On 31 May 1993, Oasis took a gamble that changed music forever.

The band weren't even booked to play at King Tut's Wah Wah Hut in Glasgow. They piled into a van, travelled up from Manchester with just a few songs, and managed to get themselves onto the bill anyway.

In the audience that night was Creation Records founder Alan McGee.

As Noel Gallagher recalled, after the set McGee introduced himself and said he was from Creation Records. It felt surreal, but within hours Oasis had been offered a record deal. There were no celebrations on the drive home, just the long journey back to Manchester. When Noel got home at 6am and told his partner that Creation had offered them a deal, she burst into tears. Liam's ambitions at the time were beautifully simple: "I just want a bit of money and some new clothes."

Behind it all was Peggy Gallagher, who worked multiple jobs to raise Noel, Liam and Paul on her own. The brothers have often said they wanted to make her proud. Without her sacrifices, the story of Oasis might never have happened.

One unplanned gig. One man in the crowd. One decision that helped launch one of the biggest British bands of all time.
