Oasis full setlist 'revealed' weeks out from Croke Park gigs and days before world tour begins

Oasis fans have been given a taste of what to expect when the legendary Gallagher brothers take to the Croke Park stage next month for what look set to be the biggest Irish gigs of the summer.

The band will begin their world tour in Cardiff on Friday and those living close to the Principality Arena in the city have already heard murmurings of what to expect from the setlist.

Oasis have already arrived in Cardiff to put together the finishing touches and fans close by say they have heard the setlist in full. Earlier in the week, those close to the stadium heard Cigarettes and Alcohol blasting out of the stadium, reports The Mirror.

They were also treated to hits Some Might Say and F*****n' In The Bushes. According to one fan on Reddit, Oasis are set to play a lengthy 24-song setlist.

The user revealed the rehearsal setlist, which can give fans a clue as to what may appear at the live shows. They claimed the setlist kicks off with an intro of Fuckin' in the Bushes. then Hello, Acquiesce and Morning Glory, followed by Some Might Say.

Cigarettes and Alcohol is next as Fade Away, Supersonic, Roll With It and Bring It On Down follow. It is believed Noel will also take on Talk Tonight, Half the World Away and Little By Little.

Speculation suggests the set will then turn to D'you Know What I Mean?, Stand By Me, Cast No Shadow, Slide Away, Whatever, Live Forever and Rock 'n' Roll Star.

Noel will reportedly lead on The Masterplan and Don't Look Back in Anger, before the band come to a sensational end with Wonderwall and Champagne Supernova.

Fans have loved the thought of the rumoured setlist, yet shared their disappointment at hit Columbia not being on the bill.

One said: "Crazy there's no Columbia but little by little got my stoked." Another added: "No Columbia?" Someone else commented: "I need to convince one of them of Columbia's importance."

Oasis have already revealed the stage times for their shows in Cardiff as doors will open at 5pm before first support act Cast warm up the crowd at 6pm. Verve frontman and friend of the Gallaghers, Richard Ashcroft will then take to the stage at 7pm.

At 8.15pm this Friday, Oasis will make their long-awaited comeback and will play for just over two hours before they will end the set for a 10.30pm curfew.

Oasis reunited several months ago to make sure they can be on top form for the live shows. The first photos of the band leaving rehearsals in London were published in May.

They showed Noel with Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs, Gem Archer and Andy Bell, who will play guitars in the massive sold-out gigs, with Andy on bass. Liam, who was initially on vocal rest, then joined on June 3.

The band also has new members in keyboard player Christian Madden and drummer Joey Waronker on drums. He has played with Liam before on a tour, but never in Oasis.

Speaking about the shows, a source told The Mirror: "With a new lineup and it being such a huge first show, the boys will do some songs inside the venue too. Some tours would start with a smaller show or take a week or two to get into the groove again.

"But there is no time for that, and also Liam and Noel want every night to be massive. This is such a huge comeback show, and they are taking it very seriously. It all points to it being an incredible comeback tour."

Noel and Liam's reunion on Friday will be the first in public since the band split nearly two decades ago. Older brother Noel quit Oasis on August 28 2009, saying he "simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer", and the brothers had made negative comments about each other for more than a decade.

How to get Oasis tickets

Tickets for the Oasis reunion sold out across all venues due to huge demand when they went online earlier in the year. However, there are still several options available for fans trying to snag a last-minute spot.

Limited last-minute tickets can be bought from the official Ticketmaster resale site, where fans who can no longer go sell their seats, although these tend to go into and out of stock quickly.

Elsewhere, resale sites like Viagogo, Vivid Seats, StubHub and Twicketsare selling tickets for various dates, although fans should always bear in mind that many official sites, such as Ticketmaster and Live Nation, discourage the purchase of resale tickets.

Meanwhile, Seat Unique has some VIP tickets available offering a host of additional perks alongside access to the gig.
