How ya doin', alreet?" he asked as he walked onto the stage before belting out his hit Will We Talk? as revellers instantly started singing along.Famed for his rock anthems such as Howdon Aldi Death Queue and Seventeen Going Under, Sam quickly invited fans to start a mosh pit.But the Geordie star quickly halted his set after noticing fans were getting too crowded at the front before asking everybody to take a step back to ensure everybody was safe – with the audience offering a loud applause.Despite being on the music scene since 2013 and performing at festivals such as Glastonbury, it was Tramlines who offered Fender his first headline set of his career at this year's event.He certainly cemented his status as headline act worthy with pyrotechnics and fireworks illuminating the Sheffield skyline.Local businesses appeared to enjoy the thousands of punters descending on Owlerton as fans flocked into nearby bars and eateries before and after the event.While they may have faced uncertainty when former frontman Tom Meighan was axed, Kasabian proved they're a force to.
