Oasis at Heaton Park day two LIVE: Gallagher brothers booed again at reunion
Oasis are kicking off their second night at Manchester's Heaton Park today (July 12) after their first sold-out show attracted boos from the packed out audience on Friday. Noel and Liam Gallagher have put their feud behind them to reunite for a 2025 tour, leaving fans across the world stunned.
With a setlist comprised of songs including Rock and Roll Star, Don't Look Back in Anger and Slide Away, the band are no less impressive for having been away so long.
Liam addressed the crowd last night only to be cut off by jeers, and had a brutal three-word response to being booed. The drama turned out to be football related, as Liam joked with the crowd: “I’d like to dedicate this [song] to the greatest manager of all time, Mr Pep Guardiola.”
The mention of the Manchester City boss sparked outrage with some sections of the crowd – presumably Manchester United supporters – with Liam responding: “Who you f***ing booing, who you f***ing booing?” – earning more boos and laughter from the audience.
The brothers emerged on stage hand-in-hand for their victorious return to Heaton Park, seemingly having put their long-lasting feud behind them.
But cops made a number of arrests last night, with six fans detained. Greater Manchester Police said though the gig went off mainly without incident, six individuals were arrested for alleged offences ranging from drunk and disorderly conduct to suspicion of fraud and intent to supply cannabis.
Their ages span from 20 to 55, and as of last night they were being held in custody. Officers using drone technology also responded to several violations of air space restrictions from 11am to 11:59pm during the performance.
