It has been a long time since Oasis performed live. But despite a 16-year lay-off, singer Liam Gallagher can confidently predict that when he and brother/guitarist Noel Gallagher reunite on stage next year for their first tour since 2008, not only will there be no cobwebs, but he double-dares any young band out there to stand toe-to-toe with the family.
“Got asked a ridiculous question yesterday so are OASIS gonna be as good as you once were because when sone bands get back together there not as good,” Liam wrote on X on Sunday (Nov. 10). “I said listen here you C–T even on our bad day we’ll still wipe the floor with majority of bands out there BUMBACLART LG x.”
The famously battling brothers — whose disdain for each other often resulted in on- and off-stage sniping back in the good old days — have buried the hatchet and are planning to hit stadiums around the world next year for the first time since their 2008-2009 world tour.
The outing is slated to kick off on July 4 with the first of two shows at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, U.K., followed by a mid-summer run of UK/Irish dates before the brothers hop over to North America in late August for shows in Toronto, Chicago, New Jersey and Los Angeles before moving on to Mexico in September, and then back to London for their 6th and 7th shows at Wembley Stadium.
The tour will continue with a run of fall gigs in Australia, followed by recently announced shows in South America, kicking off with two stops at Estadio River Plate in Buenos Aires, Argentina, as well as shows in Chile and Brazil.
At press time it was unclear if Oasis will release any new music — or perform new songs — on the tour. In September, a fan asked if there would be a new album, to which Liam Gallagher said, “Yep it’s already finished.” He later doubled-down on the response when another fan asked what he thought about older brother songwriter Noel’s new tunes. “Blown away,” Liam said. Oasis’ most recent album was 2008’s Dig Out Your Soul.
