Bonnie McLaren and Annabel Rackham are the two women behind this popular blog.
After much talk and rumors floating around, the Gallagher siblings have officially announced that Oasis will be getting back together.
Noel and Liam are expected to set aside their disagreements in order to perform at a variety of shows throughout the UK and Ireland, as part of the Oasis Live '25 tour.
According to the band, the fighting has stopped, everything is coming together perfectly, and the long-awaited moment has finally arrived. They invite everyone to come and witness it for themselves, promising that it will not be shown on TV.
Here is the important information you should have in order to get tickets for the highly sought-after comeback concerts.
When And Where Is Oasis Performing?
At this time, Oasis has only revealed tour dates for the United Kingdom and Ireland.
They have scheduled four shows at Heaton Park in Manchester, and four at Wembley Stadium in London.
They will also perform for two nights at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh and two nights at Principality Stadium in Cardiff.
The final performances are scheduled to take place in Ireland, specifically at Croke Park in Dublin.
On the 4th and 5th of July, we will be in Cardiff at the Principality Stadium.
We will be performing a series of concerts on July 11, 12, 19, and 20 at Heaton Park in Manchester.
On the 25th and 26th of July, as well as the 2nd and 3rd of August, there will be an event at Wembley Stadium in London.
On the 8th and 9th of August, head over to Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium for some exciting events.
On the 16th and 17th of August, we will be in Dublin at Croke Park.
The band announced that these will be their sole European tour dates for next year. However, they may add more shows if the initial ones are sold out.
Nevertheless, Oasis Live '25 is being referred to as a "global tour", hinting that additional dates will be revealed in the near future.
When Will Oasis Live '25 Tickets Be Available For Sale?
Tickets will be available for everyone to purchase starting on Saturday, August 31, 2024.
For the UK concerts, tickets will be available for purchase starting at 9:00 BST.
Tickets for Dublin will go on sale one hour earlier, on the day of the event.
Ticket Prices: What To Expect
This is a crucial question, but it has not been determined how much tickets will cost at this time.
The prices for all ticket tiers, including Platinum and VIP, will be revealed on Thursday, August 29th, just two days before they are available for purchase.
Supporters can purchase up to four tickets per person.
With the amount of hype surrounding the news and the extended period since the band's last performance, it is expected that some fans will be willing to pay exorbitant prices.
Is Oasis Headlining Glastonbury?
Before the official announcement was made on Tuesday, there were rumors circulating that Oasis might be the main act on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury next summer for the third time. They have headlined the festival in 1995 and 2004.
What's the deal? The band has labeled the stadium dates as their "sole European performances", meaning they won't be at Glastonbury.
The music festival in Somerset did not receive any mention in the official tour announcement or on social media.
A representative from Oasis stated to BBC News on Tuesday afternoon that the band will not be performing at Glastonbury.
Even so, that hasn't prevented fans from getting excited.
In the end, Oasis has the time to do it. The festival happens in late June, right before they start their UK tour in July.
The line-up for Glastonbury is still being determined and unexpected guest performances are common. The band might view this as an opportunity to make up for their disappointing headline show in 2004.
Recently, Liam confessed that he really disliked the performance, saying that his use of in-ear monitors threw him off.
He said to BBC 6 Music’s Matt Everitt in 2019 that he has always liked Glastonbury, except for one time when he wore a white jacket.
I didn't like that experience because it was the first time I used in-ear monitors to listen to the music and it affected me for 15 years. I really disliked that performance.

In 1993, a picture was taken of the first Oasis band members. Pictured from left to right are Noel Gallagher, Paul Arthurs (also known as Bonehead), Paul McGuigan, Tony McCarroll, and Liam Gallagher.
Who Else Is Playing With The Band?
Oasis started in Manchester in 1991 with Liam and Noel Gallagher, guitarist Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs, bassist Paul "Guigsy" McGuigan, and drummer Tony McCarroll.
However, the members of the band changed throughout the years (keep reading for more information), until their final show at V Festival in 2009.
Bonehead and Liam have continued to be friends, and the guitarist has accompanied Liam to some of his performances.
Right now, it's not completely certain which artists will be performing on the tour, apart from the Gallagher brothers. BBC News has reached out to the promoter for more information.
What Caused Their Breakup?
The band broke up in 2009 following a fight backstage at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.
Noel recounted that two years later, Liam attempted to strike him with his guitar during a disagreement.
He said that the argument began because he stopped Liam from promoting his clothing line in the program for V Festival, where they were both scheduled to perform.
In 2017, Liam expressed that he felt he was unfairly blamed by Noel for the band breaking up. He felt like he was left to take all the blame on his own.
However, issues had been developing prior to the festival mishap - as the duo found it difficult to come to a consensus on the creative vision for Dig Out Your Soul, their last album, which came out in 2008.
A lot of fans will be interested to see how the relationship between the brothers will unfold after 15 years since they went their separate ways.
Evolution Of Oasis Line-Up
The team started with a total of five individuals when they came together in 1991.
This band consisted of Paul Arthurs playing guitar, Paul McGuigan on bass guitar, and Tony McCarroll on drums. Liam Gallagher was the lead singer, with Noel Gallagher playing lead guitar and also singing.
McCarroll was substituted by Andy White in 1995 and Arthurs and McGuigan were exchanged for Gem Archer and Andy Bell in 1999.
White departed from the band in 2004, and was substituted by Zac Starkey. Later on, Chris Sharrock took over in 2008.
After some of the band members left, Liam Gallagher and the rest of the group started a new band called Beady Eye. Unfortunately, Beady Eye broke up in 2014.
It's unclear whether any of the previous band members will join Liam and Noel on their upcoming tour next year.
What's The Reason For This Sudden Change?
Only the people who were present in the room when Noel and Liam, aged 57 and 51, decided to reunite will truly understand the true motive behind their reunion.
Lots of people thought it was unlikely that they would ever perform together again. This feeling was reinforced when Noel refused to join Liam onstage at the One Love Manchester concert following the tragic bombing at the Ariana Grande show.
The realistic response would be that 14 major concerts (with additional shows yet to be revealed) will result in a significant amount of revenue for the band.
If Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is any indication, they could potentially earn about £14 million per show.
