After more than 16 years apart, media feuds, and closed doors, the Gallagher brothers reunited on stage. Oasis sealed its historic comeback last Friday in Cardiff, Wales, with a colossal show in front of more than 70,000 people. This is how Oasis Live 25 began, the anniversary tour that celebrates its most iconic albums and that, in November, will arrive with two dates at the Monumental stadium.
The concert lasted two hours and was an emotional avalanche from the first chord. Liam and Noel entered the Principality Stadium arm in arm, with a calm demeanor that contrasted with the audience's euphoria. On the screens, a message that said it all: "The long wait is over". Then, the collective shout: "It's good to be back", the opening line of Hello, marked the start of a setlist focused on Definitely Maybe (1994) and (What's the Story) Morning Glory? (1995), essential albums of Britpop.
Who achieved the impossible: Bonehead, the silent mediator
During the second show of the tour, Noel surprised the audience by revealing who had truly been the architect of the reconciliation with his brother: Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs, Oasis's original guitarist and a key member on the band's first three albums.
