Oasis praised after 'class' tribute to Diogo Jota during first gig since reunion

There was plenty good to say about the Oasis reunion, and their tribute to Diogo Jota was particularly classy

Oasis are back together on the stage and judging by the reactions from those fortunate first gig-goers they haven't lost a bit of their magic.

It's been called 'the rock reunion to end them all', a 'supersonic reunion for a new generation' and 'the best Oasis have been since 96 - some might say better'.

So it sounds like things went very well indeed for Noel and Liam Gallagher, along with Bonehead, Gem Archer, Andy Bell, Joey Waronker and everyone else who worked to bring the band back to the stage.

It bodes well for everyone else who bought a ticket to see Oasis on their reunion tour, but one particular aspect of their first show had plenty of people saying how 'class' the band were.

Oasis performed their song 'Live Forever' and dedicated it to the memory of Liverpool footballer Diogo Jota, who died along with his brother in a car crash this week.

Folks said it was an 'absolutely outstanding' gesture to make and showed that the reunion tour was a 'class act'.

Jota and his brother Andre were driving in Spain when their car suffered a suspected tyre blow out which sent them off the road, with the vehicle then catching fire.

Both men died in the crash and there have been plenty of tributes paid to their memory from across the sporting world and beyond.

Wimbledon rules on the dress code were tweaked so tennis players could wear a black ribbon on their sleeve to pay tribute, with Portuguese tennis player Francisco Cabral doing so.

Meanwhile, Record reports that Liverpool will pay the remaining two years of Diogo Jota's contract to his family. He had just recently married long-term partner Rute Cardoso and the couple had three children together.

The Oasis tribute was one of many to the memory of Jota as part of their highly successful first reunion gig.

The Gallagher brothers stepped onto the stage at Cardiff's Principality Stadium for the first show of their reunion tour as fans were greeted with a montage of headlines that had teased the return of Oasis.

Liam Gallagher greeted a jubilant crowd in the band's first performance since their dramatic split in 2009 by saying: "Hello people, it’s been too long."

At the end of the gig, the band thanked fans for 'putting up with us over the years' as they admitted things had been 'difficult'.

Oasis have another gig in Cardiff tonight (5 July) before heading for Manchester, with stops in London and Edinburgh before they leave the UK for Dublin and then take their tour worldwide.
