After years of expressing distain for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Liam Gallagher has called the announcement of Oasis‘ induction this year “a real honor.”
In a series of tweets, Gallagher responded to Oasis being invited to join the institution alongside Phil Collins, Billy Idol, Iron Maiden, Joy Division/New Order, Sade, Luther Vandross, and Wu-Tang Clan.
“Reverse psychology vibes in the area Oasis RnR hall of farmers I mean famers,” Gallagher tweeted early Tuesday morning. “I wanna thank all the people who voted for us it’s a real honour ever since I was a little kid and singing in the shower I’d dream about 1 day being in the RnR hall of fame it’s true what they say anything is possible if you have a dream.”
When a fan asked “What happened to not wanting to be in it?,” Gallagher replied, “Well I was speaking to my mummy last night when the news broke and she thinks I may have been a little hasty with my perception of the organization she’s told me to stop being a dick and go to the awards and behave and you never know you might enjoy it.”

It’s unclear if he’s being sarcastic (he probably is), but the comments are in contrast to how Gallagher has spoken about the Rock Hall in the past. In 2024, when Oasis was nominated for the first time, he told The Sunday Times, “As much as I love Mariah Carey and all that, I want to say: Do me a favor and fuck off. It’s like putting me in the rap hall of fame, and I don’t want to be part of anything that mentally disturbed. Besides, I’ve done more for rock & roll than half of them clowns on that board, so it’s all a load of bollocks.”
That same year, he wrote on social media, “Fuck the Rock n Roll hall of fame its full of BUMBACLARTS LG. You know it I don’t need some wank award by some geriatric in a cowboy hat.” He also told fans not to bother voting because “as much as it’s appreciated it’s all a load of bollox.”

Last year, Gallagher also dismissed the band’s nomination, tweeting, “RNR hall of fame is for WANKERS.” Another fan replied asking “What are you gonna do if you win?” Gallagher responded, “Obv go and say it’s the best thing EVER.”
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony will take place on Nov. 14 at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. It will air on ABC and Disney+ the following month.
