Last night, Oasis rocked the Croke Park stage last night as part of their much talked about reunion tour.
The Gallaghers and co returned to perform in front of 80,000 fans at a sold out Croke Park, with Liam Gallagher telling the crowd that "It's good to be back" and "We need each other", as they opened up with Hello.
Greeting the fans, Liam Gallagher shouted: "Oasis vibes in the area. Dublin vibes in the area", and "We missed you, you lunatics!".
"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", he then added.
As expected with it being a show on Irish soil, Oasis did not let the evening pass without tipping a hat to their Irish heritage, especially paying homage to their beloved mother Peggy.
Noel and Liam's mother Peggy, who was in the crowd, originally hails from Charlestown in Co Mayo, and Oasis dedicated their live performance of 'Roll With It' to her. They also dedicated Stand By Me to Peggy, blowing kisses towards her as she sat in the upper tear.
"Is there anyone here from Mayo, Charlestown?" Liam added: "You're not all from there, there's only around five f****** people from there".
Frontman Liam Gallagher joked as Oasis signed off: "Right, Dublin, you've been the b*******. I have to go to bed like a little princess. Thanks for putting up with us. I know we're hard work", as Oasis finished things off with Champagne Supernova, following an encore of Don't Look Back In Anger, The Masterplan, and Wonderwall.
Prior to their live performance, Oasis' show was opened up by Richard Ashcroft, who stunned the audience by downing pint of Guinness, before closing out with classic The Verve hit, Bitter Sweet Symphony.
Oasis will be back to do it all again in Croker again tonight, in the second of two nights as part of the tour.
Last night was also not the first time that Oasis have used Stand By Me to pay tribute to someone, having used the track to honour former Britain's Got Talent contestant Susan Boyle. Find out more on this here.
