Shame the Stone Roses aren’t knocking about. That would be a good support act. No, it’ll be dead boring. |

Primal Scream have a new album coming out, so I'd expect them to be playing festivals etc next summer. Not sure if they're still connected to Ignition these days, but they were fairly recently at least.

The greatest band of ALL time by a mile, boring?🤦🏻♂️ The Beatles are not boring. I love The Beatles, easily my 3rd favourite band ever behind The Stone Roses and Oasis but I genuinely don’t think any band has even come close to The Stone Roses debut as the greatest LP of all time and “I am the resurrection”, “she bangs the drums” are the 2 best songs of all time. Yes the Beatles wrote more amazing songs than The Stone Roses but with both bands at their peak then The Stone Roses easily come out on top. Obviously this is only my opinion so not expecting anyone else to agree with me. |

In all seriousness, I could see the US dates having two openers: the first being some sort of legacy UK act to hook anglophiles/Brits coming over to see gigs and the second being a newer US based alternative kinda act to get the more casual/on-the-fence music fans in the door.

Well, after watching this, Linkin Park idea doesn't sound so off: WonderPark
Though some might say that this sounds more LP then they do now.  |

Beggars can’t be choosers but I’ve seen Cage before and they’re boring. All showmanship yet no songs. Ironically saw them between Spoon and Beck, either one would have been a better choice.
But who cares it’s the big fucking O baby

Not a bad choice. Cage The Elephant have a couple of good tunes and are a decent live act. Should be alright for 45 min or something.

But who cares it’s the big fucking O baby To each their own, but imo, they have two albums that I consider genuinely great (Melophobia/Tell Me I’m Pretty); I don’t skip a single song only either and they are a massive live band. Very pleased with this news. |

Confirming what Liam said on twitter some time ago... www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/news/oasis-support-uk-ireland-shows-richard-ashcroft-b2629638.html?fbclid=IwY2xjawF8OIJleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHXVN7Zgel2TWPpiBc9VdVM-g7rXq7gQnU4tjQoyv5Uodfm5cDKfRk98bzg_aem_iEbfPTGxBMStFWu-RAK4EwOasis support acts for UK and Ireland tour revealed Exclusive: Source close to the band confirms two opening acts, both who have a long history with the Gallagher brothers, for their sold-out 2025 tour Oasis will be supported for their UK and Ireland shows next year by former The Verve frontman and solo artist Richard Ashcroft, and indie rock band Cast, The Independent can confirm. Sources close to the Manchester-formed rock band said the two acts have been booked to open for them on all of their scheduled UK and Ireland dates next year, as part of their hugely anticipated reunion tour. Singer Liam Gallagher previously teased the news from his X/Twitter account last week, following the announcement of the North America and Australia legs of the Oasis ‘25 tour. An official announcement is expected to go out next week. The Independent understands that Cast will perform first, followed by Ashcroft, then Oasis. Ashcroft is a longtime friend of both Liam and his older brother, Noel, who supported his band ( known simply then as Verve) back in 1993. Noel wrote the track “Cast No Shadow” from Oasis’s second album (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, as a tribute to the Lancashire-born singer. Placed between the band’s first No 1 single “Some Might Say” and their rock anthem “She’s Electric”, the ballad includes the lyrics: “Bound with all the weight of all the words he tried to say/ Chained to all the places that he never wished to stay.” “[Ashcroft] always seemed to me to not be very happy about what was going on around him, almost trying too hard,” Noel once said in an interview with Select magazine. “I always felt he was born in the wrong place, and he was always trying to say the right things, but they came out wrong.” Ashcroft said he was honoured to have inspired the song. However, asked by The Guardian in 2010 if “casting no shadow” meant he was a supernatural being, he responded: “I can’t work out if he means I’m a witch, vampire or just incredibly emaciated and thin cos, you know, I haven’t really got enough body mass to cast a shadow.” After The Verve’s third album Urban Hymns and the accompanying single “The Drugs Don’t Work” topped the UK charts in 1977, Noel said he was “the happiest man in the world”. That same year, he called Ashcroft a “genius” and suggested their comparative lack of success to Oasis was because “circumstances worked against them”. The Verve went through their third breakup in 2009 and have not reformed since; Ashcroft has enjoyed a successful solo career, releasing six top 10 albums including 2016’s These People. In 2021, he shared his sixth solo record Acoustic Hymns Vol 1, a collection of new versions of songs spanning both his solo career and his time in The Verve; Liam joined Ashcroft for a duet of “C’mon People (We’re Making It Now)” from his debut solo album, Alone With Everybody. Meanwhile, Cast were formed in Liverpool in 1992 by John Power, following his departure from The La’s, and Peter Wilkinson, formerly of the band Shack. They rose to fame amid the Britpop scene of the mid-Nineties and released records including their 1995 debut, All Change,and 1999’s Magic Hour. They split in 2001 after a poor reception to their fourth album, Beetroot. The band reformed nine years later and released their fifth record, Troubled Times. Their seventh album, Love is the Call, was released in February this year and achieved a No 22 spot in the UK charts. Gallagher is said to have described watching Cast live as a “religious experience” in an interview with the band for the Daily Record. They previously supported Oasis during their historic Knebworth shows in 1996, along with The Charlatans, Manic Street Preachers, and Dreadzone. Oasis tour the UK and Ireland from 4 July 2025 to 28 September 2025, with all dates already sold out. They will be supported in North America by US rock band Cage the Elephant; a support act for the Australia shows is yet to be announced. |

I don't know much about CAST. I saw them supporting Liam during the summer and thought they were good but must have a proper listen to their stuff.
Buzzing to see Ashcroft.

I'd like that. I've always wanted to see and especially hear Ashcroft live and Cast were great fun this year with Liam.
