Liam Gallagher has delivered a sobering update to Oasis fans, casting significant doubt over the band's future just days before their triumphant Live '25 world tour concludes in South America.
An Uncertain Future for the Reunited Brothers
With the Oasis Live '25 tour set to finish in São Paulo, Brazil on Sunday, November 24, attention had turned to whether the Gallagher brothers would continue their musical reunion into 2025. Liam, 53, took to social media platform X on Wednesday to respond to a fan's question about seeing the band next year, revealing that the decision isn't solely his to make.
The singer wrote, "You will see me next year and the year after and so on just not sure yet if it'll be with oasis we need to sit down and discuss these things if it was all up to me then you know we'd be touring till the day we die as it's the best thing in the world but UNFORTUNATELY it's not."
Contradicting Earlier Optimism and Rumours
This cautious statement marks a shift from the optimism Liam showed during Oasis's Wembley Stadium performance in September, when he told the crowd the band would "see you next year" as they closed their set with Champagne Supernova. He later joked that he'd received a "slap on the wrist" for these comments.
The update also contradicts widespread speculation about major 2025 shows, including a potential Knebworth residency and performances at Manchester City's Etihad Stadium. These rumours gained unexpected traction when Labour peer Baroness Sharon Taylor of Stevenage mentioned during a House of Lords debate that Oasis would play five nights at the Hertfordshire venue, though she later backtracked, telling the BBC she was "speaking hypothetically."
Fan Reactions and What Comes Next
The news has sparked an emotional response from dedicated followers of the band. One fan responded to Liam's tweet, "I can't believe you're actually making me tear up over this right now I'm not being dramatic, I'm heartbroken," while another expressed concern about the timing, writing, "How can you say that when we're only three gigs away from the end of the tour? The anxiety is real!"
Other fans remained positive, with one noting that Noel Gallagher appears happy on stage and likely wants to continue. Another supporter wrote they would attend shows regardless of whether Liam performs with Oasis or solo.
Should Oasis take a break, Liam could potentially return to collaborating with Stones Roses guitarist, with whom he released an album in 2024 prior to reconciling with his brother. The band has also notably not performed any dates in continental Europe during this reunion tour, leaving fans in countries like Italy wondering if they'll get their chance to see the legendary group perform again.
