Paul Grist: If you’re thinking about getting tickets for the Oasis reunion tour in 2025, you’re probably best off opting for the earlier dates. Just a side note.
David Quantick: I’m not saying anything could go wrong, but if I were to go, I’d get tickets for Cardiff… My Oasis anecdote. I’m introduced to Noel. “Hi Noel, I’m a big fan.” “That’s not the impression I got.”
Peter Hogan: Oasis, Schmoase.
Ned Hartley: If you never liked Oasis or, even more daring, found them boring, it is IMPORTANT that you tell everyone. This is something people MUST know. Don’t ruin their joy. Everything has to be about you, always and forever.
Kieron Gillen:I usually rank Oasis alongside Babylon 5, something I was obsessed with for two years in the 1990s and have no idea what I was thinking about.
Timmy Heague:I won’t believe it until I see it. And by that I mean when I’m at the concert and they cancel five minutes before the show because they had an argument.
Kevin Ketner: I try to explain to my wife why all my open tabs indicate that I’m planning a trip to Dublin next year to see Oasis… I set up an out of office message telling everyone that I’m doing karate in my garden for the rest of the day because of the Oasis reunion.
Olly MacNamee: I despised Oasis in the 90s and I still do. Does anyone have a time machine so I can just jump to 2026 and miss all the nostalgic craziness coming next summer?
Jonathan Vankin: It should be fun, but it won’t really be Oasis. It’s Noel’s band High Flying Birds, with Liam on the lead singer. It’s a reunion of the two eternally feuding brothers, but without Paul Arthurs, Paul McGuigan and Tony McCarroll. At least that’s what was reported today.
James Alistair Henry: I would like to block out the word “oasis”, but there is a non-negligible probability that doing so will result in me dying of thirst in the desert in a few years and I don’t know if I can take that risk.
Billy Lahiff: I’m Irish and pretty, not posh, and I always thought Oasis were complete idiots compared to Blur, lol
Chris Hewitt:I’ve heard rumours that Oasis tickets will cost HOW MUCH pounds and FUCKING pence. Currently unconfirmed.
Tom Ward: I might give Oasis a chance, I always thought I was too cool for them back then, but it’s hard to deny that they’re good songwriters. And it’s impressive that they’ve gotten so big because they’re clearly a whirlwind of uncontrollable nastiness.
Christopher Rhodes: “I know I’m in the minority here, but I really, really don’t like Oasis.” So you’re basically saying to Oasis, “I don’t think anyone thinks the same about you as I do”? (SORRY! Please don’t throw things at me)
Sooz Kempner: I don’t even care about Oasis, but I’m tempted to buy a ton of tickets just to deny some of the most boring men on the planet their chance, heh, heh. I’ll also sell them all to 20-year-old TikTok girls.
Tom Mueller: What if the “Oasis reunion” was actually a UFC fight between the brothers?
Dan Whitehead:The key difference is that although the Beatles started out as a regular rock’n’roll bar band, they very quickly started doing things that nobody had heard before. They were experimental, often to the point of excess. Oasis could sound like Sgt. Pepper, but they never made an album like that.
John Riordan: “I’m totally obsessed with this! #Oasis by Sound and Vision…You can purchase a print of this image in my online store.
My own lasting memory of Liam Gallaher is him walking through Soho in the 90s, one of the sex workers hanging from a doorway screaming at him: “Liam! Liam! You’re free!” He kept walking, but with the biggest, most leering grin on his face…
