Oasis reunion in 2015?

Mon 24th Oct, 2011 in International News

Liam Gallagher has revealed that he’d “be up for” reuniting with his brother to tour in 2015 in celebration of the 20th anniversary of (What’s The Story) Morning Glory.

In an interview with Rolling Stone the Beady Eye frontman who no longer speaks to his brother suggested that “In 2015, if we can put our shit aside, we can tour and play the album in its entirety for the 20th anniversary. I’d be up for that, if it’s on our terms. There’s got to be two-way respect.”

Liam says that Noel’s recent comments got him thinking about the anniversary tour. “He’s the one that keeps mentioning it. I want to put him out of his misery. But I think he needs to do his solo thing first and realize he’s not that good without his brother. He’s got to find out for himself. I’m up for it – I’m not desperate for it. If it doesn’t work out, I don’t give a shit, I’m quite happy with Beady Eye.”

Back in August Noel told Rolling Stone that “Liam has said that the idea [of a reunion] makes him vomit and it would never happen, so I don’t need to add anything to that. I don’t need the fucking money, but I think it’s a shame that songs like Champagne Supernova, Rock and Roll Star, The Importance of Being Idle and The Shock of the Lightning will never be played again. In a stadium. That kind of fills me with sadness. The money is kind of irrelevant.”

“There’s bands that say, “We don’t want to get back together. We’d have to make a new record.” Why? Fuck a new record. No one gives a shit about your new record. Play the fucking old ones. The Led Zeppelin guys are like, “There will have to be a new record.” Really? Yeah, because that would be fucking great, wouldn’t it? Play fucking Whole Lotta Love. Get over it.”

In other Gallagher brothers settling old feuds news: Noel has told The Shortlist that he has made peace with his former rival Blur / Gorillaz frontman Damon Albarn: “Funnily enough, when I was out last night, I bumped into him. I literally haven’t seen the guy for 15 fucking years and I bump into him in some club. We both went, ‘Hey! Fucking hell!’ and then he said, ‘Come on, let’s go for a beer.’”

“So, we’re sitting there, having a beer, just going, ‘What the fuck was all that about 15 years ago? That was mental.’ Then he said, ‘It was a great time, though,’ and I was like, ‘Yeah, it was a fucking good laugh.’ It was cool, man. I said to him… you can say that you respect someone as an artist a thousand times and it will never get reported. But you call someone a cunt once… you know?”
