Before Oasis’s reunion shows this year, you could have predicted certain sights: bucket hats? Check. Crowds decked out in Adidas? Absolutely. Enough beer to fill the Thames? Of course. But one unexpected sight was the number of families at these concerts—groups spanning generations, from kids experiencing their first big gig to older relatives who remembered seeing the band back in the 90s.
In Cardiff on the first night, one woman shared how she’d attended an Oasis show in the same city 31 years ago while pregnant with her son—now she was back with him and his young daughter. Nearby, a 10-year-old boy celebrated his birthday with his dad, who had first seen the band as a teenager with his own father. Similar scenes played out at Pulp’s recent shows—like their hometown gig in Sheffield last week, where kids knew every word to the hits (even the cheeky ones like Sorted for E’s and Wizz).
We’d love to hear your stories: Have you been to any big family outings for live music recently? Who did you see, and how was it? Did the shows bring back memories? What did it mean to experience it together? And what did the kids think?
