Oasis fans believe Noel and Liam Gallagher have ‘missed’ touring with one another, and that one particular clue in Cardiff highlights the band’s love for live shows
Fans believe they have spotted a clue during an Oasis show which suggests Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher “missed” performing together. The Gallagher brothers reunited for their first shows in 16 years, kicking off their Live ’25 dates in Cardiff earlier this month. Attendees of the sold out shows in Cardiff and Manchester have since suggested the Liam and Noel look delighted to be back performing together.
A post to the r/Oasis Reddit page had a fan share their thoughts on how the brothers seemed to be relishing their time on stage together. Oasis recently performed their final Manchester date, with the series of sold out shows at Heaton Park received well by those in attendance.
Even those who didn’t manage to bag tickets to the show said they enjoyed the experience, sitting on top of “Gallagher hill” and watching the show from a vantage point outside the festival grounds.
The post to the Oasis subreddit reads: “I feel as if Noel missed this a lot more than he admitted earlier on. Was at Heaton Park on Saturday, one of the many things I took away from that special night was how much Noel was loving it.
“I can understand the first few years with the High Flying Birds post break up. But he repeatedly gave the ‘been there, done that, don’t need to do it again’ speech in response to comeback rumours through the years.
“I don’t know, I’m no mind reader but I think deep down, he really, really missed doing shows like this as ‘Oasis’ all along.
“I absolutely loved to watch how much he enjoyed it, it just added to how epic the night was. I wish I could experience that all over again.”
Another fan has suggested a moment at the Cardiff gig highlighted just how much Gallagher had missed performing with his brother and the rest of the Oasis members.
They wrote: “His face during Slide Away in Cardiff said it all.” Fans are now convinced the brothers have loved the shows so much they may head back into the recording studio for their first album since Dig Out Your Soul.
One fan wrote: “I really do wonder if a new album would be in the works after the tour ends.”
Another suggested: “I think so. I don’t think this reformation was ever going to be a one-off thing unless him and Liam didn’t get on, and they’re loving it. Someone like Noel and someone like Liam can’t resist making new music, and with them together again it’s inevitable.”
Though a new album hadn’t been planned and was even ruled out by management, fans are hopeful Oasis will change their mind and return to the studio.
One listener wrote: “Even if a new album wasn’t planned, I bet he’s thinking about it now. But I think it’s better if they just take one step at a time: let’s finish the tour well (something I have no doubt will happen), and then we’ll see.”
