It was a far cry from his rock 'n' roll star brother Liam's arrival as cameras clamoured to get a shot of him through the window of a car. It was Liam who had earlier revealed the Gallagher brothers would be blowing off the cobwebs and belting out their classic tunes ahead of their hotly-anticipated summer stadium shows. The group's last gig was at V Festival in 2009, before they split following a huge row backstage at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris. The former feuding brothers have now put their differences aside as they get ready for the tour of the decade which kicks off next month.

Oasis' links to Wales including one member who is actually Welsh
Oasis' links to Wales including one member who is actually Welsh Legendary indie band Oasis are coming back to Wales as they embark on an epic comeback tour next month. The Gallagher brothers have performed together many times in Cardiff before, and the band actually has very strong links with the city and other parts of Wales Noel Gallagher performs with Oasis in Cardiff back in 1996 (Image: Media Wales ) Oasis are gearing up to launch their massive reunion tour in Cardiff, with the Gallagher brothers set to take to the stage together for the first time in 16 years in under a month's time. The concerts, part of the Oasis Live '25 tour announced last year, take place on Friday, July 4, and Saturday, July 5. Many were surprised and delighted that the iconic '90s band chose the Welsh capital as the city to kick-start what is one of the most eagerly awaited musical tours in rock or pop history. They could have chosen any city in the UK - or the world - to start Oasis Live '25, but all eyes will be on the Principality Stadium in early July. From superstar gigs to cosy pubs, find out What's On in Wales by signing up to our newsletter here, reports Wales Online. Perhaps the venue for the first two comeback concerts should not come as a surprise, given the band's strong connections to Wales. After all, they recorded their hit second album (What's the Story) Morning Glory? around 40 miles from Cardiff at the world-famous Rockfield Studios in Monmouthshire. The album went on to sell more than 22 million copies across the world. It's regarded by many as the band's finest work, boasting hits including Wonderwall, Don't Look Back in Anger, Some Might Say, and Champagne Supernova. Three miles away from Rockfield Studios you'll find The Royal Oak pub in the market town of Monmouth, and had you popped in there in the summer of 1995 there's a fair chance you would have seen frontman Liam Gallagher drinking pints late into the night. Article continues below During the recording of the album at Rockfield - which was released in October 1995 - Liam admitted that he 'spent more time in the pub than I did here". He said: "I'd do my singing and I'd come back and our kid (Noel Gallagher) would still be playing the same f****** riff over and over and over again". You can read much more about Liam's experiences of Rockfield and Monmouth here. Oasis have also performed numerous times in Cardiff, including at the then-Millennium Stadium in 2009 on the Dig Out Your Soul Tour and back in 2005 as part of the Noise and Confusion show, where they were supported by the Foo Fighters. It seems odd to think it now, given Oasis have totally sold out stadium shows all over the UK and Ireland this summer, but the band actually played Cardiff International Arena - with its relatively small capacity of around 7,000 people for a music gig - as recently as October 2008. Liam Gallagher performs with Oasis at Cardiff International Arena in 1997 (Image: PA ) Oasis also played the arena, located on Mary Ann Street in the centre of Cardiff, in 1996, 1997 and 2002. Meanwhile, the band performed in more modest surroundings in the Welsh capital back in 1994 when they played at Cardiff University and, later that same year, at the Astoria, which was a legendary nightclub on Queen Street. Principle songwriter Noel Gallagher also has personal ties to Wales. He is the father of three children, Anais, Donovan and Sonny, with his first child Anais being born to his ex-wife Meg Matthews. Anais, who works as a model and a photographer, is currently in a relationship with Welsh actor Callum Scott Howells, known for his role in It's A Sin. The couple have been together since autumn 2023. Perhaps Oasis' biggest tie with Wales is the fact that one of their members is actually Welsh. In 1999, original bassist and founding member Paul 'Guigsy' McGuigan left the band, along with guitarist Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs. The pair were replaced by English guitarist Gem Archer and another musician called Andy Bell, who had formerly founded a rock band called Ride. Bell, now 54, was born in Cardiff in 1970 and later moved to Oxford and then Sweden. Bell has confirmed that he will take to the stage with Oasis just a couple of miles from his birthplace when the Principality Stadium shows kick-off this summer's tour.
