Former Celtic captain and boss Lennon, 54, was spotted rocking a pair of shades and an Oasis T-shirt as he made his way to the home of Scottish rugby on Tuesday night.
Lenny was one of the lucky 70,000 punters to have snapped-up one of the gold dust tickets to see the last of the band's three sold out performances in Edinburgh this month.
The Hoops great has spoken before about how huge a fan of Oasis' he is - and has seen them SEVERAL times.
He also named his son after the band's brothers, Liam and Noel.
Lennon once said: "I've seen Oasis 13 or 14 times, including at Maine Road, which is one of the best gigs I've ever been at.
"I've met them a few times – Liam is a lot smarter than he makes out, and Noel just cracks you up every time he opens his mouth.
"I named my son after them as well. He's called Gallagher."
Given how huge a fan he is, it's little surprise that he headed along to Murrayfield to catch the big reunion tour in action.
And it's fair to say he was absolutely LOVING it.
Another fan in attendance captured a video of a thrilled Lenny singing and dancing along as Oasis belt out Cigarettes & Alcohol.

Lennon certainly seemed to be enjoying the gig more than one time he went to see Oasis in 1996.
He'd gone to that particular concert with Northern Ireland teammate Steve Lomas, who was the Manchester City captain at that time.
And things took a turn when the two players ended up getting PHYSICAL - with Lennon chucked out.
Lennon revealed in an interview: "The gig was amazing, as all Oasis gigs were in those days. Happy Mondays were on before them, so you can imagine the carnage.
"So, I'd gone with Steve Lomas who was the City captain at the time and a couple of other Leicester players and Irish players.
"With his bit of pull, Lomas got the group access backstage where they all got to schmooze with the band and other high-profile names.
"The only problem it seemed was that 'nobody was talking to Steve'.
"Steve gets a bit itchy when he's had a bit to drink and he starts looking at me in a funny way.
"So, I'm talking to 'Bonehead', who is the bassist with the band, and his Grandfather about Gaelic football, and I see out of the corner of my eye that Lomas is still looking at me.
"So I says, 'what's wrong with you?' Next thing, bang, he stuck the head on me."
Lomas' status as the Man City captain at the time spared him the same fate as Lennon and he was NOT thrown out of the venue.
Lennon's Dunfermline side have started the Championship season with four points from their openin two matches.
An opening day 0-0 draw at Morton was followed by a 2-0 win over Airdrieonians in their first home game on Saturday just gone.
Next up, it's a clash with fierce rivals Raith Rovers on Friday night.

Dublin ‘buzzing' ahead of Oasis' return to Ireland
Tens of thousands of fans have descended on the Irish capital for the first of two sold-out gigs at the country's largest stadium. The 90s Britpop superstars will perform to 80,000 people at Croke Park on Saturday and Sunday nights. After an 'in-demand' dynamic pricing model left a poor taste for some fans last year, ticket-holders will roll with it and enjoy the music in temperatures above 20C. Health officials advised revellers to wear their bucket hats, with high UV levels predicted amid warm and dry sunny spells in Dublin on Saturday. The band's first gig in the country since 2009, the Dublin leg of the reunion world tour will hold a special meaning for once-feuding brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher. The Mancunian brothers have spoken about their ties to Ireland through their Irish-born parents, Peggy and Thomas. Sarah and Neil Charlton travelled from Southampton to see the band, after a determined search for standing tickets saw them clinching access in Dublin. Mr Charlton said they have both been waiting a long time to see the band reunite – having seen Oasis multiple times before their extended hiatus. Mr Charlton added: 'It's just so nostalgic – all the songs and all the music from when we were growing up. 'When we first started seeing each other, we went to a gig and so it's always been a part of our lives together.' Oasis formed part of the romantic story for Lisa and Alan Roe too, who said their love of the band dates back to when they got married in the 1990s. Mr Roe said: 'Because the two of them are after getting back together after so many years, to be able to sell out a world tour the way they did – and their music going back to the late 80s and 90s. 'That brings an aura about in everybody and a buzz and the memories of growing up in Dublin with them – it's absolutely out of this world.' Having had to wait a long time for the reunion tour, Sinead Millea from Kilkenny – who previously saw the band in Limerick in 1996 – said: 'Maybe we're all going through a bit of a midlife crisis – I turned 50 this year, and look, Noel and Liam, they're in their 50s as well. 'And maybe things just dawned on them that life is too short and just, let's put grievances to bed. 'They seem to be getting on great, and it's fabulous. And at the end of the day, music transcends everything, and we're all here to enjoy a brilliant night and to share it with the people that mean the most. 'It's just amazing. The weather is fabulous and it's a brilliant venue.' The support acts for the Dublin dates are Richard Ashcroft from The Verve and Cast, formed by John Power after he left The La's. The setlist has crowd-pleasing hits such as Cigarettes And Alcohol and Wonderwall. Fans have also been treated to favourites including Acquiesce, Some Might Say and Morning Glory – before a Don't Look Back In Anger, Wonderwall and Champagne Supernova crescendo. Oasis announced their reunion tour in August last year, 16 years after their dramatic split in 2009, when Noel quit after a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris. The highly anticipated 41-date run has already seen the band play Cardiff, Manchester, London and Edinburgh before taking them half the world away to major cities, including in the US, Canada, Mexico, Australia and Japan.
