Is anyone listening to Noel on TalkSport now? Just been asked about getting back together, and he basically said well I’m waiting for him. Asking for him to call him.

That's his current line in every interview now.
The Liam 2025 tweet is interesting though.

What's the Story Morning Glory will always take me back to a certain place in time. I left school in the 90's and that album is packed full of tracks to be optimistic about. Oasis was never about deep meaningful lyrics, it was about sticking up the volume and living in the moment. Only muscial snobs don't get that.
Despite seeing them live and buying a few albums, I wouldn't be bothered about them reforming. Life moves on and Oasis is a certain time and place for me.

Fully agree with this sentence, and despite being a super-fan I too am not bothered about them reforming for a pay day. If it happens I will be watching them at a small venue in Finland or something, not some corporate sponsored bandwagon at the Etihad or Knebworth or whatever.

So a bit like going to a football match then.I went to the Stone Roses reunion gig - I didn't see anything that I wouldn't expect. A load of balding blokes in bucket hats, parkas and Adidas Gazelles. Exactly what I expected
How can you tell they're balding if they're wearing a hat?

its gonna happen and I can see 4 nights at Knebworth as a starter ... then 5 then 6 to maximise the cash.when each day sells out ... cant see them touring tho... just a week thrashing the hits out at £200 a ticket for 120,000 fans a night.... apparantly 2,5 million people applied for Oasis tickets at the 2 days in 1996 they played Knebworth

If they only play at Knebworth its a bit of a kick in the teeth for the northern fans, of which I'd say there are far more than down south in 2023 (even if it wasn't the case in 1996). Obviously plenty of people would travel though.
I actually don't think there is any truth in this rumour, personally. The Sun just know how to sell newspapers.

As suspected the whole thing is b0ll0x and won’t happen any time soon. Noel knows Liam too well and him saying “call me” is just him changing the PR narrative about why the band aren’t together, which Liam was previously able to control when Noel was with Sara.
It won’t happen for years if it ever does. This tweet is toe-curling as well.

Watch the last two minutes. It’s as far away as it’s ever been.

two pathetic little children with no class who are vastly overrated as musicians
I am truely baffled by the love in for the music of Oasis, i didn't mind it in the 90's as a young lad growing up as their sound fit that time very well, but if you ask me
it is not a timeless sound, i've left it behind, unlike bands like the stones, the beatles, dylan , led zep etc etc whos music to me sounds eternal
I think its purely a nostalgic desire for people to see them reunite, its can't be for artistic reasons

That’s a good point. They were and are very limited musicians but they caught the zeitgeist perfectly at one point. I love them, a lot. But I’m from that era

Caught the ethos of that time well, the dying embers of the Tory government and the disenfranchised youth it had created. The low-fi simplistic songs with the don’t give a f… lyrics caught the zeitgeist of the time. But that was then and a couple of millionaires singing the same things will seem rediculous. Trying to act hard and edgy just seems like they haven’t grown and matured as people, which is frankly a bit embarrassing after 30 years

Maybe it's caught the imagination of this generation for the same reasons "dying embers of the tory government, disenfranchised youth" because all my kids/nieces/nephews love them, I was 19 when DM came out and it certainly caught me and that generation but it does sound very much of that time to me.

I think there is a huge gap musically. Kids that want a bit of angsty rock, that hasn't been manufactured and packaged by their management doesn't really exist anymore. In fact there is a huge lack of real bands around right now, I guess the kids have to listen to stuff from 15-50 years ago. One thing I noticed at the riverside on Monday was just how many kids were there that would have been 0-6 years old when Whatever People.... came out. The influence of parents with a library of older music at their finger tips, and A&R people signing boy bands and record producers masquerading as musicians has made kids go for the older stuff.
One thing is for certain an Oasis reunion would have huge ticket demand, and a huge part of it would be 20 somethings too young to remember the first time.
