A short walk from the stadium at Murrayfield Ice Rink, Scotland’s top Gallagher tribute act Definitely Oasis warmed up the early crowd.

Their lead singer, Brian McGhee, said the band had never been busier since the group reformed.

“We’re always busy, but this is probably the busiest year we’ve had,” he said.

“Next year is looking like being even busier. The demand has just gone insane, it has just gone through the roof.”

His bandmate, Noel Gallagher alter-ego Martin Reid, said it was easy to see why tickets for the gigs had been like gold dust.

“Noel’s songs have just stood the test of time,” he said.

“The thing is, it doesn’t matter what you think of the band in terms of the attitude, the songs are just phenomenal.”
