LIAM Gallagher has mocked high ticket prices for his Oasis reunion tour.
Earlier today, the Don’t Look Back in Anger singer said he was feeling “snug as f***” despite the recent backlash.
And now the star has taken another cheeky comment under a fan’s post.
This person wrote: “Got any spare tickets?”
Liam replied to them, writing: “S*** loads but they’re really expensive 100 thousand pounds kneeling only.”
Just a few hours ago, Liam returned to social media with a new message for his fans.
He wrote: “OASIS are back you’re welcome and I hear their ATTITUDE STINKS good to know something’s never change.”
Then, when a string of comments from fans replied to his post by criticising the ticketing approach, Liam replied with two words: “Shut up.”
He was then asked how he was feeling about the big Oasis reunion, and he told fans he was feeling “smug”.
Liam responded: “SMUG only kidding SMUG AS F*** I told you all we were gonna get back together 1 fine day.”
The musician announced last week that he and his brother Noel Gallagher would come back for a reunion tour in 2025, and on Saturday the series of UK and Ireland shows sold out in less than a day.
Fans were beset with problems getting onto ticket websites, from being labelled bots and being kicked out of queuing to some ending up paying more than the advertised price of £148 as costs surged past £355.
The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) on Thursday launched an investigation into Ticketmaster, including how so-called ‘dynamic pricing’ may have been used.
When asked if he would do a free concert, he replied: “Don’t be silly”.
Another referenced his mother, Peggy, saying how she might feel about the ticket fiasco, and Liam responded by saying: “She’s gutted she couldn’t get a ticket.”
Liam also appeared to joke, that he had “loads” of tickets left, but could only sell them for £100,000 and they would be “kneeling only”.
The CMA will also scrutinise whether the sale of Oasis tickets by Ticketmaster may have breached consumer protection law.
Ticketmaster maintains it does not set concert prices and its website states this is down to the “event organiser” who “has priced these tickets according to their market value”.
A spokesman for the ticket sales company said: “We are committed to cooperating with the CMA and look forward to sharing more facts about the ticket sale with them.”
Oasis said in a statement: “It needs to be made clear that Oasis leaves decisions on ticketing and pricing entirely to their promoters and management, and at no time had any awareness that dynamic pricing was going to be used.
“While prior meetings between promoters, Ticketmaster and the band’s management resulted in a positive ticket sale strategy, which would be a fair experience for fans, including dynamic ticketing to help keep general ticket prices down as well as reduce touting, the execution of the plan failed to meet expectations.
“All parties involved did their utmost to deliver the best possible fan experience but due to the unprecedented demand this became impossible to achieve.”
Following the chaos over the weekend, Oasis announced new Wembley Stadium dates on the 27 and 28 September 2025 using a lottery system.
The final UK Live ’25 tour tickets released will use a new “staggered invitation-only ballot process” with applications to join the ballot opened first to those who were unsuccessful in the initial sale.
The Advertising Standards Authority reported receiving 450 complaints alleging “misleading claims about availability and pricing” from the Oasis ticket release.
