Noel Gallagher has been spotted enjoying himself in a pub ahead of Oasis' return to Ireland today.
Over 160,000 people who have bought tickets to the gig they never thought they'd see in an Oasis reunion are finally set to see the reunited brothers in Croke Park tonight (August 16) and on Sunday (August 17), with the lads landing on our shores earlier this week.
While guitarist Bonehead has been posting himself enjoying a sea swim and a few pints, Noel and Liam have kept quiet — but of course, in the age of social media, they were bound to be spotted somewhere, with Noel having been seen enjoying himself at Brady's Clockhouse pub in Maynooth on Friday evening.

Noel was mobbed by fans as he headed out of the pub and to a waiting car, and while he didn't pose for fans, he still felt the love as he waved to fans who cheered as he headed into his car.
While Noel was enjoying a pint in Kildare, fans in Dublin were treated to a champagne supernova in the sky, when a drone show saw the band's iconic logo light up the Drumcondra skies near Croke Park.

Liam Gallagher pays sweet tribute to Irish mammy at Croker

Oasis kicked off their two sold out gigs at Croke Park on Saturday and not without a sweet tribute to their beloved Irish mammy, Peggy. Packed buses and trains made their way to Dublin on Saturday as excitement culminated at the home of the GAA for the reunion of once-feuding brothers, Noel and Liam. The brothers, who fell out in 2009, reunited last month for a string of gigs as part of Live 25 and paid homage to their Mayo roots as they played to avid fans at Croke Park.

At the gig, Liam wondered: 'Anyone here from Mayo, Charlestown?' As with anything the musician said on the night, there were plenty of cheers, with the 52-year-old quick to remark: 'There's only about five people there, you can't all be f*cking from there.' @ Dublin vibes in the area. 🎥 therealnoelyg#oasis #upinthesite #OasisLive25 #noelgallagher #liamgallagher ♬ suono originale – Oasis UpInTheSite The band dedicated Stand By Me to Peggy, who was amongst concertgoers on the night – sure to have been beaming to see her sons back on stage together. Saturday saw the Gallagher brothers' reunite on stage on Irish soil for the first time in 16 years, with former band members Andy Bell, Gem Arche and Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs also back in action for the monumental moment. The Manchester lads last played Ireland in 2009, when they headlined at Slane Castle, in Co Meath, performing there to over 80,000 fans.

Gardaí are urging fans to follow their Oasis Concert Croke Park Traffic Managment Plan, and to take heed of signage in and around Croke Park, as roads will be closed all around the venue. Gardaí and stewards will be on hand to ensure everything runs smoothly for concert attendees. Doors opened at 5pm on Saturday, and will do so again on Sunday, with the show getting underway from 6pm with support acts Richard Ashcroft (formerly of The Verve) and Liverpudlian band Cast.
