I hope this tour will no way like their DOYS tour back in 2009. I just want them to be on good terms with each other. Maybe a bit off-topic, but when exactly did it start to go really wrong during that tour? I saw them in November 2008 and thought then that they were far better than during the DBTT tour. But maybe I didn't catch the nuances. I also remember that the hype in here was quite big in the summer (?) of 2009 when they added My Big Mouth to the setlist. There was an allegedly ongoing dispute between them about some Pretty Green commercials. It was said that Liam wanted to promote PG for free in their gigs and Noel wasn't having it and he asked for money. Also there was tension about Gordon Smart (The Sun journalist) having access backstage with the band, because he was friends with Noel. Apparently he wrote some hit pieces at that time about a possible breakup and Liam was furious.

Their first falling out was during the recording of the album, so set the tone from there and it got worse. Was only really the last few months where it got really bad but don't think that whole period was fun for anyone.

Oh indeed, I hope Oasis runs a revolution through the US, just have a hard time seeing the Rose Bowl packed. No honestly, it's ridiculous. It holds 90,000 people. The last time Oasis played Los Angeles, they drew 9,298 people out of 11,100 in the reduced capacity set-up at the Staples Center (which normally hold 20,000 for concerts). There's no way in hell that Oasis is 10x more popular in the Los Angeles area now vs 15 years ago. The average ticket price was like $50 - $60 then too. Ticketmaster will undoubtedly have these tickets in the triple and potentially quadruple digit range these days. And that's going to turn off a lot of American fans, especially more casual ones. It's not a full tour, so all surrounding cities will go to the one gig. The reunion hype has already broke American news. It's all over. And Americans love reunions and rock nostalgia. It's not a tired band that has toured there the last 15 tours anymore. It's the once in a lifetime chance to see rock legends, America loves that.

Anyone know what the story with presale is? Nout announced so far. Potentially they might do something with the Def Maybe release you'd imagine but if they didn't announce today and they go on sale this weekend then presumably there isn't one.

The pics looks photoshoped! Anyone can confirm?? Defo photoshopped, even the BTS photos. The shadowing on it is very poorly done. Ultimately, the thing everyone wants to see is them back together, and they fact they can't show that conclusively suggests it's coz it didn't happen. Pretty significant if that's the case (hope i'm wrong though!). Shows that NG basically got worn down by the money on the table and they'll meet for the first time when they start rehearsing. hey defo! Are you for real? You don't need to hope you are wrong, you are wrong.

Does anyone know why there are two different sale times for Ireland the UK? I don't think I've ever seen that happen for a gig before, let alone a gig (or set of gigs) of this magnitude

What did you want? An all out BHN style album cover photo shoot with a huge budget? They don't need to do that. If you've got a tour that's going to generate millions of pounds, why not spend even £10k on a decent video that isn't pixilated videos ripped from YouTube with voice overs from old documentaries. At least get a new quote. Then put out a photo that people can't debate is photoshopped. Feels very cobbled together. Sure but it's Oasis, their team has never been super slick with all this stuff Their lyric videos look like they were cobbled together on some free video editing software with Windows. Why change a habit of a lifetime?

I think everything is arranged in such a way that all of this remains a secret until the very last day. Until a few hours ago, no one was 100% sure that this was happening. You schedule a few UK dates with trusted people: you don’t schedule a concert in Bulgaria where some Bulgarian would immediately brag that Oasis is coming to Bulgaria. You schedule a photoshoot with a trusted photographer, making a video involves a bunch of people - makeup artists, lighting technicians, sound engineers, editors... This is the first day of reunion, relax, we will get more photos, videos, dates...

How many people from England are gonna be going for the Dublin tickets an hour early, with the thought of just going to that gig because you can travel to Dublin cheaper than London sometimes.....orrrr they'll get a Dublin ticket, then flog it for a fortune if they get tickets for England. There must be a good reason that they've thought about that I haven't, otherwise it's gonna be worse chaos than it already would be and lots of Irish people are gonna get shafted

It seems a bit odd to have the opportunity to photograph the brothers together (something that seemed so unlikely to many) and then publish output that looks photoshopped. It's two people standing together shot against a backdrop. It is you creating in your head that it "looks photoshopped". I doubt anyone thought they had too have a newspaper with todays date on it and be sitting on each others shoulders for having a photo taken that people wouldn't have conspiracy theories about. If you need further evidence of the two having been in the same room (lol) just have the video on endless repeat The thoughts I have about things are created in my head, yes. Well done. Others seem to have had the same thought on this topic so seemingly I'm not alone. That picture didn't come out of the camera like that, by the way. It's been edited. For some stylistic purposes which is totally fine. I just think the style choice is strange in the circumstances. No one is talking about a 'conspiracy' besides you. If they had photoshopped the picture, that would have been fine (imo) also as it's just a pic for the day of the announcement. It's not like they haven't done it before (the heathen chemistry era floating head pic quickly comes to mind).

Why does Noel look so sad in those pics? He’s a middle-aged bloke, we all look like that.

Then they can have a trip to Ireland and still visit England if they want,it costs about £30 on a plane. I bet half of this forum will have an itchy trigger finger at about 8am on Saturday and get caught up in the madness and start trying to get Dublin tickets.

Bittersweet... I'm really happy that they're obviously talking again (although Joey and Johnny Ramone were in the same band without talking but, usually that doesn't happen). But, as I guessed in an earlier post, it's just a small UK tour. So, for us outside the UK, it remains a "let's see where it goes" situation. But I'm happy for people in the UK, I hope every Brit from this forum can score a ticket!
Also, that picture does seem photoshopped, which is a shame. I would have liked to have a picture where they feel like they're together in the same room... baby steps I guess...

All hotels are already sold out or rooms are at eye watering prices. Food in Dublin is no cheaper than London and you’ve got the added air fare tickets. Summer from Dublin to London isn’t the cheapest at the best of times, and there’s two less daily flights from Dub - Heathrow next year too. You’d be wasting your time trying to get Dublin tickets if you’re in the U.K.

Small complaint, but I wish the tour had a better title than "Live '25". "Don't Look Back in Anger" or "Live Forever" would've been great names.
