Oasis reunion is a definitely maybe as Noel and Liam Gallagher’s feud cools off

Must read

The Manchester band, whose rock anthems and swagger heralded the arrival of the Britpop movement along with bands such as Blur, Suede, The Verve and Pulp, are rumoured to have been lined up to play 10 gigs at Wembley Stadium.

If it happens, the Gallagher brothers will overtake US superstar Taylor Swift who played the venue eight times this year as part of her billion dollar-grossing Eras tour.

Noel has remained silent since the rumours were first aired in The Sunday Times, but Liam didn’t exactly hose down the speculation on Sunday.

On social media site X, Liam said he “had not heard a peep” about the reunion, before teasingly noting he didn’t like being referred to as the “former Oasis singer”.

“I never did like that word FORMER,” he tweeted.

Noel and Liam have gone on to forge successful solo careers since Oasis broke up in 2009, but they have never reached the heights, commercially or artistically, of their former band whose hits included Live Forever, Supersonic, Wonderwall and Don’t Look Back in Anger.

The brothers have flung barbs and vitriolic comments at each other over the past decade.

Liam has baited his twice divorced brother as old and boring, while Noel has returned fire saying his younger brother might have a great voice but can’t write his own songs.
