Oasis made a triumphant return to their hometown of Manchester tonight, to 80,000 fans & rave reviews

Their old music is charting again, with 3 albums in the top 5, and 3 singles in the top 20: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2025/jul/11/oasis-take-over-uk-charts-as-reunion-tour-hits-manchester

Rave reviews from the BBC - https://www.bbc.com/news/live/cgq7exg4222t - and the Manchester Evening News:

Fans were thrilled with the way they walked on stage together:




And since they were outdoors for this show, at Heaton Park - they'd been in an arena when the tour started in Cardiff - they ended with fireworks after Champagne Supernova. I've found 3 videos of that finale so far, from different angles, and I'm posting all 3 below.

in the middle of a semi-acoustic concert I just posted at https://www.democraticunderground.com/1034147887 .

Your favorite Oasis song starts about 19 and a half minutes in there.

You were right, I enjoyed it. Maybe one of these days I'll get to see them in person.
