(62 views)Finally the wait is over! Oasis put on an amazing show at the Palms in Las Vegas December 6th! They played their most popular hits as well as the fan favorites. Really I don't believe we could have asked for a better set list.
Liam had his usual air about him, back to the audience, walking off stage for any of Noel's songs, and once walked up to Noel's mic-stand and quickly did a mocking guitar playing gesture.
Kicking off the encore, Noel did a brilliant acoustic version of Don't Look Back in Anger. The visuals were fantastic, the show was strong all the way through, and I couldn't have asked for more!!! UK; you've got quite a show to look forward to when they return home! =)
To read a review of the LA show they played on 12/5, which also contains a setlist, see: www.rollingstone.com
