Of course the neighbors reportedly complained that the brothers were being too noisy.

Noel and Liam Gallagher are just 67 days from kicking off their first tour in more than 16 years. And while the formerly battling brothers have kept a tight lid on what fans can expect from Oasis 2.0, according to reports from the U.K., they recently took the stage together for the first time in nearly two decades and, as you might expect, the neighbors complained about the noise.
According to The Guardian, the Gallaghers were pictured arriving at the Mildmay club in North London on Thursday, where they were reportedly filming a promo video for their sold-out summer reunion tour. They reportedly spent an hour at the club and made such a racket that the neighbors lodged a noise complaint. At press time a spokesperson for the group had not returned Billboard‘s request for additional information on the shoot.
Though a London tabloid reported that the pair performed and/or rehearsed during their visit to the club, singer Liam Gallagher threw cold water on that when the Oasis Podcast Twitter feed wrote, “The S*n reporting Noel and Liam actually performed on Thursday and there were noise complaints from local residents … knowing them could be rubbish but very interesting to see what comes out of it even if it is just an Adidas advert!”
In response, Liam wrote “there was no performance.” As usual, though, Liam also had some cheeky answers to fan questions in the wake of the reports, writing on Saturday, “It’s all good can’t wait to get rehearsing.” When another fan wrote, “Noel says you’re on tip top form. How would u say Noel is??,” Liam responded of his guitarist/songwriter and occasional singer older brother, “He’s the same we’re locked in.”
Oasis have booked 41 dates for their long-awaited reunion tour, which is slated to kick off on July 4 with the first of two dates at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, U.K. Following a run of shows in their hometown of Manchester, as well as London, Edinburgh and Dublin they will move on to North America with August shows in Toronto and Chicago and September gigs in East Rutherford, N.J., Los Angeles and Mexico City.
The rest of the year will have the group — whose other touring members have not yet been revealed — returning to London before wrapping things up in Japan, Australia, Argentina and Chile before winding down with two shows at Estadio MorumBIS in São Paulo, Brazil on Nov. 22 and 23.
As they gear up to get back on the road, Oasis is also prepping a return to the charts in England, with their single “Some Might Say” expected to be back on the singles tally 30 years after its initial April 1995 release. According to NME, the song that earned the band their first U.K. No. 1 from their second album, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? looks to climb to No. 2 on the U.K. Official Singles Chart after the release last week of a 30th anniversary vinyl re-release of the single.
