Amsterdam gig was great. Liam gave us all what he could. I knew that he couldn't have pulled off Amsterdam and Brussels for many reasons, yet I feel really sorry for the people who went to Hamburg gig because they deserve to see the complete gig, just like all the others. I wasn't bothered to queue up outside this time, so chilled with my friends in a pub in the afternoon. Despite of that, I could easily got a barrier. The crowds were very mixed - from young ones (16, 17 years old) to "experienced" gig-goers. Just like the last time, British people were everywhere, in the venue, in the pub, in the city centre etc. My English friends with their little one came over to see Liam again and it's becoming like our usual meet up's in Amsterdam which is really nice. Set list was good. I've avoided to see it beforehand. Liam made me really happy by playing Columbia and Gas Panic! and not to forget Why Me? Why Not. too! He scrapped For What It's Worth and instead of it, played Morning Glory. He did mention that he couldn't have hit high notes, so therefore a small change on his set list. He's let us sing Live Forever along and the chorus for Acquiesce. With Bonehead standing next to him, Supersonic couldn't go wrong, same as the last time. I thought Liam sounded not too bad, was better than I expected considering what happened in Hamburg and his band sounded a lot better than the last time. He wore a white coat which he bought in a dodgy shop in the city centre in the afternoon. He and the band left stage after the 1st encore and quite some people left, but I knew he would come back and so he did. Cigarettes and Alcohol for the second encore! I have to say that the crowds were timid compared to the last time. Maybe because of the bigger venue? or the strict controle? I don't know. At least I got less beer shower this time. Well done Liam and thanks for the great time again. Hope to see you very soon again and take care of your voice because your voice is you and you're your voice. Storm is coming, so I really hope all those who travelled to see him will have a safe journey back home! and for all the others who yet to see him on this European tour, stay safe, leave your phone in your pocket during the gig and enjoy every moment! Amsterdam gig last night was easily one of the best and loudest gigs I’ve ever been too ! Huge difference from a American gig, I can see why Liam is not bothered when he comes to America now. I could barley hear liam during the oasis hits because everyone sang along so loud. Definitely gonna try to catch Liam in Europe every tour now! http://instagr.am/p/B8Tv-_7HvQR I told you. Next time you should be in the standing area. Safe journey back home! I went to the show in Amsterdam and thought it was great. Not because of Liam but because of everything surrounding it. I've never seen Liam, Noel and/or Oasis play in the U.K. but for 2 hours it felt a little bit like a show on his hometurf. I said to a security guy he could speak Dutch to me and told me I was one of the few. Going by the crowd reactions it was clear he was right. It made for a very happy atmosphere as in the past 10 years the Dutch have changed from a fantastic crowd to one that mostly like to either sit/stand still or just talk through the gig. I stood in the back and had fun with the British while a lot of Dutch people were talking through every song. I've travelled the world seeing concerts everywhere and have started to despise Dutch crowds a lot. Liam mentioned the talking as well. After the first songs it became clear the sound was off and his mic wasn't working properly. He addressed the crowd as well, saying something about it being a rock & roll gig and not a visit to your grannies? I had a hard time understanding what he says, not because of his accent but because of the poor sound. The Ziggo Dome offers great acoustics but tonight had to be the worst sound I've ever heard, clearly an issue with the mix as opposed to your usual poor acoustics. Once Morning Glory had been played things changed a little. Liam found his way back in the show and with the volume going up fewer people were able to chat. The English around me sang loudly though, and I didn't mind. For the first time ever I experienced that football-fanatic atmosphere I'd only seen on DVD's. It's also obvious why a lot of English people who've never seen a show anywere else claim Liam has always been in top form - it's hard to say otherwise when you can't hear him at all. His vocals did become hoarse by the time the show was at an end. I had a great time, setlist was good, no Wonderwall, Gas Panic was immense and I felt the band sounded miles better compared to last time. By the time the next album drops I reckon I'll fly to Manchester to see him play a show there. I've no interest in these festival performances but the difference between this performance and the one I saw several years ago was night in day. In 2018 the party was in the back only. This time, the party was everywhere. I agree everything you said. I never understand how on earth someone could keep talking (and keep taking video's on their phone) while you're at a gig. If you go to a gig, you go to a gig and if you want to chat with your friends, you don't go to a gig. Simple rule. Ziggo Dome has to get rid of that stupid token system. A large cup of beer was 10 Euro! Bastards. is there a tour program available? No, but a tour T shirt (white and black) on all the dates on back, 30 Euro and a tour poster for 5 Euro.

There is a storm warning for today & tomorrow in germany. They already cancelled one bundesliga match today so stay safe folks if you plan to attend his concert tomorrow. My plan was to take the train to cologne but I think that they might cancel most of them. I heard about the cancelling of the football match today - but do you think they cancel the indoor gig? Or did you mean there are no trains because of the storm?

Or did you mean there are no trains because of the storm? I guess they cancel some of the trains to and from cologne. I don't think that they will cancel the gig. It's indoor, there are no trees around the building and the parking lot is on the opposite of the hall.

Great to see Liam just hanging out with fans in all these different cities. Not many people would be as welcoming as he is.

Dunno about the beard... makes him look older than he is. Maybe it's cause of the smock (lovely coat, like). The problem is he doesn't maintain it very well. He should be trimming it more often.

^ That was countless numbers of flying beer of €10 each.
My friends have to spend another 2 days in Amsterdam as their flight back home got cancelled yesterday.
For those who'll attend at tonight's gig, stay safe and enjoy!

Nice show. Instead of taking the train I just drove to cologne by car because of the storm warning and arrived at about 4 o'clock in the afternoon. They opened the doors at 6:30 so I decided to wait in line from 4:30 on. Front row for me and it was really relaxed there. The crowd was better than in 2018 and it seems that Liam enjoyed the show as well.

Yeah it was really fun and rowdy crowd, everyone around me kept trying to high five and hug me, I just wanted to enjoy the show haha but it was alright because we were all drunk. Thanks again for all your help ! I forgot to mention everyone actually thought Liam was about to walk off stage after wall of glass because it looked like someone came up to check his throat at the side of the stage.

Been a while since I last posted, just wanted to drop that Berlin was the best Gallagher-related gig I've seen yet. Absolute madness in the front, especially during the encore. I'm drenched in a somewhat tacky fluid, which I hope is not what I fear it to be, haha, shower next anyway. Can't really judge how Liam's voice went along since it was a nonstop singalong and all I'm hearing now is a monotonous peeping noise. Gene was on drums for The River btw!

Last night's gig was absolutely brilliant! I thought Liam was going to walk off as his voice was struggling on the first few songs. It got better throughout though.
The venue and crowd were great too!

Heh, going to see a Beatles-Oasis-other British bands tribute band tomorrow. It will be a great warm-up for Vienna. It’s all about the contrast!

Liam sang great and looked cool as fuck in his white coat! I was front row and saw Gene watching the gig from the side of the stage, besides for The River he also stayed on stage for Gas Panic to do some percussion. It got quite rowdy at the front, so I think the crowd was really good in the standing area! Great setlist, too I would never miss a Liam gig if I have the chance to go

I'm disappointed he dropped "Be still" from the setlist after the first European gig.
Sure, it's been replaced by "Why me? Why not", which is a good thing as I like that one, but "Be still" is the kind of rock song that should be huge live; I'd much rather hear it than "Halo" or even "The river".
