This news electrified rock music fans: Oasis has announced a triumphant return to the stage. The musicians' last concert tour took place in 2009, and the media reported "irreconcilable differences" between the Gallagher brothers.

The speculations were true. The band Oasis is returning to the stage after more than a decade. The first dates of the 2025 concert tour have already appeared online. This information caused a huge stir, and the band's website stopped working due to server overload.

Oasis returns. Fans of the band in euphoria

The band Oasis existed for nearly two decades. It was formed in 1991 by the musicians of the band The Rain—Liam Gallagher, Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs, Paul "Guigsy" McGuigan, and Tony McCarroll. The final lineup was formed when the singer's five-year-older brother, Noel Gallagher, joined the group. The Manchester-based group has sold over 75 million copies of their albums worldwide. Among the band's most famous songs are hits like "Wonderwall," "Don't Look Back in Anger," "Champagne Supernova," and "Whatever." In 2009, the group announced their breakup.

Oasis broke up years ago due to the Gallagher brothers' quarrels

On August 22, 2009, Oasis held their last concert, and a few days later, the rest of the performances on the "Dig Out Your Soul" tour were canceled. On August 28, 2009, the group officially announced their breakup. The primary reason cited was the exceedingly turbulent relationship between the Gallagher brothers.

Oasis fans will undoubtedly remember the notorious incident in May 2001, when Liam Gallagher, backstage at a concert in Barcelona, questioned the paternity of his older brother, who had just had a daughter. A serious fight broke out between the brothers - according to witnesses, the musicians were punching each other.

Liam Gallagher was particularly known for initiating brotherly conflicts. His inflated ego and rebellious nature stood in the way of the band's return to the stage for many years. Even their 81-year-old mother, Peggy, tried to reconcile them, but it seemed impossible. As recently as April this year, Noel Gallagher emphasized that there was no point in waiting for Oasis to reunite.

This is how much Oasis members are expected to earn from the tour. record-breaking interest in the concerts

Though it's hard to believe, the legendary band has decided to return after 15 years. The British media report that the group is expected to earn an astounding 400 million pounds ($483 million) from the planned 2025 concert tour. Four concerts will be held at Wembley Stadium in London as part of the just-announced tour. The NME portal reported such huge interest in concerts in the UK that the owners of one of the major ticket-selling companies decided to cancel their employees' vacation leaves. Tickets will go on sale on August 31.
