OASIS ticket-holders who snapped up prestigious reunion tour places have been gloating they “only know Wonderwall” – much to the anger of die-hard Britpop fans.
Those who plumped to attend the domestic leg of Oasis Live 25 on a whim – or with little knowledge about the Manchester lads’ back-catalogue – have been cruelly crowing about their success.

It came after Oasis was forced to issue a stark warning about ticket re-sale on Saturday.
Following a pre-sale on Friday – which saw some gig tickets re-listed for a whopping £6K – fans on Saturday were dealt a double blow as websites went into meltdown an hour before sales opened.
Yet some of the successful gig-goers – set to attend one of the 17 dates across the UK and Ireland – might not be Oasis through and through.
One took to X to exclaim: “I got four tickets and I only know Wonderwall.”
Another added: “Got my tickets to #Oasis in #crokePark If they can open with Wonderwall and that song about Sally that’d be great so I can hear the two songs I like and go home.”
A third then wrote: “Wonder how many Susan’s are trying to get tickets just so they can see Wonderwall live,” as another wrote: “Can anyone teach me any songs other than Wonderwall?”
One continued: Oasis should have gone retro with the ticket sales … queue up outside Our Price & buy in person. Would also defeat the GenZ’s who only want to hear Wonderwall!”
Another was bound to irk desperate gig-goers as they put: “Oasis tickets in the bag!! So excited!
Can any #oasis fans recommend which album I should try first? Only really know Wonderwall but would love to listen to some more of their stuff before the big gig.”
Wonderwall was released as a single in 1995.
