It's my fourth time seeing them, but it still feels as great as the first. Has anyone else heard talk of an after show at Spring and Airbrake?

Put simply, the greatest night of my life thus far.
Yes, it was that good, but I'm planning to post a proper review tommorow after I've recovered from my front row / mosh - inflicted wounds and blissful battlescars, night y'all

I was there last night (29th) and it was the best night of my life.
I've seen them three times - but they blew me away. . . EVERYONE IN THE ARENA WAS UP FOR IT.

With this being my first time seeing Oasis all I can say is that it was unspeakably brilliant, surpassing three years of expectations and leaving them for dead. The Setlist was identical to that of recent shows, but nothing could have put a dent in what was the best gig I’ve ever been to. The band were on top form, and as well as playing expertly, they looked like they were having a good time doing so, which made the gig even more of an awe-inspiring sonic experience. Liam sounded fantastic despite being drowned out a lot of the time by the crowd who were also incredible, echoing every word no matter if it was a new song or one from the “bottomless pit of classics” as well described in the awesome tour program. The banter was also aplenty, although a lot of the time the accents rendered it indecipherable, nonetheless it showed that the band was putting in a bit of effort, as opposed to the Wembley gig where the band and audience both seemed a tad half-arsed. Being in the front row was a truly exceptional experience. The atmosphere was fucking unbeatable despite having to fight to stay alive during the likes of Fuckin’ In The Bushes, which stirred the crowd into an almost instinctive frenzy. An onslaught of rockers Lyla, The Shock of the Lightning and Cigarettes and Alcohol left just about everyone gasping for dear life, so an elegant rendition of The Masterplan granted everyone a moment to regain energy. Later highlights included an astonishing performance of Slide Away, Noel’s anthemic cries of “Take me there! Take me there!” at the end particularly stood out. I’m Outta Time was an amazing moment of unification were everyone in the crowd became one in a touching moment of greatness. Just like the Electric Proms Noel oddly introduced Falling Down before launching into Don’t Look Back In Anger, regardless, both were heart-wrenchingly brilliant as everyone sang arm-in-arm. Curiously as the intro to Champagne Supernova trickled in, Liam announced “Live Forever”, my heart started racing as I knew of it’s absence this tour, before they continued with Supernova with no further mention of Live Forever, it was the euphoric pinnacle of the night, before I Am The Walrus capped it off in style. So relieved I’ve got Slane tickets, so I’m guaranteed another Oasis gig before they hibernate for another few years, but I’m gutted it can’t come any sooner, it feels like going back to school after Christmas and your next holidays not being for 3 or 4 months

the full gig of 29.10 is available on dig out your soul tour thread Anyone know if a recording for the 30th has surfaced yet? I was there last night and like all above have said, it was again awesome. Crowd were really, really up for it. Was disappointed not to get standing tickets but got a great spec with my seats (right at the front, stage level, Gems side) so couldnt complain. Liam indulged in what seemed like more than usual between song banter although I couldnt make a lot of it out so would love to hear a full-gig recording. Near the end he actually asked "Wheres a good place to go out in Belfast on a Friday night?", think hes losing track of what day it is And the first tambourine went into the crowd after RNRS which was very early. Again, like everyone has commented on the Wednesday gig, EVERYONE sang along to EVERY song which was great to hear. The WOOOs in IATW were great and Noel even left part of TIOBI to the crowd to sing alone because it was so loud. TBWTL was monumental, Lyla sounded a lot better than usual, Masterplan was beautiful, Supersonic was great - but the encore just blew me away. The stripped back DLBIA was again immense, FD sounded great, CS was rocking, and I was surprised at how well everyone reacted to IATW which was brilliant and the outro was the longest I've ever heard it which seemed like a sign of appreciation by the band. Great night and best I've ever seen them.

Did anyone else near the front on Wednesday see the prick throw a coin at Liam?

I was there both nights, and they were great. the second night edged it, and Liam was in top form with stage banter. on the otherhand, noel stormed off the stage on the wed night, didnt thank the crowd, and he didnt even bother to say hello last night. that is irritating. his performance was great, but disinterested as hell. Liam gave it stacks, Chris is an animal and Gem was outstanding. Andy did his job very well, but not much motion from the boy.
Setlist was good, but maybe needed a rockier edge in the middle
I think this is the best they have played in Northern Ireland for sure, having to been to all of them since they started coming here.

I was there last night and, while I've been a fan for about a decade or so now, it was my first Oasis concert and I have to say that I was completely blown away, the only thing that could beat it maybe is seeing U2 in Dublin but it's a close one. Liam was on top form throughout I thought, was funny to hear him dedicate Lyla to 'all the girls who can't handle their lager so feel they have to throw it at the band' He dedicated Slide Away to all the chicks too, and asked if there were any chicks in Belfast before proceeding to start couting them lol, 'One ... two ... three ...' Having watched the Wembley Arena broadcast I was a tad concerned about what his voice would be like but I was really impressed by how powerful he sounded, the older songs were just amazing, especially Rock 'n' Roll Star, is true what people say I think about bootlegs giving you the wrong idea about how he sounds live cos I bet if you asked the audience there last night if they thought he sounded good you'd get a resounding yes from the vast majority ... Being honest I was disappointed with Noel's attitude, was very perfunctory to me and said literally not one word to the crowd all night, just going through the motions as far as I could tell, although Don't Look Back In Anger and The Masterplan were massive highlights for me obviously, I thought the crowd where I was didn't know the latter quite as well as I thought they would, but anyways, fantastic night, fantastic atmosphere, now where can I get a ticket for Slane...

Noel's attitude stank,as a massive fan i was really disapointed...but Liam and the gig itself made up for it. I think they need to play about with the set a bit also....roll on slane!! cheer up noel!!! :-)
PS: Is this true Noel said on teh radio this morning they would have to consider coming back to belafst after someone threw a coin at them? Seen it on another forum earlier...

Loved the gig, very surprised that Liam actually sounded better than The Electric Proms.. Don't Look Back In Anger was the highlight of the night, the crowd were fantastic singing along..
BTW, ive some seriously high quality video of about half the tunes (unfortunately shakey hand / bumped into etc) but captures the moment, i'll try and tube em over the weekend.
