Did they only plan to tour the album until then? I could be wrong, but it seemed like all promotion stopped then around the time things started heating up for Liam in New York. i do personally think the coachella thing is something to do with the love child in New York. For the rest of the tour / lack of it (outside uk) its not unreasonable to think they pulled all planned gigs as they didn't know what was happening with Gem, Gigs / tours are normally planned months- yrs in advance? So they might have pulled to not have to compensate venues/promoters if Gem wasn't better.

I thought they cancelled due to bad ticket sales?

As far as I can remember apart from Coachella they only cancelled Portugal at the start of the short European tour early 2014.

So, as I said, concerts were cancelled. The stuff in NY was what I was talking about. Low ticket sales can be blamed on many things.
Listen, I am a huge fan of Liam's. Even though I think the songs on BE were crap, I loved how they recorded his vocals and I think they were excellent. I wasn't kidding when I mentioned the Rod Stewart model before. He should pick GREAT songs, even if written by others, get awesome session musicians and record a great album.

I think the whole child case and divorce taken the wind out his sails. Liam kind of lying low and doing what he wishes. He never did before. Normal to adventure. Let's be honest, being in a band is a committed marriage. Liam long term with Oasis and Beady Eye. Never adventure far and never taken time to live a bit for himself.

Noticed on Twitter that someone asked Lou Archer why Beady Eye split, and she replied that "Liam left"

Liam's left a lot of things lately. He's a quitter !
So i guess no Oasis reunion then, except if they get back together with the old guys

Liam is pinnin' his hopes on an Oasis reunion. He's fairly sure it's gonna happen I think, seen as him & Noel seem to be on good terms this days, hence the reason he's gonna take a few years off, rest his voice & maybe work on some songs he's got. I think he doesn't see the point in wastin' any more time with Beady Eye.

I think he doesn't see the point in wastin' any more time with Beady Eye. An Oasis reunion will not happen but if I did, it would be at best 3-5 years away. Noel's new album is sure to be a success and he will likely be on the road well into 2016. After that, his usual 2-3 year break. However, if HFB#2 matches the commercial succes of his debut (or succeeds it) why would Noel want to bring Oasis back? He's already playing arenas by himself.

The whole problem is Liam listening to too much bullshit from his "manager."

Indications are that no matter what this tour will be shorter than the previous one.

And I get the sense that Noel is touring this because he has to. He said as much in the Facebook interview. That he was touring this because in the end, he has to tour his music to promote it. But I honestly would be shocked if this tour was as long as the last one. I think on the last tour he played the most US dates he's done since MG. That's a crap load of touring. This album would have to be far more successful than HFB 1 for it to be as long or longer than the previous tour.

I'm extremely optimistic that Chasing Yesterday will almost match wha High Flying Birds did. It'll be hard to match it with this being an awful year for record sales (every year it gets worse and worse. Scary). If it sells consistently, he will be under a lot of pressure to keep the tour chugging.

Ye honestly don't think a reunion will happen?! It will definitely happen, sooner than we all think. I'd rather it never happened though. With Liam in the musical wilderness he'll be leanin' on Noel to get them back together & Noel will eventually give in, he'll more than likely see it as a waste that Liam isn't puttin' music out & as he is his brother will give in & a reunion will happen. The whole problem is Liam listening to too much bullshit from his "manager." Said this before, she's definitely playin' a part in this.

He's writing better songs now. His album sounded more well rounded. His tours are equal in size to latter day Oasis gigs for the most part. He seems happy for once. Does playing a stadium mean that much to Noel?

I don't think it makes sense for them to do a reunion either but it will definitely happen. He won't want to see Liam left out in the cold for so long eventually so will come to the rescue.
