Gallaghers back together and giving people what they want

A total of 5,789 days after Liam Gallagher threw a plum at his older brother Noel at a festival in Paris, setting in motion a chain of events that would lead to Oasis's breakup, the Gallaghers walk onstage with Liam's arm slung over his brother's shoulder.
The words “This is not a drill” ring out over the PA, followed by the opening chords of Hello.
“It’s good to be back,” sings Liam, sporting an unnecessary cagoule in the July heat, as Noel remains sphinx-like, focused on his guitar.
But when Noel sings too, his voice curling around his brother's, the emotional reality of their long-awaited reunion dawns. It’s like a dam breaking, a collective yearning satisfied.
