Between the loudness of the struggle to get legitimate tickets and how expensive they were — as well as the Toronto-specific worries about the forthcoming temporary, poorly named Rogers Stadium — there has also been a quiet lingering concern about the Oasis reunion tour: will it actually be a good show?
Of course, a pitch-perfect performance is far from most ticketholders' expectations, let alone the reasons why they want to go to the concert; this is a band most thought they would never get to see (again) in their lifetime. The Britpop greats broke up in 2009, meaning bickering brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher haven't played a show together in over 15 years. It feels more likely that they might throw instruments at each other on stage than fully recapture their former glory as a live act.
But naturally, Liam has something to say about this. After apparently being asked about it, because it is a well known fact that most once-beloved bands who get back together years later usually aren't as good, he took to his soapbox of choice (the social media platform formerly known as Twitter) yesterday (November 10) to set the record straight.
"Got asked a ridiculous question yesterday so are OASIS gonna be as good as you once were because when [some] bands get back together there [sic] not as good," the punctuation-averse musician wrote. "I said listen here you CUNT even on our bad day we'll still wipe the floor with majority of bands out there BUMBACLART LG x."
You heard the man! Oasis sold out the entirety of their 2025 North American reunion tour, and have recently announced a South American leg. Elsewhere in his Twitter dispatches, Liam has claimed that they've already finished a new album, and that he was "blown away" by Noel's songwriting.
