Well well well, look whoโs been makinโ noise in the valleys! ๐ As the build-up to the massive Oasis reunion gigs at Cardiffโs Principality Stadium reaches fever pitch, fans hanging around the stadium have been treated to a little sneak peek โ and itโs sounding biblical, butt. ๐๐ฅ
Yep, the soundchecks are in full swing, and letโs just say the walls of the stadium (and probably every pub within a 2-mile radius) have been echoing with some very familiar tunes. Snippets of iconic bangers have been heard drifting through the air, giving us a tasty preview of what Liam, Noel (?!), and the lads might unleash on the big night(s). ๐ถ๐ป
Hereโs what fans claim to have heard belting out of the stadium so far:
๐ Potential Oasis Cardiff Setlist (Based on Soundcheck Spottings):
- Rock ‘n’ Roll Star ๐ โ A thunderous opener? Wouldnโt be surprised!
- Morning Glory ๐ โ That iconic riff shook the tarmac.
- Cigarettes & Alcohol ๐ฌ๐บ โ Essential, innit.
- Roll With It ๐ข โ Bit of Britpop bounce.
- Some Might Say ๐ฏ๏ธ โ Heard loud and clear.
- Live Forever ๐ซ โ People were crying and they werenโt even inside yet.
- Supersonic ๐ โ That bassline? Unmistakable.
- Acquiesce ๐ โ WE NEED EACH OTHER!
- Little by Little ๐ง๏ธ โ Noelโs vocal tones drifting into the Cardiff dusk.
- Donโt Go Away ๐ โ A surprise? One fan swears it was played during rehearsal!
- The Masterplan ๐ฉ โ Could it actually make the cut?!
- Champagne Supernova ๐พ๐ โ Was heard in FULL. Cue lighters in the sky.
- Donโt Look Back in Anger ๐๏ธ โ Crowd already singing it from outside, fair play.
- Wonderwall ๐งฑ โ Of course itโs on there. You knew it was.
๐ง Heard or Hallucinated?
Naturally, thereโs always a bit of confusion when it comes to soundchecks. Some of it could be piped-in playback, some could be live warmups from the crew or even techs. But multiple fans filmed and Shazamโd what they heard โ and the clips are doing the rounds on X (Twitter), TikTok, and WhatsApp like wildfire. ๐ฅ
One fan posted:
โMate, โChampagne Supernovaโ was echoing through the car park. Felt like 1996 again. I was tamping I couldnโt get in!โ ๐
Another swore he heard Liam doing underwater farts in the pool, but thatโs probably a different post, innit? ๐ซง๐
๐๏ธ Are You Ready, Cardiff?
With this potential setlist teasing the return of peak Oasis, expectations are sky-high. If this is even half of what we get on the night, itโs going to be one for the history books, mun.
So whether you’re inside the stadium or singing from the streets, get yer bucket hats ready, warm up those vocal cords, and prepare for a proper Britpop blowout. ๐ชฉ๐ค๐ด
