Oasis played AsiaWorld-Arena last night (April 7) despite cancellations of Beijing and Shanghai dates. The band launched the show with "Rock'N'Roll Star" and continued through singles hits "Lyla" and "The Shock Of The Lightning". Noel introduced the band's new drummer Chris Sharrock, who has been throwing drum sticks up in the air while drumming. Liam dedicated the song "Morning Glory" to the Stone Roses. After the encore break, the band came back on stage to bring along a string of great songs, "Don't Look Back In Anger", "Falling Down", "Champaign Supernova". Before their last number, Liam said "Thanks for buying our album, and thanks for coming. I guess we'll see you some time soon, and that's really empty. I don't care how empty it is, I will still play to all you people." The band covered the Beatles' "I Am The Walrus" to complete the show.
