Oasis’ heart is with Minneapolis.
Lead singer Liam Gallagher took a moment to honor the victims of the Minnesota Catholic school and church shooting during the rock band’s Sunday performance at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
“I want to dedicate this next tune to the kiddies of Minneapolis — ‘Live Forever,’” Liam, 52, said, as the group performed their 1994 song for the audience.
Minneapolis church killer Robin Westman killed two children and injured 18 parishioners after opening fire at the Church of Annunciation in Minneapolis on Aug. 27.
Westman, who died from a self-inflicted gunshot, attended church several times to examine entry points before the attack, as well as determining when the children would be there without their parents.
Oasis, led by Liam and his brother Noel, 58, are currently on their reunion tour that kicked off July 4 in the UK. They returned to New Jersey for the first time since 2008 on Sunday for the first of two back-to-back shows at MetLife.
After a performance by opening act Cage the Elephant, the band took the stage and wowed fans by performing their greatest hits.
As Liam prepared to sing the power ballad “Stand By Me,” he told the crowd, “Gonna need your help in the choruses,” according to Billboard. The audience sang along as Liam belted out the 1997 single.
Later in the concert, Liam reportedly introduced their song “Slide Away” as “for the lovebirds,” before he jokingly told the crowd they were safe from any “Coldplay cameras” — referencing the Astronomer CEO scandal at one of Coldplay’s shows in July.
Noel, for his part, got the crowd going during the band’s encore performance of “The Masterplan.” He asked the audience who had never seen the band before, and after those people put their hands in the air, he told them, “You might’ve wondered what it might be like to sing this next song with 60, 70,000 of your fellow Oasis fans.”
“Well, you’re going to find out what that feeling is like,” Noel added.
At the end of the concert, fireworks lit up the sky above the stadium to close out Oasis’ first show in the Garden State.
Oasis reunited after the Gallagher brothers squashed their years-long feud that caused the band to break up in 2009.
Their concert in Cardiff, Wales, in July marked the first time the brothers were on stage together in 16 years.
The band’s 41-date reunion tour will end Nov. 23 in São Paulo, Brazil.
Music industry experts told The Post that the brothers are set to make at least $200 million from their reunion tour due to their lucrative deal with Live Nation.
