The show last night was the first at the Co-op Live to celebrate Oasis’ Definitely Maybe in its 30th anniversary year. Liam told fans he intended to 'f***ing put this place on the map' as he took to the stage.

He told the audience he approved of the new venue as he performed some of Oasis' biggest anthems like Live Forever, Slide Away and Supersonic. Support came from Liam's son Gene Gallagher and his band Villanelle, and Liverpool indie legends Cast.
