Oasis Fans Are in Shambles Over Liam & Noel Gallagher’s Reunion: ‘A Historic Peace Treaty’

After 15 years apart, Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher are no longer looking back in anger — and Oasis fans are feeling everything from euphoria to disbelief over the Britpop duo’s surprise reunion.

Following the long-estranged brothers’ announcement Tuesday (Aug. 27) that they’d buried the hatchet, setting their sights on a 2025 tour featuring four nights at London’s Wembley Stadium, there was an outpouring of stunned reactions from listeners all over the world on social media. Many of them joked about the lengths they’d go to in order to secure tickets to the reunion shows — including selling their cars or houses — while others poked fun at the Gallaghers’ yearslong feud, predicting that the performances will culminate in “Liam swing[ing] a guitar at Noel’s head.”

Some fans could barely wrap their heads around it. “Whoever made this happen has to head to the United Nations immediately because we got some conflicts here that need solving,” one person quipped, while another wrote, “liam and noel working it out on the remix was NOT on my 2024 bingo card,” referencing how Charli XCX and Lorde squashed their beef by duetting on “Girl, So Confusing” earlier this summer.

“While everyone else was focused on the DNC, Biden was secretly brokering a historic peace treaty between Liam and Noel Gallagher,” another fan added.

One person, inspired by the brothers’ peacemaking, tweeted their hopes for another British band to do the same. “If Oasis can do it, so can One Direction,” they wrote.

The last time Oasis performed as a band was in 2009, after which the Gallaghers split up and fanned the flames of a bitter feud for a decade and a half. In 2011, Liam took legal action against Noel for allegedly saying that the former’s hangover had led to the cancellation of a festival performance two years prior, but the suit was later dropped. After breaking up the band, both artists formed successful musical careers of their own.

After years of firing shots at one another and squandering fans’ occasional hopes of a reunion, an announcement on the Gallaghers’ social media accounts this week officially put an end to the public feud: “The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.”
