An American influencer has left people shocked after her scathing review of Oasis' hometown gig in Manchester went viral.
Noel and Liam Gallagher were finally reunited on stage earlier this month, heading to Cardiff for their opening performance, where one unfortunate audience member was spotted using Shazam for a tune many consider to be the UK's national anthem.
While some people were forced to use underhanded methods to see last week's performances at Heaton Park, others were lucky enough to get tickets, despite all the difficulties associated with Ticketmaster when they first went on sale.
After thousands of Oasis fans missed out, their anger was no doubt increased tenfold after seeing American TikTok star Alexis Nido-Russo's video, where she seemingly had nothing positive to say about the band, their fans or the wonderful city of Manchester.

Posting on the platform, she said: "I was thinking I was going to a nice concert. It was a great show but it was the dirtiest concert I have ever been to. I have never seen a more concentrated group of drunkenness."
Her rant continued: "You were lucky if you found one or two people that had not been over-served."
"It was also the filthiest concert I've ever been to," the woman fumed. "After I had a drink I was looking for a trash can to throw it into because I didn't want to be like the riff raff that was just throwing everything on the floor.
"I've never seen a dirtier place, I looked for a trash can, I couldn't find one. Finally I did find a cluster of four trash cans. There were 80,000 people at this concert, I only saw a cluster of four trash cans the entire time I was there."

"Overall, my review of Manchester was the people - incredible. I love the people of Manchester, you can't find a friendlier bunch of people."
However, she wasn't able to stay positive for long, as she added: "Probably because they are all drunk. There's not a lot to do in Manchester and I would probably never go back."
Her video on TikTok was captioned: "I also got blasted by a drink because the lads were losing their minds over Oasis and launching drinks into the air like wild animals..."
Of course, the excitement surrounding the gigs meant that it was always going to be rowdy, especially in Manchester, and it seems as if she turned up expecting Coachella.

She's lucky that the weather was good for once, as the rain and mud usually associated with outdoor concerts in the UK might have been too much for her.
But, to play devil's advocate for just a moment, launching your expensive drinks in the air at any opportunity is still behaviour that baffles me, and getting so drunk that you forget the gig does surely defeat the point of going.
Still, she should have known what she was getting into and maybe next time, she should save the tickets for more genuine Oasis fans? Just a thought.
