Oasis blown away by comeback, Noel Gallagher says
Noel Gallagher has said he and his Oasis bandmates have been "completely blown away" by the response to their hit comeback tour after 16 years to talkSport's Andy Goldstein about the dates so far in the UK and Ireland, he went on to say he was "proud" of his younger brother, frontman Liam, adding "it's been great to be back" in a band with played at Croke Park, Dublin, last weekend and will head to North America next before returning to the UK for more Wembley Stadium dates in London next singer-songwriter admitted it was "difficult to put it into words" so far and added that his legs had "turned to jelly" at the start the first gig back in Cardiff, in July. "Every night is the crowd's first night," he noted. "So every night's got that same energy to it, but it's been truly amazing."I'm not usually short for words, but I can't really articulate it at the minute."After breaking the Internet last year when tickets were released, in controversial fashion due to dynamic pricing meaning many fans missed out or paid over the odds, the brothers first re-emerged on-stage together at the packed home of Welsh rugby with their arms both raised came after many years of solo releases and very public bickering from the estranged BBC's music correspondent Mark Savage noted how the band sounded the "best they've been since the '90s" on their return, which he wrote felt "like a reconciliation - or a sigh of relief - as the brothers buried the hatchet of a decades-long feud and reconnected with their fans". 'Grossly underestimated' Speaking on Tuesday, in what is thought to be the first time publicly about their comeback, which has since also rolled into their hometown Manchester and Edinburgh, Noel Gallagher said: "I grossly underestimated what I was getting into.""After about five minutes, I was like, alright can I just go back to the dressing room and start this again?"I've done stadiums before and all that but I don't mind telling you, my legs had turned to Jelly after about halfway through the second song [Acquiese, which sees the brothers duet together]. And I could have done with going back and taking a minute."But it's been an amazing thing." 'Proud' of Liam Asked how he had felt about his brother giving him a little hug on-stage at the end of the first gig, Gallagher noted: "We're not those kind of guys really, you know what I mean?"It's great just to be back with Bonehead [Oasis's founding guitarist] and Liam and just be doing it again."I guess when it's all said and done, we'll sit and reflect on it. But it's great being back in the band with Liam - I forgot how funny he was."He added that Liam was "smashing it" and that he was "proud of him", joking that his apparent return to singing form must be down to "AI".The 58-year-old, who has been singing five of the 23 songs each night throughout the tour, continued: "Having fronted a band [Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds] for 16 years. I know how difficult that is."I couldn't do the stadium thing like he does it; it's not in my nature. But I've got to say, I think, you know, good for you mate. He's been amazing."He brushed aside an attempt to ask what might happen with the band at the scheduled end of the tour in November. The Oasis Live '25 reunion tour has made the headlines since it Oasis fan died when he fell from a height at one of the band's Wembley Stadium concerts this Wembley's authorities said they were investigating allegations that hundreds of Oasis fans were able to sneak into one of the gigs at the venue without a gigs so far have also provided many memorable viral moments, including a marriage proposal at Murrayfield, where Liam also described the City of Edinburgh Council as "a bunch of snakes", following a report which had suggested the band's fans would be "rowdy" and "intoxicated".The band next play in Toronto on Sunday evening.

Irvine Welsh: Edinburgh Festival is great but I'm more excited about Hibs
The 66-year-old Trainspotting writer has returned to the Scottish capital for the premiere of his documentary, Reality Is Not Enough, which will close the Edinburgh International Film Festival. Directed by Paul Sng, the immersive documentary is said to be a thrilling and revealing exploration of Welsh, following his huge success with several film adaptations and six million books sold worldwide, and his awareness of mortality. In it, Welsh, who appears on screen, embarks on a wild journey into the boundaries of consciousness. He undergoes psychedelic-enhanced therapy and reflects on how intoxication can open up new perspectives. 'There's an upside to drug-taking, because there's a real exploratory, consciousness-raising aspect to it, as well as a sense of bonding with others in a festival-type environment,' Welsh told the PA news agency. 'But there's also a very negative side to it, a side that's about running away from things.' The film also explores how Welsh's creativity was shaped by his childhood in Edinburgh, the influences he absorbed from London's 1970s counterculture, and how ground breaking works such as Trainspotting and Filth helped pull him out of a self-destructive cycle. The autobiographical film combines intimate observational footage, rare archive film clips and readings from his novels narrated by stars Liam Neeson, Maxine Peake, Ruth Negga and Stephen Graham, and musician Nick Cave. BIG ANNOUNCEMENT 📢 #EIFF25 will close with the World Premiere of documentary 'Reality Is Not Enough.' Director Paul Sng follows one of the most controversial writers of our times, Trainspotting author Irvine Welsh, as he explores the boundaries of consciousness. — Edinburgh International Film Festival (@edfilmfest) May 30, 2025 Reflecting on his success as a writer, Welsh said he does not dwell too much on a project as he's always looking towards the next thing. 'If it's a book, a film, a record or a TV show, once you've created it and put it out into the world, it's an act of giving it away,' said Welsh. 'By then, you're already immersed in the next one. I just move from one project to the next. 'I don't really take the time to reflect on them or figure out where they sit in the grand scheme of things. 'That's why it's interesting for me to watch myself on screen, being compelled to talk about them and think about them in that way.' Welsh is a constant fixture at the Edinburgh festivals, whether speaking at the book festival or through Trainspotting Live, the immersive adaptation of his novel that features at the Fringe each year. Although he features heavily in the festival programme, Welsh himself says he would prefer to be at the pub or watching his favourite football team, Hibs. 'I should be swathed in culture, but all I've been thinking about is Hibs are back in the Europa League,' he laughs. 'Oasis were here too. I got to go to the shows at Murrayfield, and they were absolutely fabulous, just mind blowing. 'Hibs and Oasis, basically, has been my festival.' Irvine Welsh: Reality Is Not Enough will premiere at the Edinburgh Film Festival on Wednesday August 20.
