Oasis reunion rumors are circling for a better part of the decade, but it looks like brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher just can’t find a way to work through their problems. Recently speaking to Q magazine, Liam revealed that his brother’s wife is the one keeping the band from getting back together.
“He’s desperate to get Oasis back but he knows he’s crossed that bridge.” said Liam. “And he’s not allowed to, his missus won’t let him now. Cos she’s another one.”
“I know for a fact, deep down, he wants to be playing stadiums… You can only play stadiums when I’m there,” he added. “I don’t think our kid’s got it in him anymore, anyway. It seems to me like he’s playing to the snobs and the world and the toffs.”
Both brothers have been doing well since Oasis disbanded in 2009. Noel Gallagher released three albums with his accompanying band the High Flying Birds, with each one of them peaking at number one of the UK Charts. Liam, on the other hand, after a failed experiment with the Beady Eye, released a solo album in 2017 titled As You Were. The album proved to be a smashing hit, debuting at number one in the UK and even outselling his brother’s new release Who Built the Moon?.
While Liam would most likely reform the band in a heartbeat, Noel consistently claims that won’t happen.
“I’ve been very consistent about it,” Noel said last year. “I don’t need the money, I don’t need the glory, I don’t need to relive the memories. If I was to get Oasis back together tomorrow and then do a tour, I’d have a hundred million dollars in the bank but I’d have learnt f** all. I’d have actually wasted a year of being in the studio with a person like David Holmes. It would be the death of me as a person.”
