Jessica, from Manchester, attended the sold-out reunion show on Thursday, 8 August, with her mum. Before the gig, her mother had bought her a small blanket, which Jessica decided to turn into a homemade banner reading:
“Oasis saved my life.”
Speaking to the Manchester Evening News, Jessica said:
“My mam had bought me a little blanket/flag and said I should take it and I decided to paint on it saying how much Oasis means to me and hope I got to a barrier to show them.
“I was third row for most of the gig but the people in front of me were so kind and let me to the barrier to hang my sign over it during the encore. I was sobbing – like I had been for most of the gig – and during The Masterplan I saw Noel look over.
“He had to tilt his head because I was very far on his left and there were cameras and speakers in the way and my flag was tilted a bit to the side and difficult to read.”

For Jessica, the experience was overwhelming: seeing Noel Gallagher glance toward her banner as the band played The Masterplan was a moment she’ll “never forget.”
