Meet the Oasis fans attending tonight's Murrayfield show
Tonight will be their first performance in Scotland since the band split back in 2009.
From Asia to Italy, these dedicated fans have descended on the Edinburgh soil to witness the 'dream-come-true' shows.
Hangul Lee, who has declared herself to be Oasis' biggest fan, travelled from South Korea to watch the gig tonight.
The 36-year-old said: 'I've wanted to see a reunion concert since 2009.
'I am feeling both nervous and excited for the show. I might cry when they come onto the stage.'
She went on to say that she'd love to hear the song Whatever live.
She added: 'The lyrics are very hopeful.'

She said: 'I'm a huge fan and I have been since I was around 12 years old.
'This has been a lifelong dream of mine to see Oasis live, I never thought it was going to happen.
'I've never been to Edinburgh before, so it was an occasion to see the city and we figured Edinburgh would not be as crowded as London or Manchester. So, we managed to get tickets for here, but we would have gone anywhere.
'I'm really excited for the show and to hear the set list. It's going to be an amazing day.'
Giulia Manni (Image: Newsquest) Florian Guidi, 33, travelled from the French island of Corsica. This is his first time in Scotland.
He said: 'I'm so happy to be at this gig, I love Oasis and never thought I would get to see them live. It's a dream.
'I hope to hear Liver Forever, Supersonic, I want to hear them all.'

Florian Guidi (Image: Newsquest) Edison Worth, 16, embarked on a long journey to see the band, sparing no expense.
He said: 'I travelled from Brighton today; it was a 12-hour drive.
'This is my first time seeing Oasis. It was £400 a ticket for standing.'
Edison Worth (Image: Newsquest) For Cian Fitzgerald, 45, these Edinburgh gigs are all about nostalgia.
He said: 'I've seen Oasis multiple times in the 90s.
'I've heard from people that have already seen them on this tour that the atmosphere is brilliant, and everyone has had a great time, so hoping for the same.'
Though Cian lives and works in the capital, this will be his first concert at the famous stadium.
He said: 'This is my first gig at Murrayfield, I think it will be brilliant, and the atmosphere is cracking. Everyone has seen the set list and it's blinding.'

Oasis at Murrayfield - community, chaos and itchy wrists
"I waited in the queue for seven hours, had two tickets in my basket, and it booted me out," he laments. He eventually managed to score a couple on the resale market, setting him back £520. He's meeting his mate for a few pints before getting a bus up but he's playing it smart: "You want to remember it, slow and steady is the key." It's a scene which is surely playing out across the central belt this weekend as the Gallagher brothers return to Scotland for the first time in 16 years. A beer garden off George Square is packed with parkas, three stripes and sunglasses as the faithful prepare to head to Queen Street and on to Edinburgh. Read More: The capital witnessed something not dissimilar last summer when Taylor Swift brought her Eras Tour to Scotland, the cobbled streets clacking with cowboy boots and the sandstone contrasting with pinks, reds and golds. When it comes to Oasis there's not really an aesthetic era to crib from, attendees dressed more uniformly in sports casual wear, parkas and the aforementioned bucket hats. Still though the streets around Haymarket are abuzz, 'Supersonic' blasting from a street stall and the local Tesco running decidedly short on beer. Empty beer boxes in a Tesco near to Murrayfield (Image: Newsquest) Oasis fans outside Murrayfield (Image: Gordon Terris) Despite the stereotypes, and the warnings from City of Edinburgh Council, there's a real demographic mix here, male and female, young and old - often together for what is clearly a family moment. As opening act Cast will remark: "This is a gathering. This is a happening. And it is happening." Second support Richard Ashcroft says it's bringing "positive vibes around the country", his mood helped with a couple of pints down at Portobello beach earlier that day. The former Verve frontman's voice remains an incredible instrument, and the first mass singalongs of the night greet 'Drugs Don't Work' and 'Bittersweet Symphony', but there's only one act for which we've all gathered to see. Oasis are due on stage at 8.15pm but those of us at the educational angle witness their arrival a few minutes before as black Land Rovers pull up to the side of the stage. Liam leaps out of one, fist-pumping to those in the sightline, then Noel emerges and gives his brother what appears to be a genuinely affectionate slap on the back. In their 90s heyday Oasis were famously chaotic but tonight they're a well-oiled machine. "We've missed you too," Liam says after an opening which sends 70,000 into delirium. Oasis fans at Murrayfield (Image: Gordon Terris) Fawning over the crowd isn't really Oasis' style but there are little nods, Noel intoning "go on yersel, Scotland" before handing over to the crowd for the chorus of 'Don't Look Back In Anger' while Liam changes the lyrics of 'Bring It Down' to: "You're the underclass/but you don't care/because you drink Buckfast". While there were fears of fistfights and debauchery - and that's just on stage - the feeling in the crowd is one of community. When Liam instructs us to 'do the Poznań' before 'Cigarettes & Alcohol' one man is confused by the crowd turning their backs to the action. "What are we doing?" he asks. "Put your arms around me, then we jump." explains the guy beside him. There's not much in the way of patter from the band, and some of it is frankly baffling. "D'you ever get itchy wrists?" Liam asks at one point, rubbing his together. "It's a sign of biblicalness." Still, when the singer dedicates 'Live Forever' to "all the people who didn't make it through to see us get back together" there are genuine tears from a guy to my right, while 'Slide Away' brings at least one marriage proposal. "This is the last one," he says before 'Champagne Supernova'. "Thanks for sticking with us all these years, I imagine we're a nightmare to support." Fireworks ring out as the crowd shuffles out into the night and I find myself on a tram to Ingliston crammed in with a family of four. One of their number has a crutch and watched the show from the wheelchair they've managed to get into the packed carriage. The father asks me which stop is Ingliston. I tell him it's the one before the airport and that I can alert them when I'm getting off. "Thanks son," he says. "They'll no believe me, you see, I can never be right." His teenage daughter rolls her eyes beneath her bucket hut.
