Strategic Insights

— 2 min read

The reunion tour kicked off in style with two shows at the Cardiff Principality Stadium, followed by a string of performances in their home city of Manchester, including a show in Heaton Park on Thursday. The UK was basking in glorious sunshine for the first show in Manchester on July 11, with thousands in attendance thrilled by the band's selection of incredible hits across a two-hour set.

Key Takeaways:

  • The Gallagher brothers set aside their differences for the eagerly anticipated reunion tour, "Oasis '25," which kicked off with two shows at the Cardiff Principality Stadium.
  • The tour continued with a show in Manchester's Heaton Park, where Liam Gallagher asked the crowd "who are you booing" after a divisive announcement, referencing Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola.
  • Noel Gallagher referenced the manager's presence, saying "The boss is here," and played down his own talents, saying "I didn't invent anything. I had a good taste in music, a cool record collection, I could write a melody simple enough to make it work, and it was 50 percent inspiration and 50 percent copying."
  • The band's reunion was inspired by the younger generation's love for their music, with Noel explaining that "A new generation recognises how Oasis wasn't manufactured. It was chaotic, and flawed, and not technically brilliant."
  • Oasis has announced a slew of tour dates, including five shows in Heaton Park, seven shows in London's Wembley Stadium, and three shows in Edinburgh's Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium.
