Doesn't Noel dislike (What's The Story) Morning Glory? to some degree? Seems that if he were to come back it would be for Definitely Maybe. Think of the money though, that's the thing. With all the legal fees from his divorce, what's the quickest way to make a quick buck? Tour your most commercially successful album, make a shitload of cash, recuperate all the money spent in the legal proceedings and then go back to doing whatever you want

I bumped into a random girl at the Noel Cardiff gig, she was pretty pissed but actually said something very interesting which i havent seen anyone else say She said they could get back together (in a sense), Noel could write the songs and Liam could sing them. Technically they are back together, release albums but dont tour, i thought that was pretty genius coming from a piss head 😂 I mean she is right but these days the money is in the touring isn’t it? That’ll be the payday for them rather than album sales.

I still don't get how deadset some people are on this never happening. Same, don't get that either. Some of those who are so adamant that this will never happen probably also said that Noel is in a happy marriage and will never get a divorce and that Liam will never make a solo album. Tbh, it would be funny to see all those people proven wrong as over the years some were kinda rude about this, basically making fun of people who wanted to discuss a potential reunion as if it's so stupid of them to consider the possibility 👀

I don't think it'll happen but the time really has come tbh.
They've had more than enough solo albums by this point, frankly not that enthused by their solo stuff anymore might just be me.
But it's time for a reunion. 🔥

If a reunion does happen then I would only be truly satisfied if it was a full on reunion, rather than just a few gigs. They'd have to be pals again.
Those that keep pointing to The Stone Roses coming back together as a signal that 'anything can happen' are underplaying just how bad the blood between the two brothers is.

I just don’t see it happening anytime soon and not just because of Liam and Noel’s relationship. Simply put they just don’t need to it.
When most other artists have reformed it tends to be because they haven’t been relevant for a while, need a boost and most importantly need the money.
Noel has arguably made his strongest solo album and Liam sold out Knebworth recently and is selling out every venue he plays in seconds. Both brothers are succeeding on their own and can save face by not bowing to the other. The more this carries on the less likely they reform.
Personally, whilst this might be selfish because I got to see Oasis 5 times, I think we have the best of both worlds at the moment. Both are releasing new material regularly which for artists in their 50’s is very good going and both touring. If you fancy a more chilled vibe with beautifully polished production go see Noel, if you want to rock out and recreate that amazing chaotic Oasis live feeling go see Liam, it’s great

If I learned something in life is that you never know what's coming next. They have had a terrible relationship in the past, and maybe they still have it. But you never know. I'm currently going through a divorce and my life and the decisions I am taking have changed a lot in ways I would not have expected before getting divorced.
Then some external factors seem to help: Noel's divorce and midlife crisis, Definitely Maybe and Morning Glory anniversaries...
I think anything could happen, reunion or not.

I was desperate for a reunion from the moment they broke up. I always thought it would happen after NGHFB album 1, but when it didn’t and time has gone on, I’ve kind of gone off on the idea. And now that I have, I have a feeling it might actually be in the works for 2025. I’m now wondering if the DM tour was a ‘testing the water’ moment to see if the demand was still there, particularly from the younger generation for 100% oasis material.
Nothing at all to base this on other than some small language choices by both over this past 6 months. Neither has anything on the agenda for 2025 either. Who knows. I just wish it happened when I was hungrier for it several years ago

Noel could always sell the Oasis back-catalogue if he needs the money. That's what he's been considering doing.

I am sceptical, hopeful but sceptical.
I think if they are going to do a reunion tour or residency then it has to be next year. Liam wont be able to sing the songs forever and nobody is getting any younger. Morning Glory is their biggest album and both would make an absolute fortune. The kids are all back on board so tickets for any gigs would be hot cakes 100% - Potential for gigs of the decade just for having the Oasis brand back. However that does mean planning, warm ups and rehearsal and I am not sure any amount of money could make that happen. Plus it COULD tarnish the legacy if not done well.
Also, similar to the Stone Roses and Mani's mum, when Peggy dies they will definitely be in the same place which could spur a personal reconciliation between the brothers. However she might outlive both of them and no telling if any music would happen as a result.
If there is a reunion I dont want it to be gigs for the money. I mean I'll take it but I'd want new music, written by Noel and with harmonies and proper choruses - but then I think, as others have mentioned, WHO else would be in the band?! So many variables

The only other possibility is a reunion somewhere later down the line for some kind of Anthology collection like the surviving Beatles did in the 90's. No gigs just music - Demo's outtakes and a couple of new songs as extra's! Interviews together and a reconciliation, all ex band members involved in some way - This is probably the BEST outcome of any reunion in my view. But I live in an alternative reality sometimes

My friend said that “something” (taps nose but nothing falls out) is pencilled in for September. Whether it happens or not I suppose we’ll find out soon-ish? Don't know why more hasn't been made of this post. Rory has always been very good for information.

But otherwise I don't really care if it doesn't happen. More importantly they should just reconcile as brothers... And in a sense I don't really want Noel playing second fiddle to Liam again, I love the High Flying Birds way too much lol

Noel could write his songs for Oasis, do it in his studio for much cheaper than going to Abbey Road or LA and then go on tour with NGHFB.

I firmly believe that this forum would know before Reddit. Someone posted a similar story on TikTok saying that Wembley was booked for the 21st September. Now, that is Liam's birthday but he is playing in Riyadh that evening and doing his Malta festival the night after. Someone else on Reddit is telling me that it is 2025, not this September. It is absolute bollocks and just faceless idiots spreading rumours - probably based off Liam's tweet. What is far more likely, is that Liam will be expanding the DM tour to a world (UK, Mainland Europe and America) tour for WTSMG. Everyone needs to remember that Noel has NEVER made up with anyone he has ever fallen out with (Damon doesn't count because they were never friends in the first place) and that Liam slagged off Sara relentlessly and was pretty disparaging towards Anais. Noel has recently been in the same room as Gene and refused to talk to him (allegedly) and has even blanked him entirely when being on the same plane as him. The. Reunion. Will. Never. Happen. Liam had plans for europe this year. Not sure why he cancelled them but he wanted to play gigs at some of the biggest indoor arenas in europe.

Yeah Liam's also been known to hype up things and be cryptic because he knows we Oasis nerds are going to talk about it and speculate.
My guesses are:
- He's releasing a new album that will be more rock and roll than his last - He's releasing an live record of the DM anniversary tour - They'll release an anthology type of thing for the 30th of WTSMG (without new material)
There won't be any reunion, any gig with the both of them, nothing. I don't believe in it. I think the next time they MIGHT be reunited is, sadly, at Peggy's funeral. And even then, I wouldn't be surprised if Noel made sure Liam and maybe even Paul had left before going. That's how bad I think things are.

Just noticed Familar to Millions is on Prime so stuck it on and the intro is completely different to what I’ve seen before. I had it on VHS back in the day (god I’m old) and it didn’t have this black and white long intro showing the crowd being disorderly outside the stadium and the police getting involved whilst Who Feels Love plays in the background.
Anyone else seen it? Has that bit just been added for the digital release?

Many, many siblings have gone as long if not longer and ended up speaking. I'm not saying it's likely but certainly possible.
In any case looks like something else might be on the horizon which is a good thing.
