Oasis Roars Back: Reunion Triumph Fuels Epic Gigs & New Album Buzz

The music world is buzzing with continued speculation and confirmed events. Oasis, fresh off a sell-out 41-date reunion tour, is reportedly fielding offers for four massive shows at Knebworth House next year, marking the 30th anniversary of their historic 1996 concerts. Additionally, rumors point to a possible residency at the Etihad Stadium, their beloved Manchester City's home ground. Despite these enticing proposals, sources close to the band indicate that Noel and Liam Gallagher are not currently considering anything for 2026, opting for a well-earned holiday post-tour. The reunion is being hailed as a “cultural movement,” leaving the brothers with a significant decision on whether to continue or conclude this chapter. Further offers from private bidders and festivals like Coachella and Benicassim have reportedly been stonewalled. The tour has not been without its quirks, as Liam Gallagher revealed he has been banned from throwing his tambourine and maracas into the crowd due to past incidents where fans mobbed a female concert-goer. On stage in Scotland, Liam also vocally criticized Edinburgh Council Chiefs, calling them “f****** slags” after leaked documents branded Oasis fans “fat, drunk, and rowdy,” and took a swipe at the Fringe festival. Backstage, an unusual item on Noel Gallagher's rider—Wagon Wheels—surprised his podcaster pal Matt Morgan, adding a retro touch to their green room experience. Legendary singer Susan Boyle also received a special shout-out from Liam Gallagher at Oasis’ final Murrayfield Stadium gig, making her day.
Inspired by the Oasis reunion, Kasabian frontman Serge Pizzorno has announced that the band's next album is in the pipeline for next year, aiming for their eighth successive No.1 album. Their quick turnaround comes after their seventh No.1, “Happenings.” The band also celebrated their track “G.O.A.T” becoming the new title track for the 2025/26 Premier League season, featuring a collaboration with London-born star Cristale. Serge, a passionate Leicester City supporter, also shared his emotional feelings about Jamie Vardy's departure from the club, recognizing his legendary status.
Elsewhere in music, Beyoncé wrapped up her epic “Cowboy Carter” world tour by generously gifting her dancers luxury Louis Vuitton items, following in the footsteps of Taylor Swift. Joe Jonas and Demi Lovato reunited on stage 15 years after their brief relationship, performing songs from their 2008 Disney movie “Camp Rock,” sparking rumors of a third film. My Chemical Romance has announced they will headline Wembley Stadium on July 10 and 11 next year, marking two decades since “Welcome To The Black Parade.” Perrie Edwards is set to release her new single, “If He Wanted To He Would,” while Florence + The Machine's Florence Welch teased new music with an enigmatic Instagram video. Jade Thirlwall's solo album, “That’s Showbiz Baby,” is due September 12, with her boyfriend Jordan Stephens making a cameo in her upcoming video. New music releases also include Tom Grennan's album “Everywhere I Went, Led Me To Where I Didn’t Want To Be,” with competition from Alison Goldfrapp, Conan Gray, and Maroon 5. Singles from Bambie Thug, Moio, Cat Burns, and Ashnikko are also out. For Noughties fans, Supergrass is releasing a 20th-anniversary edition of “Road To Rouen” on October 3, including an unreleased track. The British band Velour Fog, fusing rock, hip-hop, and grunge, has released their new tune “The Zone.”
The celebrity circuit provides its own set of headlines. Jamie Dornan is promoting Diet Coke by showcasing his passion for cold-water swimming and his physique in a new ad, which he views as a “victory against woke silliness.” Angelina Jolie is preparing to sell her $24.5 million Hollywood home, previously owned by Cecil B. DeMille, which she bought in 2017 to be near Brad Pitt for her children, with the youngest child's 18th birthday approaching. Maura Higgins, the breakout star of “Love Island 2019,” opened up about experiencing post-traumatic stress disorder due to fame and bad advisers, though she now has a supportive team and an upcoming appearance on “The Traitors US.” Jenna Ortega turned heads with bleached brows at a press conference in South Korea while promoting the second series of her hit Netflix show “Wednesday,” where she shared a contentious mother-daughter sword fight scene with Catherine Zeta-Jones. Kylie Jenner's relationship with Timothee Chalamet is subject to swirling rumors of a breakup, fueled by her Instagram story featuring breakup songs, but she was seen enjoying a night out with friends, and her momager Kris Jenner is likely eyeing the drama for reality TV ratings. Charli XCX and her fiancé George Daniel watched a horror movie titled “Heart Eyes” the night before their wedding, a film about a serial killer who targets couples.
In other entertainment news, the horror film “Weapons,” starring Josh Brolin and Julia Garner, topped the UK box office, fending off Disney sequel “Freakier Friday.” “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” and “The Naked Gun” also performed well. Early talks are underway to take the immersive play “You Me Bum Bum Train,” favored by Prince Harry and Madonna, to Las Vegas, with superfan James Corden assisting in introductions to MGM bigwigs, though creators are cautious about commercialization. Comedian Chabuddy G has been named the official PR for England’s Red Roses, filming a humorous video to promote the women’s rugby team ahead of their World Cup campaign. Lastly, Metallica’s Robert Trujillo recounted an emotional yet whimsical experience at Ozzy Osbourne's funeral, suggesting “Ozzy was pranking them from beyond the grave” with changing weather and wind blowing lyrics, adding a touch of his mischievous spirit to the service, particularly during Geezer Butler's eulogy.
