Setlist

Oasis brought their long-awaited Live ’25 reunion tour to Toronto for the first date of their North American tour on Sunday night (August 24).

It’s the first time the quintessential Britpop band has come to Canada in 16 years, and they made it count. Rain started coming down a little after halfway through the concert, during “Stand by Me,” and never abated, but Oasis didn’t shorten their setlist.

The band played songs from throughout their catalogue: six songs from their classic debut Definitely Maybe, eight from their beloved sophomore album (What’s The Story) Morning Glory? and many others from throughout their career. With a few exceptions, they played mostly crowdpleasers from their ’90s peak, with only two songs coming from the year 2000 or later.

For those paying attention to the first leg of their reunion tour in Europe, there were no surprises. This was the same 23-song setlist Oasis played from their opening reunion show in Cardiff, Wales to their last one before North America in Dublin, Ireland. But fans who came to belt along with classics like “Wonderwall” and “Don’t Look Back in Anger” were not disappointed, letting themselves get fully soaked to stay until the encore.

Before their customary “F—in’ in the Bushes,” (2000) the walk-on intro track they’ve used for over a decade, they also played Canadian rock legend Neil Young’s “Rockin’ in the Free World” before coming onstage at 8:45 p.m. ET.

Earlier, opening band Cage The Elephant played their own 11-song set, including three Billboard Canadian Hot 100-charting hits: “Ain’t No Rest For The Wicked,” “Shake Me Down” and “Come a Little Closer.”

After another date at the new Rogers Stadium tonight (August 25), they will travel to Chicago, East Rutherford (New Jersey), Los Angeles and Mexico City.
