After performing a string of 14 sold-out shows in the UK and Ireland as part of their Live '25 tour, Oasis is currently taking their reunion tour around the world. Over the weekend, they wrapped up their North American leg of the tour, and they'll be back in London for two extra sold-out shows at Wembley Stadium that were added due to overwhelming demand, before heading off to Asia, Australia, and South America.
But one British fan who went to see the band perform in California this weekend has said they were "appalled" by the behaviour of the US fans after spotting what one of them was doing in the middle of the gig. Jennifer Jones said she failed to get any tickets for the UK shows, so when the US tour was announced, she decided to travel across the Atlantic to see the Wonderwall hitmakers on their first tour in 16 years.
While she insisted the journey was "worth it" to finally see Oasis live, she still wishes she had been able to get tickets in the UK instead, as she thinks the atmosphere would have been better.

In a video shared to TikTok, Jennifer recorded a clip of the band performing their hit song Supersonic. But during the video, she zoomed in on a concert-goer standing a few rows in front of her, who was on their phone.
When she zoomed in and the phone screen came into view, it was clear the fellow fan had the Spotifypage open for Supersonic and was looking up the lyrics to the song so that they could sing along - suggesting they didn't actually know the famous track as well as most Oasis fans might.
Jennifer captioned her video: "Appalling. We couldn't get tickets for any UK dates, we had no choice. Still worth it."
Commenters on the video were equally gobsmacked, as many of them argued that Liam and Noel Gallagher shouldn't have bothered going to the US.
Many said the show looked like it had "no atmosphere" and was a far cry from the raucous crowds at the UK shows, particularly in their hometown of Manchester.
One person said: "When I was in Manchester and they played Supersonic, the whole crowd was screaming. There is no atmosphere here."
Another added: "Not knowing Supersonic is criminal."
A third asked: "Why did they even go to America?"
Jennifer also offered more information in the comments, saying the person was with a group of people, none of whom seemed to know any of the songs on the setlist besides some of Oasis' biggest hits.
She wrote: "The fella was with three other people. One girl was looking through Snapchat all night, and they only stood up for Don't Look Back In Anger, Wonderwall, and Champagne Supernova.
"Oasis have been around 30+ years, this was not the time to 'learn'. I'm five months pregnant and stood for the whole gig, no excuses. Obviously still a biblical night, just SO annoying for genuine fans who couldn't get tickets."
However, some US fans have defended the US shows, claiming that not every gig was "dead".
One fan stated: "My entire section was belting it out at MetLife. I would like to think I was the loudest, though. So many people hate on the American shows. It was a blast. I'm so happy my favourite band came here. I'd go to every show if I could."
Another defended the fan in the video, writing: "I did this because I went with my partner, who was a big fan. I learned a ton of lyrics that night and now have a playlist of my favourite songs. Music and concerts are about discovery!!"
Oasis will next perform in the UK at London's Wembley Stadium on September 27th and 28th.
