Liam being sober probably helps

Please play somewhere in the us 

This reunion is what it will take to get me back to Lollapalooza. Unfortunately I don’t see them doing much else besides festivals in the U.S.

Tim Simmons

ugh. Didn’t even consider that. Fuuuuuuuuuck

given2fly23

Maybe/hopefully I’m wrong!

"The tour is expected to take in dates in the UK at the Glastonbury festival and stadiums including Wembley, Twickenham and the Tottenham Hotspur stadium, as well as a run of dates at Liam and Noel Gallagher's beloved Etihad Stadium, home to Manchester City football club.

It is understood that two huge promoters - SJM Concerts and Live Nation - are in the running to land the tour, which would include dates across Europe and in America.

Glastonbury have informed the band that a headline slot at next summer's festival has been 'left open' for Oasis in the increasingly likely event the band confirm a reunion"

Hopefully they are ROCK ENOUGH to just keep going from when they left of and act "as a living band" and have a great setlist covering most/all of their albums, and not--

--go on a dead What's the story... album tour playing that album in order with some Definitely Maybe songs tacked on in the encore.

I never thought I'd see it in my lifetime.  Kinda on the fence here. Has to be original line-up with bonehead and guigsy.  And then alan white on drums. Remember the wheels came off around the last 2 lps
 They dialed it in towards the end. Noel checked out.  Liam was bolloxed.  Interesting to see how this goes. The ticket hunt will be great fun. They would sell out 10 shows in Wembley in 2.mins. One of the greatest bands of all time imo. They we're unbelievably amazing 1994 to 1997

And i hope that Pierce Brosnan returns as Bond

Come on now

eboweddie

The final decision would be noels  Might favour andy bell and Gem. Maybe even chris sharrock on drums. Any reunion set would have first 2lps featuring heavily.  Bonehead playing with Liam now. Guigsy keeps a low profile.  Could drive a truckload of money to his house krusty style!! He's not made of stone

goddamn!!!

never saw them live!!! really hope they play a show in Lisbon next year!!

and play all around the world please!!!

mrk2

I think next summer most likely gonna be UK only. But I'm sure they will stretch it out until 2026 at least.

Saw them four times in their (semi) prime. Stockholm 1996, 1997 and 2002. Also here in Finland in 2000, but that was without Noel. 

Wherever they will play, I'll be there. Just have to.

never got the hype behind them

From a... *uhm* KISS forum:

I believe the line up will be Liam, Noel, Bonehead, Gem on bass and Zak Starkey on drums. That's what I've been told by mate who works for SJM Promotions. The same person who told me 2 years ago that this was happening in 2024, but it got postponed due to Noel's divorce. He's a reliable source for information.

Liam is probably one of the last true rock n roll stars today , like those over the top bloated "i dont give a fuck" attitude rock stars

mrk2

I think it'll be Noel, Gem and Bonehead on guitars.

I think it will be the 2009 lineup with Bonehead added in some capacity (if even just showing up for some songs on some shows)

Tim Simmons

I bet it’s the High Flying Birds plus Liam and Bonehead

Never bought tickets for Wembley or in the UK before.  Do shows there use the standard resale sites such as StubHub if I cant get tickets initially?  Is resale allowed in the UK?

NME (in some long winded, weird angled piece about it NOT being the original lineup) is saying it’s the last Oasis lineup sans Andy Bell.

so HFB+Liam

Spiritual_Chaos

Oasis last lineup is what it should be. Just a 15 year speed bump.

mcgruff10

I actually kind of saw oasis once:
March 9, 1996: Note: Billed as Oasis show, but later it turned out that was Noel Gallagher solo show. Noel did only two songs acoustically and abruptly left the stage due to it being extremely cold in the venue.  

Spiritual_Chaos

probably fake ofc

Weston1283

Can they really fill multiple football stadiums here in the states?

eboweddie

I'd say that's not too far off being spot on. Croke park will be available after both GAA finals in July re Dublin dates.

Maybe? Those 4 cities after 15 years? A really strong opener or 2 would help

Tim Simmons

We also know Live Nation has been loving leveling artists up in venues they can’t sell out. 

Chicago wise I have no doubt they’d sell out the United Center for a night or 2. So Soldiers isn’t far off. 

Weston1283

Also sort of surprising that there isn't a Tokyo date, no?

Tim Simmons

I'm sure S.America, AUD/NZ and Japan will be in the Winter (Summer, where appropriate)

Spiritual_Chaos

I think it will just be the UK (at first at least)

Yeah i have the same feeling. Only UK to start.
