Oasis are making a long-awaited return to Scotland in just a matter of days. On August 8, 9, and 12, Liam and Noel Gallagher - and the rest of the band - will perform north of the border once more.
It's been 16 long years since the Britpop icons played in Scotland - so this run of gigs are highly anticipated. Oasis kicked off their reunion tour in Cardiff on July 4.
They then headed to Heaton Park in Manchester for a five-night series of hometown shows. They are currently in the midst of a run at Wembley in London, with our reporter Fionnuala Boyle making the trip to the UK capital for one of the shows.
Once they finish up at Wembley, it's Scotland's turn. More than 200,000 music fans will descend on Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh over the trio of shows.
Classics like Wonderwall and Live Forever will be belted out from the home of Scottish rugby and the shows are likely to be something revellers remember for a long time to come.
With Oasis making their iconic return to Scotland in just a few short days, some music fans have been left wondering about the Gallaghers' relationship with Scotland, and whether they've ever graced the stage at Murrayfield before.
Well, here's everything you need to know about the brothers' past Scottish gigs.
Have Oasis played Murrayfield Stadium before?
Oasis played Murrayfield Stadium twice, most recently in 2009, just before their infamous argument. They played in June, mere weeks before their last ever gig for 16 years.
The band also previously played Murrayfield in the year 2000. Some other notable Scottish gigs that the pair have played include the show at King Tut's in Glasgow in May 1993 that got them signed, as well as Plaza and Cathouse in December of the same year, also both in Glasgow.
Oasis played a series of gigs in Scotland in 1994, including Gleneagles, La Belle Angel in Edinburgh, Tramway in Glasgow, and the iconic long-gone Scots festival T in the Park.
Other legendary Scottish venues and festivals that saw Oasis take stage before their break-up included Glasgow's Barrowlands, Glasgow Green Festival and Edinburgh's Usher Hall, according to their 'gigography'.
Can you still buy tickets for the Oasis reunion dates in Edinburgh?
General admission for the Edinburgh dates sold out almost instantly, like all of the tour dates for Oasis' reunion. However, several other options still exist to try and bag resale tickets, although you'll have to be quick on the ball.
Twickets is a reselling site that offers a platform for fans to sell their tickets at face value or less. If you're lucky, you could catch a ticket this way, but be careful- if you blink you could miss it.

Ticketmaster also offers a verified ticket resale service, but again, you'll have to be vigilant to catch one before it sells again.
After their many UK dates, including the three Edinburgh shows, the Oasis tour then goes worldwide with dates in Brazil, Australia, South Korea, Japan and the US.
