Liam Gallagher makes cheeky quip about THAT dynamic ticket pricing fiasco during Oasis’ reunion tour opening night – after fans shelled out hundreds to attend

Liam Gallagher made a very cheeky remark to the crowds at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium over the dynamic ticket pricing furore which caused outrage last summer. 

Tens of thousands of fans descended upon the Welsh capital on Friday to watch Liam and Noel Gallagher at last reunite, 16 years after a feud in Paris tore Oasis apart. 

Rumours began to swirl about a possible reunion last summer, with the Oasis Live ’25 tour being announced a short time later, leaving scores of supporters in a frenzy. 

But when tickets were at last released, fans were left appalled as £148 standard prices sky-rocketed to more than £350, with many unable to secure a seat at one of the gigs.

The ordeal in fact caused such controversy that it prompted a UK watchdog to investigate the use of dynamic ticket pricing. 

And taking to the stage on Friday evening, Liam – who has previously taunted fans over the fiasco – once again joked with the 75,000 supporters who had flocked to see him and his brother.

Taking time away from the set list, the 52-year-old asked: ‘You’re having a good time, yeah?’

Before cheekily adding: ‘Is it worth the £40,000 you paid for the ticket?’

Liam had previously hit back at criticism over the dynamic pricing scandal during a rant on X last year.

The rock n roll star told a supporter to ‘SHUTUP’ in a comment after the fan quipped: ‘Didn’t expect them to rip fans off as much as they have done. It’s genuinely a shame.’

When asked whether he had any spare tickets, Liam hit back: ‘S*** loads but there really expensive 100 thousand pounds Kneeling only.’ 

After thousands of supporters were left without a ticket, Oasis later added dates to the tour due to high demand. 

And once again, with the beginning of the reunion just weeks away, the band also offered tickets to loyal members of their official supporters club via exclusive emails. 

Anticipation in the Welsh capital had been building all week ahead of Friday evening’s ‘momentous’ return of one of the iconic British bands. 

Cardiff’s streets were lined with Oasis supporters from all corners of the continent counting down the minutes to Liam and Noel’s arrival. 

And the big moment came shortly after 8pm, with the Manchester-born brothers waltzing onto stage arm-in-arm sending the crowd wild. 

Liam and Noel stopped to gaze at the supporters who had waited years for the moment, holding hands in a moment which seemingly proved they’ve put their differences aside.

‘Manchester vibes in the arena’, Liam announced with his iconic maracas in-hand before beginning the set with Hello, singing the apt lyrics: ‘It’s good to be back.’

Continuing with some of their biggest hits, Oasis then went into Acquiesce before transitioning into the fan-favourite 1995 tune Morning Glory. 

‘Yes beautiful people! It’s been too long,’ Liam announced.  

He then ordered the crowd to ‘turn around and bounce’ ahead of Cigarettes and Alcohol.

Later, Noel appeared emotional as he performed Half The World Away and even stopped singing for a few bars at one point.

They closed the show with their smash hits Wonderwall and Champagne Supernova as the crowds descended into tears over the incredible show. 

There was also a heartwarming moment as the band paid to tribute to Liverpool footballer Diogo Jota, who tragically passed away in a car accident earlier this week. 

While belting out the lyrics of the iconic Live Forever, a photo displayed on the big screen of the much-loved Portuguese star wearing his number 20 Liverpool shirt. 

Jota died at the age of just 28 along with his brother Andre Silva. Diogo had celebrated his wedding days earlier. 

The evening brought a host of celebrities to the Welsh capital for what has been described as a ‘momentous’ occasion. 

Danny Dyer was pictured bounding through the streets of the city along with a pal shortly after 7pm, while Gavin and Stacey star Rob Brydon was seen taking in the atmosphere with his family. 

Vernon Kay was also in attendance, though his wife Tess Daly was nowhere to be seen.

Before Oasis took to the stage, Richard Ashcroft was their support for the night, telling the crowd: ‘So glad to be here with the greatest rock ‘n’ roll band. When I heard Oasis were reforming I thought I was in it!’ 

Richard’s former band The Verve toured with Oasis back in the early days, and Noel was spotted in the crowd ahead of his own performance to catch some of Richard’s set.

Noel’s ex-wife Meg Mathews and daughter Anais were in the crowd to support him.

A source told The Mirror: ‘After posting about her ex-husband for weeks, Meg Mathews had a prime seat for watching the band. 

‘She was in great spirits before the set, watching Richard Ashcroft with pals.’

Liverpudlian indie rock band Cast also paid an emotional tribute to Diogo Jota as they kicked off the Cardiff show.

Frontman John Power also took a moment to pay tribute Diogo as he dedicated their song Walkaway to the star after his death.

In an emotional moment, he said: ‘This is Walkaway. This one is for Diogo Jota. Take it easy brother.’

The Portuguese international and his brother were driving  a Lamborghini Huracan when a tyre blew out while overtaking another vehicle on the A-52 at Cernadilla near Zamora – just ten miles over the border from Portugal.

The £180,000 car is said to have rolled and burst into flames, with emergency services unable to save the footballing duo. No other vehicles were involved, police have said. 

The siblings were heading to Santander to catch a ferry to Britain after Diogo was advised not to fly following lung surgery, it was reported in his home country.

Jota’s untimely death sent shockwaves through the footballing world and fans have gathered in their hundreds to lay and pay tribute to the 28-year-old.

The tragedy came just days after Jota married his new wife Rute Cardoso – who he shares three young children with – on June 22.

After 15 years, Liam and Noel finally reunite for 41 shows across Europe and the 900,000 fans who have eagerly snapped up tickets will not be disappointed with the set list which is crammed with the nineties band’s classics.

The streets of Cardiff were ‘electric’ ahead Oasis’s opening night with Wonderwall blasting from work vans while superfans are queuing up to purchase bucket hats and T-shirts.
