Your support makes all the difference.Liam Gallagher took to the stage to perform some classic Oasis hits for the One Love Manchester concert.
Appearing at Old Trafford Cricket Ground, the former Oasis frontman caused a frenzy as he strolled onto the stage to perform some of the band's classic hits, opening with 'Rock and Roll Star'.
The former Oasis frontman had previously said he would not be able to attend the concert.
Yet rumours were sparked in-part after Black Eyed Peas singer Taboo tweeted a list of performers at the event and tagged Oasis. He quickly apologised and said that an error had been made.
Liam Gallagher, who has hinted recently hinted that he would be interested in reuniting with his brother, responded to the rumours himself earlier this week.
Speaking to BBC Radio One he said vaguely: “Mate, I don’t think so. I mean, I’m up for it but I think we’re booked for a gig somewhere.”
Asked if a reunion was a possibility at all he added: “No, it ain’t. Everyone knows I love our kid. He doesn’t speak to me, we don’t speak to each other.
I’ll speak to him some day. It’s all very sad, but we’ll get over it… I guess it musn’t be nice for my mum… If Oasis ever got back together… if they do, they do. If they don’t, they don’t.
“A lot of people go, ‘Oh, leave it in the past, you were great then’. Mate, if we ever got back together, it would be happening. There’d be no dodgey gigs, it’d be bang on. So there is unfinished business there, but we’ll see what happens. In the meantime, we’re two little solo boys doing our little things.”
