There would be way too much money to be made in a huge global tour for that.

And why not? If they do reform, as many people should get the chance to see them as possible. 

I'm fully behind it. Timing it with the (What's the Story) Morning Glory? anniversary would be great; put all the bad vibes away and celebrate one of the most iconic British bands ever. Get everyone back; Gem and Andy can play on the tunes that were released in their era, Bonehead and Guigsy for theirs. Do Glastonbury. Do River Plate. Do Knebworth. Do it all. Then take a few years off and both come back to their solo careers rejuvenated, ready to make music on their new-found throne of cash. Think of all the Monster Munch you could buy, Noel!

After the Noel interview it’s made me think that Liam’s reputation has dipped a bit because of him lashing out, in my opinion. It does make me side with Noel more on this one. Feels like Liam likes winding the fans up sometimes

This is it, guys, thread over




(but I think Liam is also Jimmy in his own way)

The one that got me was back in 2014 (I think).

Liam you wind up merchant.

The brothers are playing all of us.

They deeply understand that the feud aspect, or at the very least the perception of a feud in the papers/online - is the value of interest here. It keeps us talking about them, streaming the songs, speculating if and when.

However, objectively speaking, this long coveted feud aspect of the band could be worth more than the music aspect in terms of brand and marketing.

They don't even need to coordinate this aspect, it's been their default MO since '93. They know this game well. And even if somehow they were in contact directly or indirectly - they wouldn't allow the public any inkling of this possibility as it would literally tank the edginess of the brand overnight.

People don't want a reunion to see and hear 'the songs' played. They want to witness the brothers in the vicinity of each other. And that is ma$$ive.

This is why both of them are coy/shitting themselves around planning because they both know they get one last crack at monetising the Ferrari. Neither wants to take responsibility for fear of fumbling.

"We don't speak" is the always their first answer. And rightly so. People still actually believe them.

Do people need a little time to wake up, wake up?

I feel like you're projecting cynicism here. Interviewers ask him this question, he answers. He's not bringing it up on his own.

That sounds a lot like something Liam would say. Now unless you've met either of them, you can't know how they are no matter what the other says.

We should all keep our heads cold with this whole thing and realize they're both throwing shit at each other and we're debating who's the biggest thrower and who's the biggest victim of that shit throwing contest. They're grown men, in their fucking fifties! Not two monkeys in a zoo throwing feces at each other for our amusement. They should keep all of this private and call us when they've sorted things out, if ever. Until then, we should all reserve judgment (I'm also talking to my past self here), let them play in their feces and enjoy the music... otherwise, fuck them.

he definitely posted it after fa cup final. No doubt drunk. Didn't realise he'd deleted it lol. No wonder he hasn't tweeted anything since theCL final haha.

Fair enough, I only saw it after cup final. Looked legit.

You are really talking nonsense! You must know very little to come to such a conclusion! There are a billion examples that prove they are estranged.
One that comes to mind is stopping Liam from using footage of his live performances of Oasis songs for his two movies As it Was and Knebworth, even though Live Forever's live performance was a tribute to Taylor Hawkins after his sudden death. It proves Noel's deep hatred for Liam. Like Liam said Oasis songs are his too but Noel prevents him from using them in his own documentaries !
There is also the whole family aspect with Sara Macdonald having fun insulting Liam on her Instagram and Liam trying to threaten her by contacting his niece Anais to tell her to warn her mother-in-law not to continue. Of course, according to you, this is the typical behavior of a loving family...
Sara even did an interview saying she suffered because of the harassment from Liam and his fans, felt threatened, and considered suing him.
They themselves willingly described the few times they have seen/spoken to each other since the separation of the group. At the end of 2012, their mother made sure for them to send each other a message to wish each other a happy new year, if I remember correctly. They saw each other physically in 2014 at a Manchester City match, Liam was drunk.

There were even legal proceedings between the brothers. I think you're getting into a paranoid bad trip. Brothers who no longer speak to each other is common, especially in the context of a rock band which invigorates tensions.

That's some tinfoil hat stuff.
