Liam Gallagher makes 'promise' to fans as Oasis kick off Wembley stadium gigs
Liam Gallagher made a 'promise' to Oasis fans at the band's Wembley stadium gig this weekend.
Oasis is currently in the middle of its long-awaited tour, with the band having already performed at Manchester's Heaton Park as well as Cardiff's Principality Stadium.
This weekend, the brothers kicked off the Wembley segment of the tour, where they'll perform for five nights before heading to Edinburgh and then Dublin.
The band will then head overseas before returning for two more London dates in September.

During Friday's show at Wembley, Liam made a promise to fans, explaining that 'every time' he 'opens his mouth', he ends up getting into bother.
He told crowds: "Every time I open my mouth these days I seem to get myself in f***ing trouble. So I’m just gonna sing."
According to the Manchester Evening News, he did take a couple of breaks to make some comments to the audience, and at one point told some fans off for getting into a fight.
"Sort it out. Fighting at this f***ing time of the day? At least wait until it gets dark," he said.
Elsewhere in the gig, an image of Ozzy Osbourne was shown on screen at the end of the song Live Forever, with Liam dedicating Rock ‘n’ Roll Star to the late star.
When tickets first came on sale, fans scrambled to secure a spot at the reunion gigs. And it seems those who missed out are still desperate to watch the band perform, after a viral clip of fans trying to scale a fence at Heaton Park has been doing the rounds since the Manchester shows.
Security expert Will Geddes explained the dangers behind getting in without a ticket, though he highlighted that in the UK, 'there are zero consequences' with the act.
He added: "That's one of the biggest concerns. You're pretty much free to do as you please once you're through security," Geddes said of open air venues, such as Heaton Park.
According to the security specialist with over 30 years of experience, trespass laws in this country aren't as strict as you'd think.
He said that while 'you can use security to eject someone' from an event, an open air park can pose a challenge to those employed to keep the peace.
"They're just brought in for the event, and they will be brought in by the promoters," Geddes added.
He did mention the event's duty to ensure safety espeically with Martyn's Law, which was officially introduced this year as the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025 following the death of Martyn Hett, a victim of the Manchester Arena bombing.
It states that venues and events must 'assess their vulnerability to terrorism' and endure they have security measures in place to deal with these.
