Thousands of Oasis fans were left disappointed when they were unable to get tickets to the band’s much-feted reunion gigs scheduled for next summer across the UK, but they could have the next best thing – hearing the band perform on a live album of the event.
The Sun newspaper reports that Noel and Liam Gallagher will be offered the chance to record a live album of the Oasis Live ’25 concerts. They cite a source close to the band sharing:
“The Oasis reunion is an historic moment and these concerts will be talked about for decades to come. Many people around the brothers think they have to capture the shows.
“A live album of the Oasis reunion could be as iconic as The Who’s Live At Leeds in 1970 or Queen’s Live At Wembley ’86.”
Oasis haven’t performed since 2009, when Noel Gallagher left the band after a final altercation with his brother, but they previously put out two live albums – Familiar To Millions, released in 2000, sold more than a million copies, and Knebworth 1996 – capturing their live shows in the UK – which was released five years later in 2021.
This comes after reports that the previously warring brothers are in talks to film preparations for the forthcoming gigs in a documentary, with AppleTV+ rumoured to be at the front of the queue of streamers keen to work with the band.
A documentary about Oasis would follow in the footsteps of Apple’s award-winning documentary Get Back, about the making of the Beatles’ 1970 Let It Be.
