Let's just hope it's not for show.. I cannot fathom these two of all people pretending to be happy for show. On reflection, it was a stupid comment.

Australia as well, we certainly need them more than anywhere else in demand, they haven’t toured here since 2005, but having said that I do still pray that everyone will have their chance to see the band. I think Liam's behaviour in 1998 soured things for Oz. Was 2005 the only time they went back after that? I know Beady Eye were playing Newtown Sydney when I was living there around 2014. Yes, both brothers have come numerous times on their own, and with what was left of oasis, I thankfully saw Liam during his last tour, but it was the last time with the band still intact, and only the third.

I just rewatched their interview with Cat Deeley from 2002 or whenever it was. It's always just so lovely seeing them laughing together. Hopefully we'll get a joint interview soon. That is good, when Liam forgets his age and Noel corrects him.

That is good, when Liam forgets his age and Noel corrects him. The best part is that happened in at least two or three separate interviews. A running theme.

Be truthful, did anyone think it would be this big?
I was too young to experience the 90s and have no reference point. I've been staggered to the point expectations have lowered to 'miracle' if I got a ticket tomorrow morning. Even this forum, jeez, a month ago it was dead. Given the worldwide attention this got, it's a mixture of pride and bemusement that something that never strayed from the minds of all us dedicated posters for 15 years is international news.

The magnitude of this makes our contributions here over the years feel odd. Given the worldwide attention this got, it's a mixture of pride and bemusement that something this small community all holds close to our hearts is international news. I thought something like the 2009 stadium tour was possible. But the hype is beyond that. Three albums in the top 5, three singles in the top 20. All over TikTok. Every "Content Creator" has been making oasis references since Tuesday! It's been absolutely insane. I got into oasis around the time Stop the Clocks came out so like you, too young for the 90s!

Same, I thought it would be business as usual. Maybe an announcement equal to that of the split, big news, certainly for those who care but also a lot of indifference with none of their albums shooting up the charts. And people get on with their lives. Now we're back to 90s level hype. Even my mum brought it up unprompted in a conversation on the phone and she doesn't know anything about them!

Beautiful x I love that they’re both wearing black, I only wear black; despite having many colorful clothes. OCD, it’s a problem…. God bless.

Just been down my local and everyone is talking about it, the kids at cricket training are all talking about it ffs. Get in my car to leave put 5LiveSportsExtra on the radio. They're talking about them on the US Open tennis commentary. Turn it to 5Live, they're doing Oasis puns with footballers. Go to TalkShite, they're using Oasis songs when they come back from the breaks. It's inescapable, certain things feel like it's early summer 96' again. I knew it would be big but this is through the roof.

For me nothing beats that silly moment where Noel gets asked what the original hook of DLBIA before Liam had suggested “so Sally can wait”. Noel isnt sure and Liam starts singing “soooo, Jim’ll Fix It” to the tune of DLBIA. Noel almost cries laughing. It’s just precious 😂

I actually wasn't, I saw them plenty and it will be great for those that haven't seen them before. However, my 18 year old step daughter loves them and really wants us to go. So I'm going to have a go for the cheap seats 😂

Given the worldwide attention this got, it's a mixture of pride and bemusement that something that never strayed from the minds of all us dedicated posters for 15 years is international news. As I said earlier in the thread (I think), these 15 years have done them good. I was too young in 2009 but the way it was described by those who experienced it, they looked like one of those past their prime dinosaur bands who go on the road to play the hits and no one wants to hear the new tunes (although, to be fair they were still getting top 10 singles), plus it felt miserable for the actual members. The absence has elevated them to classic status, but at the same time a new generation has come through and whatever you may think about their solo careers they've both kept a dignified, serious approach to producing music and going on the road to play it So the energy's still there, there's excitement from the people and those first two albums have now become staples, plus there's still a void when it comes to rock bands, the new ones just don't generate the same kind of movement in terms of cultural influence, in a way you could say Oasis were the last, although the likes of Arctic Monkeys or even Muse came close at some point Coldplay obviously get the numbers but there's a different feel to them I mean, when you get Taylor Swift fans fearing for her records you're onto something...

There’s several on here that are suprised by this return.. I don’t think some realise not only the size of the band but their cultural impact , they’ve wrote the biggest songs of the last 30 years .. read too many articles downplaying their size and achievements and record sales, the media never wanted them to sell millions so downplay it. Sales wise wonderwall alone is in double figures!, oasis in the uk are massive, they are on a scale to the fab 4 , they are the biggest international band in Japan, South America huge ,Europe and Australia huge , America people think they some of mini band, they are not. They have shifted 100 million records worldwide , I’ve never seen anything as big as they were in the 90s … now they are back.. these dates are just the start
