Imagine rock ’n’ roll karma aligning just right—Oasis is back together for the first time in 16 years, and already, the cosmic forces are stirring up a Britpop brouhaha. With brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher taking the stage in Cardiff, a fan’s cheeky plan to “Shazam” every song at their July gig has set off a tidal wave of outrage among diehard Britpop devotees. Could Mercury in Leo be shining a spotlight on generational clashes and the eternal sibling drama that fuels the Gallaghers’ legendary reunion? While some grumble about clueless concertgoers missing the ‘Bitter Sweet Symphony’ memo, others are basking in that rare harmony between the brothers—a vibe so potent it might just rewrite the stars.

An Oasis ticket holder has grand plans for upsetting ‘proper fans’ when he watches the rock band play live at the end of July.

Fronted by brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher, the Manchester-born ‘Slide Away’ and ‘Wonderwall’ behemoths got the band back together for the first time in 16 years this week, with two consecutive nights playing Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.

Naturally, the reunion tour has already proven to be a concoction of generational awareness, with supporting artist Richard Ashcroft‘s biggest tune ‘Bitter Sweet Symphony’ (originally performed by his band The Verve) going straight over the head of somebody in the crowd.

Posting on social media, X user Tom Nestor revealed how he’d been inspired by this lack of Britpop knowledge, so much so that he was ready to take it a level further just to get under people’s skin.

“Saw a video of a girl Shazamming ‘Bitter Sweet Symphony’,” began his tweet, “and I’ve decided as a wind up I’m gonna Shazam every song when I see Oasis at the end of the month just to wind the old men up.”

Shazam, in case you’ve never used it, is a super handy music identification app.

When word of the girl’s Shazam shocker first reached the ears of the internet, plenty of appalled responders turned up to have a pop.

“This is who I lost my tickets for,” wrote one disappointed Oasis fan.

“How are you going to an Oasis gig not knowing ‘Bitter Sweet Symphony’?” asked somebody else, while a third argued: “Actually disgusted that real fans of The Verve and Oasis weren’t able to get tickets and you have people like this in the crowd that are Shazaming their songs.”

Even Jedward the X Factor icons weighed in on it, sharing: “If you don’t know Bitter Sweet Symphony we can’t be friends.”

Meanwhile, a body language expert has told The Mirror that one sweet gesture between the Gallaghers showed how they’re finally at peace with one another.

Referring to how Liam and Noel triumphantly raised their hands together in front of the Cardiff crowd, Judi James explained: “Analysis of the ritual is fascinating. It’s Liam who has grabbed Noel’s wrist to raise their arms, suggesting he’s the one wanting to push the idea that they’re reunited for real.

“He also places a confident and controlling hand onto Noel’s shoulder, raising his maracas in the air in what looks like a V sign to signal victory.”

The expert also discussed a moment where Noel soaked in the atmosphere whilst performing their beloved tune ‘Half the World Away’, which was famously the opening theme song for The Royle Family.

“He looks like a man holding his breath like the rest of the fans in the hope that the sibling bonds hold firm this time and they get through their tour in a state of (almost) total harmony,” she said.

The band’s brief tribute to the late Diogo Jota was also a key moment in their comeback concert – illuminating their backing screens with his image in a Liverpool FC shirt during ‘Live Forever’.
