I sure as hell hope the US stadium gigs won't have that diabolical "ground seating" nonsense. Looks like some kind of evangelist conference.  I think that's something with law and its been done since the who had their gig issues in Ohio Ebby Calvin 'Nuke' LaLoosh am I right? I don’t know, I do know the U.S. Supreme Court enacted a law requiring the Lord’s Prayer before all concerts…. God bless. |

Dynamic pricing is the standard in the US. Doubt they'd go against the norm there The fact it's the norm in the States is dreadful, thats a real shame. Be interested to see the size of the gaffs they play over there then as surely they're not gonna fill stadiums at $200 a ticket for floor? This is the one thing that’s giving me hope that dynamic pricing won’t completely fuck the US dates over. There simply isn’t enough demand to fill those stadiums at UK pricing. |

I expect to be absolutely appalled by the prices but fuck it, I’ve been saving up for 15 years. |

Me and the Mrs were tempted to go to the States to see them anyway but after flat out refusing to pay £500 each for tickets, this is definitely our preferred option.
Could get flights and a ticket for that

Could get flights and a ticket for that Can you? I never find flights that cheap coming from the US. It costs me usually $1000 per person flight. US concert tickets are usually 175-300, hotel is 300-400$ in most cities. NY has a subway and Chicago a bus but any other city will cost you 100$ for an Uber. If you find some really good prices I think it’s still $1300-1500 each. So more like £1000 Still can be a lovely vacation. Be careful if you’re thinking Airbnb though, they’ve got sketchy as hell here |

Be careful if you’re thinking Airbnb though, they’ve got sketchy as hell here Yeah I flew from London to LA last November for £375 return with British Airways. Assuming tickets are $150-200 it’ll work out more or less the same as a single priced ticket here l. Obviously then there’s hotels, other transport, food, drink etc but you’d have that here too. And I’d rather get a holiday out of it than pay extortionate pricing just for the ticket |

When they announce the us dates? The momentum starts falling down

Someone on the Reddit posted Jambase (like a gig tracking site) that has all of the US dates as listed in the leak with the exact dates, though LA and Mexico fall on the OFF dates instead. I don’t think anyone can add shows to that site so I’d say announcement early next week, on sale a week from now and Friday.

That would be the odd move coz the 2 added Wembley shows are gonna be sold out immediately anyway. It literally would be wasting time while the headlines are (still) hot. They should've announced further tour dates on Monday already to also move away from the pricing topic. |

I don’t think anyone can add shows to that site so I’d say announcement early next week, on sale a week from now and Friday. I strongly believe these sites operate with the same level of information we have, ie. the leaked setlist. We’ll soon find out anyway. |

I've gone back & forth on whether I think these N.American stadium dates are valid.
I'd say the extra Wembley shows being pushed out to late Sept. is a bit of evidence that they might be headed to N.America.
Still puzzled that if the shows are on the calendar, why not announce them already.

They want weekend gigs to draw the most people and tickets right? Gotta make sure it’s done well before football gets going and those late August dates work under that pretense. |

From Billboard How Big Could an Oasis U.S. Tour Be?Of note: - Oasis averaged 12,000 people a gig on DOYS tour in 2008/2009 - granted, this tour saw them play multiple nights at smaller arenas in the UK on that first leg rather than one big stadium show
- Oasis were a far bigger touring act overall in the 2000s than the height of their 1994-1997 success
- Oasis' ticket sales were similar to Green Day in the 90s and 00s: mix of theaters and arenas
- Bands like Blink-182, Green Day and My Chemical Romance are far bigger draw/more lucrative as touring acts now than they were in their prime
- In the United States specifically, Oasis’ catalog was streamed 13.5 million times the week of the reunion announcement; a 150% increase
- Oasis has grossed $45.2 million and sold 1.1 million tickets across 150 reported shows since the release of Definitely Maybe

That 1.1 million tickets across 150 shows must be US only? Crazy they sold about that many tickets in the UK next year.

That 1.1 million tickets across 150 shows must be US only? Crazy they sold about that many tickets in the UK next year. I think it's worldwide but only cites shows that got reported to Pollstar Boxoffice. I'm pretty sure it's missing a good chunk of UK stadium gigs/open air concerts. Oasis played to 52,000 people across three US shows in June of 2005 - NYC, LA, Boston - (drawing about $2.1 million; ticket prices averaged about $25). They've never had a single concert in America gross more than $1 million or attract more than 20,000 people. That will definitely change this time around. The question is, though, by what degree? (Ticket prices being what they are, they could probably earn $2 - $3 million even without playing to more than 20,000 people). However, most of their US shows were far smaller in audience size (closer to 6,000 - 9,000 a gig) and gross amounts ($200,000 - $400,000 a gig). |

SoFi seems to be the current rumor for the LA show so I'm guessing they'll do a half-capacity deal. Macca and Red Hot Chili Peppers did around 40k, Oasis can do the same. If they end up selling out multiple 40k stadiums in America, that would be a massive massive success with those stats in mind.

They want weekend gigs to draw the most people and tickets right? Gotta make sure it’s done well before football gets going and those late August dates work under that pretense. Not necessarily. The NFL schedule is much easier to work around given that it's one game a week and a team may be on the road for multiple weeks in a row. Add to it that both Gillette and MetLife are turf fields, so you could easily turn the field around if you have a Friday night concert and a Sunday game. Definitely easier to schedule than an arena that may have both basketball and hockey schedules to work around, though Gillette also hosts the MLS, which might not yet have its 2025 schedule set. That being said, the question is really if Oasis can sell 60,000 tickets on a mid week night at an NFL stadium, as a weekend date would only work if the team happens to be on the road. Add to that the fact that Gillette has not traditionally had shows past the end of August as another clue that the leaked schedule may be more aspirational than real at the moment. |

I’m assuming weekend shows in America to have better ticket sales. It’s a difficult situation for Saturday gig into Sunday game. MetLife always has either Giants or Jets at home. Rare when both are gone. Who knows. We shall see what happens in a week or so. |

I'd be very surprised if there is no announcement by the middle of the upcoming week. Roll on North America!
