An Oasis superfan is feeling supersonic after tattooing her Murrayfield ticket on her arm ahead of the band’s upcoming Edinburgh shows.<\/p>\n

Shannon Rattray, 29, was born at the height of Oasis mania in 1995 and has longed to see the Britpop<\/a> legends her entire life.<\/p>\n

Her parents, Sharon, 51, and Donald, 59, also loved the band, but never got<\/a> to experience the Gallagher brothers in concert because they were too busy bringing up Shannon and her siblings.<\/p>\n

When Oasis broke up in 2009, the family, from Midlothian, thought they’d would never get the chance to see them live.<\/p>\n

But when the group announced their reunion tour, Shannon managed to bag four tickets<\/a> for August 12 in the capital.<\/p>\n

She will go to the gig with her mum and dad and boyfriend, Kai, also 29.<\/p>\n

The mum -of-two told the Record: \u201cI have waited for this moment for nearly 30 years<\/a> so I wanted something to mark it that will last forever. I might be slightly mad for doing it, but this concert<\/a> means the absolute world to me.<\/p>\n

“I was brought<\/a> up listening to Oasis and my mum and dad never got round to seeing them because they were raising me and my siblings.<\/p>\n

“When we saw the announcement that they were coming back, I sat in the queue for hours for tickets.<\/p>\n

“When I got them, I was crying and jumping about with excitement<\/a>. It was such a special moment<\/a> being able to call my mum and tell her that her dream of seeing Oasis live was coming true!<\/p>\n

“I cried down the phone to her.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a family have spoken about how we\u2019ve wanted Oasis to get back together so many times and I have spent countless occasions belting out their songs with my parents<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fact that we never thought this would happen again makes it even more special.”<\/p>\n

Shannon decided<\/a> to cement her special memory in ink on July 23.<\/p>\n

She continued: “It was by pure chance that the tattoo artist that I had contacted had space before the gig<\/a>, so I thought know you what I am just going to go for it.<\/p>\n

“Some might say I am absolutely<\/a> ridiculous for getting it done, especially given their track record of falling out, but hey, if they break up before<\/a> the gig it will be a hilarious story to tell.”<\/p>\n
