Oasis made a triumphant return on Friday, ending a 16-year hiatus with a high-energy set packed with Britpop classics, launching their reunion tour in Cardiff, Wales to a euphoric crowd reliving the band’s 1990s glory.
And the question on everyone’s mind — have the Gallagher brothers buried the hatchet? Well… definitely maybe.
Liam still carried his trademark swagger as fans from across the globe flocked to the Welsh capital for a long-awaited moment many feared would never come. It marked the first time Liam and Noel Gallagher had shared a stage since Oasis’ bitter breakup in 2009.
One fan’s banner captured the emotion perfectly: “The great wait is over.”
The show began with a montage of infamous headlines chronicling the brothers’ feud, ending with the words “the guns have fallen silent.” Moments later, Oasis hit the stage to a thunderous ovation, opening with the fitting anthem “Hello” and its refrain: “it’s good to be back.”
