Marvel Stadium, 31 October

Noel and Liam Gallagher take the stage to the strains of instrumental track F--kin’ in the Bushes . On the screen, the highlights from their reunion announcement: reactions, tweets, news headlines.

Then they open with “Hello”, the first track of their 1995 masterpiece (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? , with the Gary Glitter-sampled lyric “It’s good to be back” brought up in the mix.

The crowd at the front surges like a wave. Then they play Acquiesce : “Because we need each other / We believe in one another / And I know we’re going to uncover / What’s sleepin’ in our soul.” The boys have buried the hatchet.
