The brothers performed 23 of their biggest songs for delighted fans at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.

But before they took to the stage, the audience were treated to sets by support acts Cast and The Verve’s Richard Ashcroft.

Richard, 53, performed a series of the bands hits, including Bittersweet Symphony.

The track – which was first released in 1997 – reached number two and went on to be described as “one of the defining songs of the Britpop era”, as well as being named in Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

However, this seemed to be lost on one female concert-goer, who was caught using the Shazam app to identify the song.

In a video posted to TikTok, a fellow music fan shared footage of the woman checking the track and captioned it: “Imagine not knowing the greatest song of all time.”

The clip angered a number of others, with one commenting: “Seriously! I couldn’t get a ticket because of these people.”

Another added: “‘And there’s real fans from the 90’s that couldn’t get tickets.”

A third wrote: “If you don’t know bittersweet symphony we can’t be friends”.

Meanwhile a fourth was equally annoyed, saying: “nah there’s no way i lost tickets to someone shazaming one of the most popular songs of the britpop era”.


Later, when the moment came for Noel and Liam to come out on stage, the brothers clasped hands together, proving their years-long feud was well and truly behind them.

The two-and-a-quarter hour set was packed with big moments, including a tribute to tragic Liverpool football star Diogo Jota, who died in a car crash on Thursday in Spain.

The Sun understands lifelong Manchester City fans Noel and Liam made a late request following his sudden death aged 28 for their team to add him to the visuals used during their 1994 hit Live Forever.
