Toward the end of show three at Wembley Stadium, as Noel and Liam Gallagher walk off stage with “Don’t Look Back In Anger”, “Wonderwall” and “Champagne Supernova” still in the tank, there’s a very small part of me that worries they won’t actually come back. It’s an absurd thought – rock music’s most cantankerous siblings have been on tour for the guts of a month now, and they’ve returned for lengthy encores at every stop along the way. But the reputation they’ve built for themselves over the past 15 years since their breakup is so powerful that it has broken my brain, along with that of the 90,000 other bucket-hat-wearing, pint-chucking attendees. In that moment, it dawned on me that Oasis has cultivated something that very few artists have in 2025: mystique. Over the years, we’ve all been conditioned to believe – by the many, many interviews they’ve given in which they’ve slagged each other off – that this reunion is fragile. Many fans questioned whether they’d make it through the rehearsals without throttling each other.

funny to call it mystique when arguably their personal business has been hyper-scrutinized for decades but somehow... that is exactly what it is!
