Oasis

By August 1996, when Oasis performed at Knebworth Park, they were riding a wave of immense popularity following the release of their groundbreaking second album, "(What's the Story) Morning Glory?" in October 1995. This album solidified their status as one of the leading British rock bands of the 1990s and featured iconic tracks such as "Wonderwall" and "Champagne Supernova." The Knebworth concert, where they played to over 250,000 fans across two nights, became a defining moment in their career and British music history. Interestingly, this performance is often cited as the pinnacle of Britpop culture. The band's success had reached such heights that Noel Gallagher, the band's principal songwriter, referred to the Knebworth shows as "the end of the beginning," highlighting the mixture of euphoria and impending challenges that would follow in their career trajectory.
