Liam and Noel Gallagher revealed Oasis will reunite for a UK and Ireland tour next year.
Oasis has announced their highly anticipated reunion for a UK and Ireland tour in 2024, 15 years after their split. This announcement has stirred excitement among fans especially in Manchester where the band’s connection with the city’s football scene is strong. Liam and Noel Gallagher known for their deep-seated rivalry share a common passion for Manchester City.
Their rise to fame in the mid-90s paralleled City’s struggles and eventual resurgence. While Oasis played to 250,000 fans at Knebworth in 1996, City was languishing in the third tier of English football. By the time Oasis split in 2009, Manchester City’s fortunes had started to shift dramatically. Following their takeover by the Abu Dhabi United Group, Manchester City experienced significant success.
They went on to win the Champions League and multiple Premier League titles. Former Manchester United players David Beckham and Gary Neville reacted to the reunion on social media, acknowledging the Gallaghers’ impact on the city. Beckham posted a picture with the caption, “No words needed,” while Neville humorously referred to them as “Manchester’s second most famous brothers.”
From a Manchester City perspective, the Gallagher brothers’ affinity with the club is well-known. City fan Nigel Rothband noted that Noel Gallagher often showcases City memorabilia at his concerts, reinforcing the connection. On the other hand, Manchester United reporter Gaz Drinkwater suggested that while Oasis’ influence is significant, it transcends football rivalries, focusing more on the band’s cultural impact.
Oasis’s reunion has elicited enthusiastic responses from fans. Superfan Scarlett Thornton expressed her excitement and Shaun Edmonson is already planning to secure tickets for their Heaton Park shows. The timeline of Oasis and Manchester City highlights their intertwined histories from Oasis’s rise in the 90s to City’s transformation into a football powerhouse.
