When was the last time you experienced something that not only lived up to the hype but blew past it? Hard to recall, right? Im here to tell you thats exactly what happened on night two of Oasiss reunion at Londons Wembley Stadium.
When the reunion was first announced, it was easy to be cynical. A cash grab, maybe. But lazy? Not even close. Noel and Liam Gallagher clearly took this seriously. The band has never sounded tighterthree guitars, a keyboardist, a rhythm section firing on all cylinders, and Liam reportedly working with a vocal coach. It shows. He sounded massive.

And they looked cool as hell. Liam especially green parka, bucket hat, and that trademark stance. He paused mid-set to clarify: This isnt fucking velvet and its not a fucking beanie hat its jumbo cord and its a bucket hat. The crowd cheered.
An opening montage lit up the screen, capturing the media frenzy and online chatter surrounding the reunion. Throughout the show, there were flashes of 90s nostalgia some of it psychedelic but the stage itself was relatively stripped back. It didnt need anything more. The songs did all the heavy lifting.

More at the link, and it isn't paywalled.
I included the paragraph with Liam correcting the ignorant critic (from the UK's RW Telegraph) who'd mislabeled his hat that way reviewing their first Wembley show - here's the review via Yahoo so there's no paywall:
https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/articles/oasis-wembley-stadium-review-enough-222635321.html - because it was a great response to a dumb comment by a rock critic trying to be critical no matter how good the Oasis concerts are, and in the process revealing his own stupidity. There were other shots at Oasis and their fans in that Telegraph review, far and away the worst of all the many reviews I've read, but Liam would have needed a longer speech to respond to everything foolish the critic had written to belittle Oasis and their phenomenal reunion tour. And the band's performance and their fans' response was the best response to any clueless critics.
