 tour in the UK and Ireland. It will then stop in North America, South America, Asia and Australia, and end in Sao Paulo on November 23rd.

Before the show, the streets around the stadium were full of fans gathering in groups, singing along to the band's hits, and taking pictures of Oasis branded bucket hats for $48 each.

“It's very special – it's emotional,” said Rob Mall, 44, from Edinburgh, Scotland. “I'm here with three friends, a childhood friend. We were watching oasis all over the country.

“For us, it's a generational thing. It's a chapter in our lives,” he said. “And second generation because people are taking kids. That's really special.”

Vicki Moynehan came from Dorchester, southwest England. She said her life has changed since buying tickets almost a year ago.

“Seven months pregnant – I'm not going to stop me,” she said.

Trend now

Singing rock chorus

Founded in 1991 on the working-class streets of Manchester, England, Oasis was one of the dominant British acts of the 1990s, releasing the UK's number eight album.

The band's sound was fueled by Sing Along Rock chorus and flammable chemistry between guitarist and songwriter Noel Gallagher – the Beatles and glamour rock-loving musicians and brother Liam, who have a memorable song trick.

Since then, the brothers often traded barbs on stage, in studios and interviews. Liam once called Noel the “Tofu Boy,” but Noel said that he “is the most angry man you'll meet. He's like the guy who has a fork in the world of soup.”

For a long time, they resisted the pressure to reunite, even though they promised a multi-million-dollar payday.

Now they have agreed to a tour of guitar, bassist Andy Bell and drummer Joey Wolronker on a hem of former Oasis members Paul “Bonehead” Arthur and Gem Archer.

“An incredible explosion”

The announcement of the UK tour in August sparked a ticket-buying fuss with error messages, an online cue of time, an hour of hope, and an outrage over prices that surged at the last moment.

Some fans who waited online for hours on the Ticketmaster site complained that they ended up paying $485 for a regular standing ticket, rather than the expected $202.

Ticket troubles sparked doubts in the UK Parliament, with Arts Minister Chris Bryant criticizing “the practice of blindly watching fans of live events due to price increases.” Since then, UK competition regulators have threatened Ticketmasters (which sold about 900,000 OASIS tickets), which have taken legal action.

No plans have been announced for Oasis to record new music, and the tour is being presented as a one-off.

Music writer John Eislewood said Oasis was an opportunity for the band to “tend legacy” and reminding people of the power of the Oasis brand.

“There should be a great sense of joy and a life affirmation about these shows, and if they can play it right, I think it could be a great polish to their legacy,” he said. “(There is) this enduring love for Oasis, and love means money.”

Fans decided to enjoy the moment.

“I'm the oldest of four brothers, so I know they'll fall,” said Stephen Truscott, from Middlesbrough, northeastern England. “(But) the first night they'll have an incredible explosion. It'll be the best.”
