The live album
Familiar to Millions was recorded at the two concerts at Wembley Stadium. Due to Liam being drunk at the second concert, voiceovers were used from concerts in Yokohama. The second Wembley Stadium concert was also broadcast worldwide the same evening.

Noel Gallagher dedicated the song "Hey Hey My My" to
Kurt Cobain when they played in his hometown of Seattle on the sixth anniversary of his death.
