Thinking about it, it's easy for us to say "spread them out more" but obviously there is a reason that isn't a viable option, I'm sure Liam would massively be in favour of that himself. Guessing the window of dates they can fit these tours in are very tight and you just have to go with whatever is available. Something needs to be done though or he's going to really mess up his voice in the long run. When I do just one gig with my tribute band I can feel the strain on my vocals, they are bloody hard songs to sing in that style. Don't know how he does that many gigs in that short period of time to be honest. guess a lot of it comes down to money, must cost a lot to accomadate/move all those people and equipment and off days will be burning through profits from the gigs at a fair pace. It'll be question of whether it's more cost effective to take the occasional hit from a cancelled gig or factor in a more spread out tour. But then they might still get cancelled gigs anyway.

Out of all the bands I follow and see play live, it seems like only Liam continues to have these issues. Maybe its the flu or maybe its just being old and his style. I'm definitely always worried when he comes over for USA dates. Overall I've been extremely fortunate, no vocal issues the 11 times I saw Oasis and only once post breakup did Liam have a vocal issue and I won't lie, it was horrific. I'd rather he had walked off then gut through an hour show. I think Liam will never cancel a major city it seems like, places like New York and Los Angeles seem to always be guaranteed

You can only assume that someone has looked at it but I would have thought the cost to go back and do it again or cancel all together is just as expensive.

That’s a major Oasis/Gallagher brother city.

It wasn’t until the rescheduled shows with Ashcroft I finally seen him, after 3 cancellations I'm sure it was worth the wait! Ashcroft killed it when I saw him with just an acoustic guitar.

I don’t think anyone going to any of the Euro tour dates need be any more or any less worried than usual. His vocal condition is transient and there doesn’t seem to be any particular triggers for it. I’ve witnessed myself 2 gigs on the bounce a few times and they were some of the best I’ve been to. Liam is Liam and thems the dice.
March 6th Aberdeen, special guest on a dance show tour? I’m hoping this is a mistake. Sorry I don’t know any more than this.

This does not bode well for the Paris gig: last date of the tour on Feb 21st, he's got gigs on Feb 16, 18 & 20...
I'm not saying the Paris gig will be canceled but I'm not expecting his voice to be fine with this schedule.

Not related to this voice talk but regarding how he sings Columbia. Why doesn't he ever sing the "This is peculiar, we don't want to fool ya" line? He did that like once in that Prague warm-up gig, and even that was like the first time since the 90's.
He even sings the second verse of Acquiese now, so I do find this odd.

To be honest, all I'm worried about is him cancelling the Vienna show. I don't care if his voice is shit, the gig would be great nevertheless.

I am really worried for Vienna. Back in 2011 or 2012 I had tickets for Beady Eye at the same venue and it was canelled the day before. I hope He will make it.

wouldn't be surprised, if he'd cancel the tour after struggeling through the Amsterdam and Brussels gigs - maybe "try" Milan and Paris, but don't think, the gigs in Germany, Vienna or Zürich are very important for Debby and the management

Giving me flashbacks of Pearl Jam cancelling (postponing) the second London gig in 2018 because of Eddies voice (Eddie even mentioning Liam at the first London show when joking about his voice problems).
They did reschedule and come back with a vengeance at the end of the tour though.
(Let me know if someone wants my unused grey tourshirt in M from the stockholmshow in trade for a white tourshirt in M.I will never wear the grey one. Stupid me. Will ofc pay for shipping)

Bonehead and the Backing Singers are in town They all travelled overnight straight after the abandoned gig so we can’t assume anything from this. Liam travels separately. Crew are setting up tho which is promising.
