Let’s put it to a vote.
Noel scrapping his acoustic album for a Rock album was the first sign…. then Liam on twitter hinting at it… and the recent Reddit Rumors…. It’s happening, lads.

The way Noel’s been recently, he’s saying stuff that I get the impression are things he thinks will get up Liam’s wick. And if he wanted it, he wouldnt be wanting to piss Liam off.
As weve said for generations…..itll happen if Noel ever decides he fancies it. And sadly, methinks the odds are slender.

Can't believe it will happen.
Noel wouldn't be able to look Weller in the face again.

Given that Noel's giving off 'divorced dad' energy recently and with added health issues and gammon ramblings, he doesn't exactly seem primed to give us anything special. He's recently come off as the most cynical grumpy man ever (with understandable personal reasons), and that's saying something for him. Even if he did get the band back together, his attitude is hardly conducive to a worthwhile reunion.
I miss the Noel of 2017, fit and healthy, he was genuinely excited about the Who Built The Moon album (regardless of what the naysayers say about it) and performance wise, the High Flying Birds were never better. That kind of thing reflected in his music, even if some here didn't like it, it was vibrant and colourful rather than beige and dour. That's the Noel we need for a reunion. Having the ambition to go back and dream it all up again, go and prove a point and write the best Oasis album since the 90s.
Liam's the opposite. Smashing it live, fairly prolific in the studio and seemingly loving life. Seems like the reverse scenarios for Noel and Liam from a decade ago, what a difference ten years makes.

Can't believe it will happen. Noel wouldn't be able to look Weller in the face again. As close as he is to PW, one would hope he’ll ultimately enjoy - on some level - looking at his brother and nephews in the face again! |

I don't know, Noel seems to be going through it and wouldn't a reunion be another source of huge stress?

Liam said something on Twitter yesterday about retiring as a solo artist. Could be ramblings but feels different this time for some reason…

I wouldn't read too much into it. Yeah, I saw that and there's no way he would retire as a solo artist as he would get bored too quickly. |

I think he makes a good point - There’s an opening with both brothers as it seems like they just so happened to naturally reach the conclusion of their solo careers at the same time. Nothing planned for either Gallagher next summer. Noel’s divorce has gone through. And with Liam’s excellent singing, and Bonehead feeling better, now is the time to go for the reunion. It’s happening, lads and lasses…. x. x.com/OasisPodcast/status/1825126278468399224 |

If it’s going to happen I feel it’s now or never.
At the start of 2023 Noel, really for the first time, made some positive comments about the prospect of reuniting with Liam again. This as I remember caused some reunion speculation at the time. Now if that did start the wheels in motion, by the time talks occurred and agreements were made, realistically a tour or number of shows were unlikely to happen until 2025 due to appropriate venues needing to be booked. I’m no expert in concert promotion, but since the pandemic every man and his dog have been touring so I’d imagine show venues would need to be booked well in advance.
So reasons why 2025 makes sense:
It’s now 15 years since the split, nothing worse than a bad splitting and reforming a couple of years later, a reasonable period had now passed for a “reunion” to happen.
Age, the brothers are in their 50’s, they are both still match fit but this won’t last for ever.
WTSMG will be 30 years old. I’ve always felt a reunion tour would be better with some purpose rather than just a greatest hits show. A WTSMG tour would work well, obviously Liams in the middle of his DM shows and Noel supported U2 on their Joshua Tree tour and saw first hand how an album tour could work. WTSMG is the bands most commercially successful album both in the UK and abroad and would work well played life amongst some of the bands other greatest hits.
Both Liam and Noel have had successful solo careers, 2025 seems to be a natural opportunity for both to do something with Oasis again.
Money, lives shows, particularly large ones make a fortune these days.
Whether or not a reunion would be a good thing or not is up for debate. I not so sure myself but I guess we’ll see over the coming months what happens

It’s right album to do it for, and the next big milestone is 40yrs, so even if you did since forming that would still be 2031. Which we all know is too late. Noel’s nearing 60 as it is, and it’s about the last time they’ll be able to pull it off without it all looking pathetic. But what will be will be. |

I get what people are saying about the WTSMG anniversary making sense as a time to reform, but at the same time it's not like a reunion has to be for that (so it doesn't have to fall on a milestone anniversary of it) – the "now or never" thing doesn't quite apply in my opinion, there's no reason it couldn't be 2026 instead.
The gigs will be a huge deal anyway, and anyone going knows they would get all the hits from the first two albums regardless, so it's not like they need that to promote it.
Generally album anniversary tours are there to give acts a bit of a boost in sales when they've been touring consistently and need something to tempt people into going again. An Oasis reunion won't fall under that.
Even if it does happen in 2025 I'd hope it isn't too focused on WTSMG. While Liam's DM tour has been fun, there's something about the total nostalgia of it all that doesn't sit right with me. I feel like bands shouldn't be trying to recreate a specific era. I've always thought the reunion will happen eventually anyway, there comes a point in the equation where the money on offer is too much to turn down really.

The Oasis reunion is completely pointless and void, in my eyes, unless they bring back the 'WHAT FOR' at the end of Slide Away.
