GB News host Eamonn Holmes has offered his scathing verdict on the announcement of an Oasis reunion tour, as the iconic Brit-Pop band set the rumours straight this morning.
After splitting in 2009, brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher revealed that they will be touring the world in 2025, starting in the UK in July.
The band are set to play at Wembley Stadium and has also confirmed shows in Cardiff, Manchester, Edinburgh and Dublin.
Reacting to the news, Eamonn Holmes claimed that if the band “were in his back garden” he would “pull the blind down”, declaring he “couldn’t care less” about the tour.

Eamonn told GB News: “You’re going to turn up at a concert where everybody’s standing, they’re all going to be drunk, sozzled out of their head. You won’t be able to hear a word that comes from the stage.
“I couldn’t care less. Everybody gets stoned and drunk and they actually can’t remember if they had a good time.”
Co-host Andrew Pierce was in agreement with Eamonn, telling the panel: “I had to wrap my brain to think of a song that I like.
“And I came up with Don’t Look Back In Anger because it’s the only one I could really think of. I’m very pleased for people, but I’m not interested in going to see them.”

Expressing her excitement for the band’s reunion, host Dawn Neesom said she’ll be “in the queue for tickets” and called Eamonn a “bah humbug” for his remarks.

Siding with Dawn, host Isabel Webster claimed that the tour will be “amazing” with the crowds “singing the songs with them”.
She added: “I was young in the 90s, I wasn’t drinking my way through it. And I remember all of it just for being great music.”
Dawn agreed with Isabel, joking: “I was drinking my way through it but I still remember it!”
Turning the discussion to whether Oasis may play Glastonbury next year, Andrew questioned if the brothers will “still be talking by then” as they are known for “spectacularly falling out”.

Eamonn agreed, telling his fellow hosts: “Apparently they hadn’t met until the photo call for this announcement nine days ago.”

Prices for tickets have not yet been confirmed, but all prices including Platinum and VIP packages will be announced on Thursday 29 August, two days before going on sale.
