Oasis reunion

[Ysabel 123]

Let’s hope this tour is the last one. They were the absolute bollocks back in the day.,They’ve put on a load of shows that newcomers have had the opportunity to see. Now let’s close the lid, put away the key. The story is over. Time to move on. If you missed it, you missed it.

How is the story over when they have just sold out a wold tour with an estimated 10m applying for tickets and missing out.

They obviously got back for money, but not one single person could predict just how commercially successful it would be. Adidas could make merchandise quick enough it was selling out that quick!

The majority of people thought that the they would fall out and cancel the tour before they got to Heaton Park. You only have to see how Noel has gone from looking bewildered and nervous to absolutely loving having his brother back, and being in the biggest band in the world again!

IMO nothing will be decided about next year yet, They will regroup and if they want to do it they will. Them touring the world now is a million miles away from how they toured before they split up. They tour with their family's now and don't travel/stay with the same group of people for months.

Hopefully they go again next year, because this summer was class, I got to see them 5 times, and would love to do it all again!

I’m seeing Jamiroquai in Brussels on Saturday so it’s not an insurmountable issue

Arena type bands haven't the pull to put all their shows on in the CTA.

A lot of smaller bands can't afford to tour now. Even Iron Maiden were complaining about it, so I suppose if you can get your fans to travel rather than you, it is an environmental disaster but it saves you money.

Agree Liam wants to carry on but it’s up to all the others, Boneheads health, Noel likes a quieter life than touring as well as his divorce it’s the money ! I think Sarah took half his money and a house. :)
We may get Knebworth and the Etihad I hope a final goodbye?

Noel will have made a lot more from this tour than he had to pay in his divorce. I mentioned on another post that this is not like touring like they used to do. They travel separate with their own family's and look like they enjoy being mates again now!

That’ll just about cover Noel’s divorce settlement (the real reason they got back together).

He is worth over £70m and paid her £20m.

He also owns the rights to the Oasis back catalogue which is estimated at £250m.

He really didn't need to do this tour because he needed the money

Yeah, I agree that it's been an issue - yet another Brexit benefit....not. Smaller bands for sure are struggling with it. But if Jamiroquai can do it, then so can Oasis. IMHO of course.

These gigs are so commercially attractive I’m sure the governments in the EU countries would provide the necessary tax breaks/incentives or whatever to facilitate Oasis playing in their cities?

Looking back it is odd that there were no European dates at all

You'd certainly think so mate. Maybe they'll include some European dates next year if they tour again

Brilliant...AC/DC levels.

A message from Liam I think he’s celebrating, he was off the booze and cigs all tour. It’s only right he celebrates a little bit.

Who knows how much they’ve earned ? but it’s a lot of money judging from how happy they’ve both been, they never stopped smiling :) estimates have it at over a billion.

Madness Europe is so close the clamour for tickets in the UK was off the scale
