Get the tissues out, the parkas on, and maybe fix yourself a stiff drink because Oasis fans are on the edge of their seat.

Yesterday Liam Gallagher responded to fans concerns about the long-awaited Oasis LIVE ‘25 tour, set to kick off on 4^th July in Cardiff (UK), being scrapped before it’s even begun.

That’s right, after 16 long years of sibling beef, we’re the closest we’ve ever come to hearing ‘Champagne Supernova’ echo through stadiums one last time. 

The Gallagher brothers have infamously rolled in turbulent territory, but Liam said jamming with Noel has felt “spiritual” and that the tour is absolutely going ahead. Liam confessed he’d been bruised by his “conflicts” with Noel, admitting he wishes a reunion happened sooner and that he regrets the “wasted years” leading up to this moment. 

For those keeping score: Oasis formed in 1991, debuting with their album ‘Definitely Maybe’, before splitting in 2009, amid a blaze of flying guitars and insults. Their historic return, announced in August ‘24 just two days ahead of the albums 30^th anniversary, has fans genuinely believing they’ve put the past behind them for one last moment on stage. 

Now, we’re dangerously close to the first show… and you know what we definitely maybe can’t handle? Another breakup. 

On a lighter note, just yesterday the band dropped a fully remastered, 15^th Anniversary re-release of ‘Time Flies… 1994-2009’ – a quadruple vinyl deluxe box set and double CD. 

Should the tour survive, Oasis is set to bring their Britpop magic around the globe, with Australia marked as their second last stop. Joining them on the road are Cast, Richard Ashcroft, and Cage The Elephant. 

Even Noel’s mate and U2’s frontman, Bono, said he was “shocked” by how good the bands rehearsals have sounded. If that isn’t a glowing review from rock royalty, we don’t know what is.

For now, let’s throw on a parka, and cross every possible finger, toe and tambourine in hopes that Liam and Noel can keep their cool and get back on stage, one last time. 

Because hearing Noel’s genius lyrics with Liam’s raw vocal energy live again isn’t just a gig, it’s Britpop redemption.  

It’s the comeback of the century… and it NEEDS to happen.
