On July 17th 2015 Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds played at the Benicàssim Festival in Spain.
Watch a number of videos from the gig below.
One of the non-musical highlights of the night was Noel chatting to the crowd, and in response to someone's Mum asking if her daughter could come on stage to play guitar, he replied "This isn't X-Factor! Or Cardiff's got talent!". Luckily the band were left to do what they do best, and after a perfect rendition of 'Dead in the Water', it was time for some Oasis classics, starting with one of the highlights of this tour's set, 'Going Nowhere'.
There can't be many better endings to a gig than the five tunes the band finished the gig on. Starting with 'The Masterplan', then into 'Little By Little' and an encore of 'Stand By Me', another trip to Be Here Now in this set, and possibly the best arrangement of 'Live Forever' since the Definitely Maybe tour. The night finished, predictably, perfectly on a song recorded just an hour down the road at Rockfield Studios in Monmouth. 'Don't Look Back In Anger', dedicated to "The English football team" finished a perfect night in Cardiff, and an incredible start to the tour. The band head to Wigan, London, Warwick and Halifax next on this short run of dates. Don't miss it!
