Liam and Noel Gallagher kicked off their long-awaited ‘Live ‘25’ tour dates with two nights at Principality Stadium in Cardiff last month, and have since made stops in Manchester, London and Edinburgh.

Over the weekend, the Britpop legends returned to Ireland for the first time since 2008, and videos shared by fans in attendance at the Croke Park gigs showed the interpreter signing for hearing-impaired fans.

Many were impressed that simultaneously, she was dancing enthusiastically, even nodding to Liam’s trademark swagger as she signed to ‘Morning Glory’.

Her high-energy effort drew massive praise from fans, with one on X/Twitter saying all the interpreters at the ‘Live ’25’ shows deserved “huge kudos for what they do,” and shared that when it got darker over the course of the evening, they used glow sticks so fans could still see.

During the first show at Croke Park, while performing ‘Stand By Me’ – which was previously dedicated to Susan Boyle – the Gallagher brothers dedicated the ‘Be Here Now’ hit to their mum, Peggy, who was in attendance.

Both Peggy and their dad, Thomas ‘Tommy’ Gallagher, were born in Ireland, and Liam went on to dedicate ‘Roll With It’ to the small town his mum hails from.

Before launching into ‘Some Might Say’, Liam also joked about his sobriety, telling fans: “I think I’m a Croke Park virgin! We haven’t played here before, have we? All I do know [is] this [is] the soberest I’ve been in Ireland since I was about four or five or something like that.”

After the gigs, footage emerged of fans without tickets gathered outside the stadium to listen to the show.

Following their two shows in Dublin, Oasis are now set to head across the Atlantic for their North American tour. Dates in Toronto, Chicago, East Rutherford, Pasadena and Mexico City will take them to the middle of September, when they head back for two final nights at Wembley.

Then, later in the year, they’ll play in South Korea, Japan, Australia, Argentina, Chile and Brazil.

NME gave Oasis’ first concert at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium a glowing five-star review, writing: “After a ‘90s heyday and an often maligned post-millennium era, this is Oasis redesigned for the 21st Century.”

“Playing before a pop-art-meets-psychedelia visual spectacular that never distracts but will look sick on a phone, they seem the quintessential stadium band playing the greatest hits of greatest hits,” it added.

Elsewhere, a house in Cornwall where Oasis recorded their landmark 1994 debut album ‘Definitely Maybe’ has been put up for sale.
