Oasis has taken to social media to thank fans after completing their first gigs Down Under in 20 years.
Brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher played to an estimated 320,000 concertgoers in Sydney and Melbourne over the last two weeks.
Sharing a highlight reel of the Aussie leg of their world tour on their Instagram on Monday, many followers claimed the shows were the best they had ever seen.
At one point in the video, one local fan showed off an amazing tattoo tribute to the boys from Manchester.

‘Thank you, Australia,’ the band said in the caption of the video, which featured countless scenes of die-hard Oasis fans rocking out while sporting band merch – including the notorious bucket hat.

Fans rushed to comment on their concert experience on the post, with more than one devotee dubbing the Aussie shows as ‘biblical’.
‘The most incredible two nights. Still pinching myself that it happened. OASIS FOREVER!!!’ gushed one fan, while another said, ‘It was one of the best days of my life!’
Another Oasis enthusiast said simply: ‘Best band in the world.’
‘Biblical – come back soon,’ cooed another fan.
‘Thank you, Oasis, it was biblical,’ agreed a fellow rock enthusiast on the same thread.
It comes after the band’s first Sydney shows on Friday had some fans fuming ahead of the sold-out gig.
A clip shared to Instagram just moments before the concert kicked off saw thousands of fans stuck in a line outside Accor Stadium with just 45 minutes until the main act hit the stage.
The fan shared the footage to the Bondi Lines account, saying the line was ‘f***ed’ and ‘not moving at all’.

‘Few people missing out on [the] first song,’ one person responded in the comments.
‘It was crazy! And no staff around,’ another added.
Some people blamed the concertgoers rather than staff, saying they should have arrived at the venue earlier if they wanted to get inside quickly.
‘Not that fook’n hard to understand—get there EARLIER,’ one wrote.
‘Should [have] got here earlier then, like me,’ added someone else.
Some fans began queuing outside Accor Stadium well into the early hours of Friday morning, with the gates opening at 6pm and the show starting at 7.30pm.
The tour was a massive success, with promoters Live Nation confirming that they sold 320,000 tickets for Oasis’ five stadium shows – three in Melbourne and two in Sydney – reported The Australian Financial Review last week.
The band will complete their tour with a series of shows in South America, including gigs in Argentina, Chile and Brazil.Â
