I know a couple of people on here will be interested in this Oasis reunion. I for one cant bloody wait. I absolutely loved the first two albums. Yes, you can hear Quo in a few of their songs, as well as other bands influences. I liked their swagger and attitude, I had lost interest in Quo in the mid nineties ( apart from the Xmas gigs), so these lads filled the void. I saw them live at Wembley stadium in 2000 I think it was, fantastic they were. I will try and get tickets ( fat chance) when they go on sale.

I read they were hinting at it but didn't realise it was an actual thing yet.
I was quite keen on Oasis and really liked the first two albums. But the next one, Be Here Now, I didn't take to other than a couple of tracks and I drifted away from them after that.
I saw them at the SECC in Glasgow in 1997 but they weren't great and were falling apart at the time. They looked completely disinterested and came across as very unprofessional considering what we'd all paid for tickets.
The two Gallaghers' solo work has been very good though. Although Liam tends to sound like Oasis. Noel has experimented a bit more.
Reunions are a bit of a thing now. And I dare say it'll be successful. Just gigs or is there an album being touted?

The money is running down apparently ( no sympathy here!) Noel has just forked out 20 mil for a divorce!! Also the albums that they make now do not sell like they used to, so touring is the best way to make money. Rumor control says the tour will be huge, 10 dates at Wembley stadium, plus outdoor gigs in Manchester and a couple in Scotland. Not sure if a new album is coming out though.

Announcement at 8am tomorrow. Don't put sound on though.

First 2 albums were quite the debut. Never a huge fan and not a fan of their nonsense, but can't deny the quality of stuff like Live Forever or Rock and Roll Star.

Saw Oasis play the Westcliff Pavilion, in Southend in April 1995, I'm assuming the tickets will be more then the £8 I payed at the time.

It will be successful regarding ticket sales they probably can sell out wembley stadium 10 times within hours. Just hope they treat it all seriously and no stupidity happens on the road between them and it all gets cancelled half way through. None of the non gallagher originals will feature and it will be noel’s flying birds band backing them up. Some of them have already played in oasis on the last tour they did. It is possible bonehead may feature in some capacity as been in Liam’s band.

Yes, I remember this track. Noel also was seen wearing a Quoasis T-shirt after Blur took the piss saying Oadis sounded like Quo. There are Quoasis tops and t-shirts available to buy online if you do wish!

It was long rumoured of course, and behind the scenes they knew for quite a while. You don't set out and book venues for 14 nights (so far) without considerable planning. I think it was first touted in 2019, Covid in 2020 delayed matters. 2024 was considered, both Liam & Noel's teams were in discussions with venues for potential 2024 dates. Noel's divorce however may have been a factor in delaying it to 2025; a tour of this size being booked only after final divorce proceedings were completed. So they've known for quite a while this was coming, but the 30th anniversary of their classic 'Whats The Story' couldn't have been a better time.
Oasis are Liam & Noel, and with all due respect to previous support members, they all know that too. Once Liam and Noel are there, it is Oasis. There have been 8 other band members - originals Tony McCaroll, Guigsy, and Bonehead. McCaroll replaced by Alan White in 1995. Guigsy and Bonehead gone in 1999. Gem Archer & Andy Bell joined in 2000 and remained to 2009. Alan White replaced by Zak Starkey on drums, who in turn was replaced with Chris Sharrock.
It is almost a certainty Sharrock will be the drummer, and Gem Archer will likely be there on guitar (both current members of Noel's High Flying Birds outfit). Bonehead, who played with Liam on the recent tour, I would think will almost certainly be involved too or at least on some dates. Bass I would think will be Russ from Noel's band. Even if Sharrock, Archer or Bonehead were not involved, it still would be Oasis as Liam & Noel would front it.
