None of my friends or acquaintances listens to Oasis or Gallagher brothers, they are all into either metal, or rap, or trap. I am an alien. In your life instead?

I've got mates that were / are into them. They've come with me to various Oasis / Liam shows over the years.
My Dad is a huge Oasis fan, he got me into them, he and I always go together though I have been without him a few times for Oasis shows.

I guess my mother? She got into them and Liam's music because of me.

I'm American, and I was discussing Oasis with a music-savvy friend the other day and he brought up Beady Eye. Definitely the first person I've met IRL who knew that name.

I've got a couple of friends who are into Oasis/Noel, not obsessed fans but they like em In my circle most of them know the hits obviously as well (Wonderwall, DLBIA etc) My sister is a fan too, mostly because of me and my father does not mind em and he's been with me to see Beady Eye/NGHFB

I've got lots of friends who are into the same style of music as Oasis but don't really like Oasis. I grew up in the backlash years which tainted my age groups opinion of them.

I'm convinced that I'm the only person in my whole town under the age of 40 who likes them. Everyone here thinks they're a gangster, they all carry knives, have their tracksuit bottoms around their ankles and talk like they're from Brixton despite all being lame white guys from a sleepy seaside town, all I ever hear is words like blud, sket, brap, ting etc. I'll never forgive my parents for bringing me up in this hellhole lol. I have pretty much no male friends because every guy around here is just such an unbearable bellend. So I have to go to gigs alone, it's pretty easy to meet and get on with people at gigs though so I never end up spending the night alone, but if I want to talk about Oasis with anyone I have to go online unfortunately

Only my sister. We went to Liam's gig together and it was a lot of fun.

Yeah same, pretty much everyone I know is an Oasis fan but I’m English so maybe a bit different.
I’ve spoken to 8 people since the Knebworth announcement who are going and I’m not on social media, so like actually spoken, which I think is a lot considering if was a few days ago and I live in a small town

No one, really, as far as I know. I have a friend, who is a U2 fan, so she saw Noel opening for them and liked him, enough to accompany me to Liam later, to get the "full set", and enjoyed that as well. But, I could not bring her fully over to our side.

As far as my closest friends/relatives go, not really anyone. I had to beg my best friend to try and get Knebworth tickets with me. Hes more into classic rock like Led Zep and Queen, while other friends are more into rap and house/EDM.
My dad is borderline; he had the first three albums before I became a fan in 2002, but not SOTSOG or Masterplan. It’s close but I wouldn’t say he’s a true fan. More that he liked a song or two off each album so got them, as in the 90s basically everyone bought CDs.

My brothers, an ex (who has probably the broadest musical taste of anyone I've ever known) and some acquaintances. But I also know a whole bunch of people who know of the Gallaghers as those funny brothers who can't get along, find them intriguing, and like the songs when they're played, even if they couldn't name an album other than Morning Glory, which is fairly typical of my age group in the USA. Definitely think the fandom skews older here now than in England/UK, at least from what I've seen at solo shows. Not exclusively, but the love for it hasn't been passed down from parents to kids in the same way.

Possibly my wife, but she's just so relieved when it's not Bob Dylan playing, that it's difficult to know if she likes Oasis or just the absence of Bob Dylan.
