Liam Gallagher has claimed that he asked Noel to reunite for Oasis‘ ‘Definitely Maybe’ tour this year, but he “turned it down”.Back in October, Liam shared details of a 2024 tour to celebrate 30 years of Oasis‘ seminal 1994 album.The former Oasis frontman had confirmed earlier in the year that he was looking to play their iconic debut in full – which includes tracks like ‘Live Forever’, ‘Supersonic’ and ‘Cigarettes & Alcohol’ – later teasing that he’d be playing “naughty” B-sides from the era, too.Liam will kick off the solo 12-date stint in Sheffield on June 2, followed by a night in Cardiff, three in London, three in his native Manchester, two in Glasgow and two in Dublin.In a new interview with MOJO, the artist said that his brother turned down the opportunity to put aside their differences and join forces for the anniversary tour. “Noel? He ain’t fucking doing it,” he told the publication.“I did call him! Well, my people called Noel’s management team,” claimed Liam.
“We put an offer on the table for an Oasis thing – because we got offered it – and he said no. It was a big tour, a lot of money.
He turned it down. I get it, he’s got a divorce going down.
I’ll do the ‘Definitely Maybe’ thing and have a nice time without him.”As for whether 2025 could see the pair bury the hatchet for the anniversary of second album ‘(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?’, Liam said: “It’s down to the universe. It’ll happen when it happens, it’s not in our hands anymore.”He added: “Me, I love nostalgia though.
I’m doing the lot. Every album, even… what was the last one?”It’s not the first time Liam has claimed that Noel turned down his offer to reform, sharing on X/Twitter back in October: “He’s been asked and he’s refused.”It comes after
