Oasis ‘reunion’ dates revealed as Noel and Liam Gallagher consider Knebworth gigs
AFTER I revealed last week that Liam Gallagher’s agents had put forward plans for Oasis to perform four nights at Knebworth in 2025, I can reveal they are considering doing the gigs in June of that year.
The summer comeback concerts would mark the 30th anniversary of (What’s The Story) Morning Glory?, Oasis’s 22million-selling 1995 album and see them perform to up to 125,000 fans a night.
A source said: “Agents are provisionally looking at dates in June, which would see fans enjoying Oasis again with the chance of the sun shining.
“Of course, even if it did pour down with rain, fans would still show up for the historic reunion.”
The news sparked some lively name-calling between brothers Liam and Noel this week, but I’m told the siblings are just enjoying upping the ante publicly.
Noel labelled his brother Liam a “coward”, while Liam blasted his big bro on Twitter.
My mole adds: “For Liam and Noel, this public slanging match is all part of the show – they know it gets everyone’s attention and keeps people guessing.
“Both are set to release solo albums soon and are each due to tour next year, so it helps to keep people riveted.”
It all comes after their former Britpop rival, Blur singer Damon Albarn, revealed in The Sun last week that he is convinced Oasis will reform.
Damon said: “I can guarantee they’re going to reform. In fact, I have put money on it.
“They’re brothers and it would be wonderful to see them reconcile.”
Meanwhile insiders are hoping the Gallaghers’ long-time Oasis band-mate, guitarist Bonehead, aka Paul Arthurs, who still performs with Liam, can knock their heads together.
Someone needs to . . .
