Imagine if there was a single to go with the announcement 😲 No chance! I doubt they've even met up, probably a phone call or something. Cant see there being a full band press conference tomorrow. I think it will just be a poster of the logo with a Morning Glory image as such wth dates of gigs on it. very realistic, hoping you're wrong as this entire scenario is proving anything can happen, but you're probably right *except, they must have met up. surely a fact everyone's said historically but not seeing it mentioned here lately ... their mum is really old too. So they could've met all together, surely. It's a family after all - a mum and her boys would meet BEFORE a commercial entity creates advertisements etc

They have something to announce on Tuesday, and it's not at all impossible that they're just riding the wave of rumors and now are using the whole reunion story to better promote whatever it is that they're going to announce on Tuesday. And they can always distance themselves from it and say that none of them ever mentioned a reunion. Exactly what I said earlier in the thread. You wouldn't extinguish the rumours with a release coming out in a few days You would ride it out and then say "we never mentioned a reunion, that's the papers" Actually, at this point a ‘simple’ basic irrelevant non reunion announcement would be a devastated PR move - the fanbase would be so deflated, fans couldn’t trust their favorite band or band members again, industry insiders would have their reputations ruined, and the band as a brand would take a massive hit.

THE IDEA OF LIAM SINGING MEANINGUL NOEL LYRICS AGAIN THE IDEA OF NOEL WRITING SONGS INSPIRED FOR LIAM AGAIN

The REAL reunion would be Noel and Liam recording any sort of new music with Owen Morris as the producer! This. I won't be seeing them live anyway, so new music would be more exciting. Liam can still sing them, but can Noel still write for Oasis...

According to the Sun it’s the High Flying Birds plus Liam. No Bonehead or anyone else Well it half makes sense. Gem and Chris are nailed on really. Both ex oasis, BE and current HFB. The sun might just be going off this alone. The only real area of debate is the bassist. There's only really Andy to choose from in terms of Ex Oasis. If for whatever reason he's not in, then I suppose they're gonna look at Russ. Would still like Bone involved, he has played bass before. Or they could have 3 guitars, Liam's outfit does. Who knows, maybe Bonehead isn't even up for it. But if he was, I'd imagine Liam would want him in and is very close to him. If he's not involved, even some appearances on stage, I'd say it's one of 3 reasons 1. Noel doesn't want him in, 2. Bonehead doesn't want to do it. 3. They're planning on actually making music and not just a nostalgia tour and just want a 5 piece of top musicians to make music with.

In the same way that Sharrock was never part of Oasis but still played for them. Not that it would make any sense.

According to the Sun it’s the High Flying Birds plus Liam. No Bonehead or anyone else Bonehead has to at least feature, even as a special guest. Liam has included him and he’s made a massive difference. And Bonehead just recovered from a bout of cancer.

The article just says that no other original members will feature and it will NGHFB plus Liam. The HFB plus Liam isn’t a surprise. I’ve been saying for awhile if it happened Russ would be on bass and the rest of the band played with oasis at some point or other anyway. Bonehead not being involved would be a surprise but it’s quite possible he doesn’t want to commit to it. It could be a very big commitment. Much bigger than anything he’s been doing with Liam. He might not be up for it for whatever reason.

Back then they were already broken up I think. And Andy is doing great stuff with Ride, that I really doubt, that he would leave them now. Touring next summer with OASIS and being in Ride isn't mutually exclusive I know I know, but I don't know the working schedule of future plans of Ride, so my guess was, that RIDE is Andys top priority right now. Sure maybe he will be back and I would like that, cause Andy was great.

This may be a more unpopular opinion but the reason I'd prefer Alan White over any other drummer is because honestly the image of the band would resonate more to me than the actual music being played if I was to go and watch them live.
As in I'd much rather see Whitey, Guigsy and Bonehead on stage with Noel and Liam, even if Bonehead is only playing his barre chords throughout the whole set as opposed to a better musician like Gem playing "technically better". I guess the recording side of things is a different discussion.

I'd be surprised if bonehead isn't involved. He liked Noels IG post alongside Debbie.

People always say “Don’t believe the Sun” but it’s been pretty obvious they have a link to Noel or his people.

Is it possible they have already recorded something together?
It’s not like they need to be in the same room anymore like back in the day. The HFB’s could easily lay down the nuts and bolts with a guide vocal and have LG do his bit somewhere else entirely.

Bonehead will be offered the tour, it's madness to think anything else.

When someone said NGHFB + Liam I imagined Jeremy Stacey on drums and that fucking dude who played guitar on first NGHFB tour 😂

Bonehead could still come out for a few songs like with Liam - as a guest, without him "being in Oasis again"
Doubt Noel would stop Bonehead from being on stage with them

The HFB’s could easily lay down the nuts and bolts with a guide vocal and have LG do his bit somewhere else entirely. It's not impossible at all Noel has his own studio, so they could well have recorded there. As you say, Liam could've done his parts elsewhere, or even slipped un-noticed into Noel's studio. You're not getting into Noel's studio unless he wants you to and in his circle, so I'm sure they could've recorded something with nobody leaking anything. I'd be very surprised though. If there is a reunion, it's probably just a nostalgia tour to pay for Noel's divorce. At least for now anyway, if things start looking bright, then I think theres a chance of music

I’m genuinely as thrilled/ecstatic as one could be and will absolutely be in attendance no matter the cost, but I’m not fucking into the idea of having Russ (HFB’s bass player) on that stage. At all.

Can't imagine someone plucks the bass with their fingers on stage with Oasis. Not that there's anything wrong with it, many great bassists do, but in Oasis? Nahhh
