Was talking to a friend about this the other day, I wonder if Andy would turn down a reunion? Assuming Guigs ain't coming back, Andy would be the other choice, but he seems really happy with Ride and his own stuff. Like, content and satisfied. I have to wonder if he'd even bother with the circus. If they ever get back I think Noel would demand every member to fully commit to the band and not treat it like a side project until the next Ride album. If they come back as a touring band it could work but not if they return as a proper band. Personally I'd like a mix of the original band (90's and 00's) and new members that could bring something new. Nah- anyone joining the Gallaghers on an Oasis reunion would be on per diems and just be in the background. Not like Oasis are gonna reform and Andy Bell and Alan White are gonna be sent to do the press for it. It'll be a cash grab- both gallaghers making the profits, anyone else on a session fee |

It’s true .. oasis are the top of gig lists for agents .. behind the scenes it’s thawing ..the money , demand, curiosity and age will start to creep in and they’ll be curious to see just what they can do.. the only reason oasis split and haven’t got back is quite clear (NG wife) he looks a totally different character on stage like the old Noel .. the divorce maybe interesting reading It may be interesting but it won't make for good reading for fans of Noel. Sounds like she's been a right cow. |

Alright I hate that this thread has gone where it has and the fact that I'm going to ask this (and I'm sure I'll regret it and this thread that originally had NOTHING to do with any of this will get locked) but, other than Liam saying it, how are you guys so sure that Sara has/had anything to do with Oasis breaking up and/or not reforming? |

Agreed.
Feel like this is the album I've heard him be least vocal about. He's normally banging on about the new record being his best, songs he's really proud of etc.
This album has been a bit of a damp squib. Underwhelming in every way.
I wouldn't be surprised if the ongoing stuff in his personal life has affected him and this is a case of going through the motions of an album just because it's expected and what he's grown accustomed to.
I hope he gets his mojo back. Or does a nice little reunion EP and tour with Liam.

Assuming Guigs ain't coming back, Andy would be the other choice, but he seems really happy with Ride and his own stuff. Like, content and satisfied. I have to wonder if he'd even bother with the circus. He has already said he's up for a reunion. By rights Gem and Andy should have first refusal. Bonehead left Oasis after all, they didn't. I think we could take Gem as a lock in. Andy is trickier because Russ is so good and him and Noel seem to gel well. But if it's an Oasis reunion, it should be Andy, which would be tough on Russ. Though I don't imagine it would be set up as a permanent band, I can't imagine Noel would want to be tied back to that at all. So would likely keep his solo thing going so maybe could keep his own band for that? So is there room for Bonehead? As guest appearances maybe, though he doesn't exactly add a lot musically like say Jonny Marr does as a guest. But obviously it's about the feels. Depends how him and Noel are I guess. It's safe to say none of Liam's band would be anywhere near it. Overall though I think people are setting themselves up for disappointment, Noel seems too happy with what he's doing to get involved in the circus, and a circus is probably the last thing he needs in his life. Since speculating is fun though, if it does happen I'd imagine it'd be a one year thing they'd market as going out on their own terms or something, with maybe one album. It should all be on Noel's terms, no-one else should be allowed to even suggest a tamborine track. Noel writes everything. He's got his mojo back and I dread any comeback being ruined by the usual terrible tracklisting choices and 'band democracy'. Interestingly Noel alluded to it in that interview this year where he talked about regrets with each album and said the problem with later albums was everyone wanting to write once Liam did. |

Well at least now I know not to take anything else you said seriously 😝 They'd probably ask me before they ask Alan White, and I can't drum. Gem is far more of a cert than Bonehead I'd say, no idea where you get the idea he's playing minimal parts. |

Interestingly Noel alluded to it in that interview this year where he talked about regrets with each album and said the problem with later albums was everyone wanting to write once Liam did. Pretty sure he encouraged them to come forward with songs and given Noel’s output from 1998-2005 That’s hardly surprising. For Oasis to have produced better quality records would have required Noel to take 5 years between albums in that period. |

When Gordon Smart, who was close enough to Noel, says he now thinks Oasis will get back because of domestic issues now clearing the way i think it's pretty obvious what he is alluding to. That kind of confirmed it for me. There's enough evidence if you follow it closely. Put it this way if they were still together there was zero chance and now there is a chance. Whether you want to interpret that as she was controlling it then so be it. |
