If they can guarantee me a ticket to their first gig and open with ‘Lyla’ I’ll be there.

In all seriousness, I’ll have a look but Heaton Park turns me off. Saw them there and the Roses and meh.

Will find out Tuesday am by the looks of it

Glasto are rumoured to have offered them the headline slot for next year

They’ll make a ridiculous amount of money if they reunited, even just for a couple of albums and tours

Will be biggest interest in tickets for any band ever in the UK I’d imagine ?

What’s the chances of getting tickets in the release ?

If they want to do tours to the scale and number of Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift they could earn best part of a billion pounds (those 2 earned £700m and over a billion respectively for their world wide tours)

The numbers are now astronomical compared to the last time Oasis toured - even a relatively small tour of 30 or 40 big stadium sell outs will be very tempting for both of them to “make up” their differences.

Assuming it’s Ticketmaster it’ll be the usual free for all for about the 60% of tickets they actually put on sale, with the rest held back to put at 100% mark up (and then some) on their own part owned resale sites.

Already dreading it.

If it happens dont rush to buy tickets. They'll do so many shows and sell out so far in advance come a week or two before the gigs you'll have hundreds maybe thousands going through twickets and can probably get them less that cost price.

A generational thing.

Something that people really care about. A band that meant a hell of a lot to so many people .

Times have changed since then but memories do not.

People have differing opinions on the brothers but they made a huge impact on a lot of people.

I’d say given the way the country is going with so much negativity , this is exactly the time for them to return and bring back a feel good factor

They applied for permission from Manchester Council earlier this year to play Heaton Park. It is them. You might say it's 10 or 25 years too late. But they're about to outsell Taylor Swift for the most sell out days in a row at Wembley.

I heard the heaton park thing a few months ago but didn’t believe it fully. Still not convinced that they will actually play there. Possibly Eithad instead

Heaton Park is a nightmare to get away from, loved them back in the day but dont love them enough anymore to put myself through that!!!

Etihad would be a different story mind, bucket hat and a bag of bing at ready!!!

Probably best they don't reunite imo. They did a couple of amazing albums in the mid 90s and after that everything was pretty average at best. I saw them in 2002 at Old Trafford CC and it was 1 of the most forgettable gigs I have ever been to. That gig was 6 or 7 years too late. This planned reunion is 30 years too late. Fans will be chasing a moment that has long since passed. The time to see Oasis was at Knebworth or around those times.

I have a lot of friends who went to see the Stone Roses at Heaton Park and not 1 person was blown away by it. They only did it for the money. The band were much more than that though when they started out. They were fresh and represented a large portion of the disaffected youth of the time. Again the time to see The Roses was at Spike Island or even better at The Empress Ballroom.

I was lucky enough to see The Clash in 1980 along with a lot of other punk/new wave bands in the late 70s and early 80s. To me it wasn't just about the music it was about being part of a movement that was rebelling against authority and society's norms around the music industry. Years later Mick Jones said to Paul Simonon ' Paul, we need to reunite as we can make a million pounds'. Paul said words similar to 'that's exactly why we shouldn't get back together'.

But, hey if you want to support the corporate machine buy yourself ticket for £100 plus and don't forget to take your smart phone so that you can record the show along with thousands of others whilst worshipping a band that is not the band that you fell in love with.

For the record I do think that some artists are timeless and it is not as important whether you see them today or whether you saw them 30 years ago. Its just my opinion but I don't think that Oasis are 1 of these bands and they were very much of the period.

Oasis. There was a lickle shop in the entrance to the underground market, just off Market Street and a few yards from the punk shop. Was a haven for trainers and sports gear. It was a little bit risky to visit. Only had a few pair of trainers or so in the front, but you would be daft to venture beyond that into the underground market. Can’t remember the names.

Whiny and droney (if that’s even a word), with a very nasal hum. Not only is Noel the better musician, he’s also the better singer. Liked Oasis back in the day, still listen to them now, but I won’t be breaking any doors down for tickets to listen to Liam warbling away for a couple of hours. Used to be his talking that I couldn’t listen to…. He’s actually quite annoying when he sings these days.

I'd be there.

As others have said, Heaton parks horrible to get away from, but I was right at the front for Oasis and Stone Roses, and actually really enjoyed both gigs.
Maybe because I was a young lad and let's just say it was a heavy session.

Gutted i never saw them back in the day but not sure i'm fussed now. The way modern society is the gigs will just be thousands of people stood filming on their phones so they can show everybody "i was there".

I don't. We saw them back in their early days at Preston, but for me, Definitely Maybe was as good as it got, and nowadays many of those tracks are so overplayed that I switch stations whenever I hear one of them in the car. Their other output was the same dull pedestrian-like stuff regurgitated over and over again, until they themselves got bored with it.

Mind you, there's nothing wrong with a bit of expensive nostalgia if that's your thing, but please spare me the hype. In any case, they'll probably fallout with each other before Noal strikes the first chord of Woefulwall.

Heaton Park is shite. They’re bigger than that. Too big for Glastonbury is this comeback. They’d sell out Glastonbury if they were the only act playing.

Easy to be dismissive about it, we all know there’s a tax bill / divorce settlement behind this and their moment in time is long ago.

But the same was true of the Roses reunion and that was an enjoyable day out if you took it for what it was. There’s always going to be a bit of sadness or ‘naffness’ about something as nostalgic as this but probably not worth thinking about too deeply and just go there with your mates and sing along to the anthems from when you were young.

There are so many good indie bands doing great live stuff at small-to-medium sized music venues in Manchester, Leeds, or just down the road in Hebden Bridge at the Trades Club.

We watch a lot of 'up and comers' along with those who'll kick around the indie scene for a couple of albums or so before burnout. You can be blown away by some performances and you won't pay more than £20/30 quid a ticket. I love watching live music from bands who haven't lost the love and passion for what they are doing.

Like I said, though. There nothing wrong with a bit of nostalgia. We went to see The Breeders the other month and they still have it in spades.

You'll always get the crowd that can't wait to tell everyone how it was better in the day, and how they'd not be seen dead there now. I'm sure the million or so that do go to the gigs will be glad you aren't there

Makes me smile :)

Exactly. It’ll be a great day out. There’s no difference to a band that played the pub scene reconnecting after a fallout, divorces, kids etc getting back together to play the old music. Only Oasis will bring millions along with them. There’s always horrible news each and everyday going out. Just enjoy times when there’s something good happening for a change.

To be fair I think Liams voice has improved again. He was shocked towards the end of Oasis and the last time we saw them the sound was dreadful too.

I might be tempted but most people will have seen most of the best stuff live because that's what Liam does in his shows anyway

Yeah I know but he sings in a different way now. Funnily enough I was watching him at Reading on the telly whilst commenting on this thread last night. He’s like a tribute band Liam who hasn’t quite got how he’s meant to sound.

It’ll still be good fun though, the best stuff either of them have done is the first two oasis albums, none of the later oasis or solo stuff comes close. Plus heaton park means I can walk home so bonus.

They’re older, the sound of any vocalist alters as they get older - is what it is. It won’t stop me enjoying it for what i hope it is. Pleasant weather, all the hits played (and maybe some of their side/solo stuff somehow mixed in, I hope - I might be alone in that though).

Can’t wait, as I never had the privilege in their pomp.

Depends what you’re comparing, I guess. I’m thinking more the Apollo, Maine road and Old Trafford vs co-op live and the latter doesn’t come close.

Saw them plenty when I was younger, and have seen plenty of them in their different guises since (Beady Eye, Liam Gallagher, Highflying birds)..... and one thing has stood out. If you catch Liam early on the tour (often uses Dublin as first gig on tour) his voice is better than ever, but if you catch him later on a tour, he's shot at.

Noel's just become a bitter old man, and looks down on people and sneers at them.

There feels a reasonable chance they won't last a full tour (Stone roses were nearly gone before it even got going, and they're slightly less combustible), and as mentioned Liam's voice is best early on..... so get your tickets for the early dates, or potentially give it a miss.

I’m curious as to which Oasis line-up it will be.

I used to absolutely love them in my youth, I saw them live about 10 times.

I can’t stand them any more aside from a handful of songs, but I’m happy they are reuniting for all the kids who never got to see them back in the day.

Agree with the above - I would try to catch the early shows. Liam’s voice and general ‘can he be arsed’ level tended to level off dramatically back in the day. They can be a brilliant live band but they can also go through the motions.

But, hey if you want to support the corporate machine buy yourself ticket for £100 plus and don't forget to take your smart phone so that you can record the show along with thousands of others whilst worshipping a band that is not the band that you fell in love with.

For the record I do think that some artists are timeless and it is not as important whether you see them today or whether you saw them 30 years ago. Its just my opinion but I don't think that Oasis are 1 of these bands and they were very much of the period.
How ignorant do you have to be to write this?

There's a huge amount of people who never got to see Oasis- you're suggesting that people should miss out on the experiences you were fortunate enough to get (at a fraction of the cost) just because you're a bitter old man. I'll take it back if you're selling space on your time machine so people can go back and watch them at Knebworth.

I'm fortunate enough to have seen them back in the day, but I'm also open enough to say if it gives people an opportunity to watch one of the biggest UK bands ever that they've never had then so be it. I recognise it probably won't be as good as it was back then (at least for me) but that doesn't mean I'll be dumping all over it for everyone else.

Out of interest how did you post on here? Computer/smartphone? Ahhh so you don't have an issue with corporate greed- just with people enjoying things you don't.

A bit like Marmite, you either like them or not, I know musicians that refuse to cover any of their stuff.

Each to their own I guess. Privileged to have seen them back in the day but that is almost 30 years ago now. Two good albums then meh. But if it gives people a chance to watch them then fair play.

Makes me laugh when people say two good albums.

Two absolutely out of this world albums.

If the two of them weren’t so obnoxious then perhaps they could be taken seriously

Because they can't do it justice
