Noel Gallagher<\/a> said he wanted to leave the stage as the first Oasis<\/a> reunion show began, because he wasn\u2019t prepared for the strength of emotion he experienced.<\/p>\n He and brother Liam<\/a> opened their first concert since 2009 in Cardiff, Wales, on July 4. But within minutes, Noel told the BBC<\/a>, he was feeling an attack of nerves.<\/p>\n \u201cI grossly underestimated what I was getting into,\u201d Noel said. \u201cAfter about five minutes, I was like, \u2018Alright, can I just go back to the dressing room and start this again?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n READ MORE:<\/strong> Is Oasis Making a Live Album While on Tour?<\/a><\/p>\n He continued: \u201cI’ve done stadiums before and all that \u2013 but I don’t mind telling you, my legs had turned to jelly after about halfway through the second song. And I could have done with going back and taking a minute.<\/p>\n \u201cBut it\u2019s been an amazing thing.\u201d<\/p>\n Emotions ran so high that the brothers shared a brief hug at the end of the first show. \u201cWe’re not those kind of guys really, you know what I mean?\u201d Noel admitted.<\/p>\n He added that he was still struggling to explain how the reunion felt. \u201cIt\u2019s great just to be back\u2026 and just be doing it again. I guess when it\u2019s all said and done, we’ll sit and reflect on it.<\/p>\n \u201cBut it\u2019s great being back in the band with Liam \u2013 I forgot how funny he was.\u201d<\/p>\n Noel said his younger brother was \u201csmashing it\u201d and that he was proud of him, while joking that his voice was sounding good as a result of using AI.<\/p>\n He continued: \u201cHaving fronted a band for 16 years, I know how difficult that is. I couldn\u2019t do the stadium thing like he does it; it\u2019s not in my nature.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve got to say\u2026 \u2018Good for you, mate.\u2019 He\u2019s been amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n Oasis open the North American leg of their reunion tour<\/a> in Toronto on Aug. 24, and close it in Los Angeles on Sept. 7, before further shows in South America, England, Japan and Australia.<\/p>\n These are more than just concert souvenirs or stage documents from that awesome show you saw last summer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Gallery Credit: UCR Staff<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nNoel Gallagher Jokes That Liam Is Using AI for His Voice<\/h3>\n
