As video of crazed 2005 Oasis crowd breaking through barriers resurfaces and fans recall ‘dodging cups of p***’ at ‘menacing’ gigs – how will band’s Gen-Z fanbase fare at reunion shows?

As a die-hard Oasis fan who lived through their heyday and witnessed their iconic performances firsthand, I can hardly contain my excitement at the prospect of Noel and Liam Gallagher reuniting for a tour. It’s been over a decade since they parted ways, and while their relationship has had its fair share of ups and downs, I believe that music has a magical way of bringing people together.

Enthusiastic Oasis supporters are buzzing about rumors suggesting that Liam and Noel Gallagher might finally reconcile for a much anticipated reunion, having apparently put an end to their notorious rivalry.

15 years back, the musical group from Manchester parted ways following a heated altercation among the bandmates during the Rock en Seine festival in Paris, 2009.

However, on Sunday, there were whispers of a potential reunion between Liam, aged 51, and Noel, aged 57, when Liam dedicated the Oasis song “Half The World Away” to his estranged brother during his headlining performance at the Reading Festival.

At the end of the show, a video of an Oasis-style sign was displayed on a massive screen overhead, which later got posted on the official Instagram and X accounts of Oasis, as well as both Noel and Liam.

In the center of the black-and-white, rectangular display box was a date, ‘27.08.24’, replacing the typical location for a band’s name. Later, it flashed and transformed to show ‘8am’.

There are rumors suggesting that Noel and Liam Gallagher may have put their differences aside during a late-night conversation, potentially leading to a reunion for the Glastonbury headline spot next summer and 10 shows at Wembley in 2025.

Fans are bursting with anticipation over the news, expressing their enthusiasm for the band’s return to the stage and creation of fresh tunes across various social media platforms.

However, despite the excitement building up, a few individuals have voiced their apprehension about the large, overwhelming crowds that characterized past Oasis concerts, using words such as ‘frightening’ and ‘alarming’.

A recording from the 2005 concert of the band at Manchester Stadium reappeared, featuring a sea of people in the audience pushing against the steel barriers, eventually causing them to collapse due to the force.

Through a post on social media, one enthusiast forecasted: ‘This Oasis crowd from Manchester in 2005, who actually broke through the security barricade during their initial song at the venue, will likely necessitate strong barriers for battle-like conditions when they reunite.’

On the other hand, many expressed their desire for improvements should Oasis reunite, reminiscing about the chaotic scenes at previous concerts and what they deemed as the “rudest group of so-called fans I’ve ever encountered.”

Speaking about Twitter, now referred to as X, they posted: ‘The uproar about Oasis potentially reuniting brings back memories of when I saw them at Old Trafford cricket ground. Frankly, the so-called fans were the most intoxicated and disorderly crowd I’ve ever encountered. They were essentially drunk out of their minds and even hurled full beer cups filled with urine into the audience. I have no intention of attending any future performances.’

Attended two concerts of Oasis, and I must say, the audience was the most unruly of all, using strong language to describe their behavior would be an understatement. It was a fantastic experience for the newer generations to witness them perform live, but be prepared to get splashed with various substances.

At every Oasis concert I attended, it felt routine for the crowd to surge forward as soon as the band appeared. I fail to understand the purpose behind this. Gaining six feet of proximity to the stage may seem appealing, but the resulting lack of space makes it impossible to breathe or even move comfortably. This behavior appears to be driven by a mindless mob mentality, making the situation both dangerous and terrifying.

Here are two options for paraphrasing the given text:

At the concert, the crowd surge was incredibly frightening. In fact, it was so powerful that I was lifted from my feet and pushed approximately 10-15 feet. Due to the numerous brawls erupting everywhere, I had no choice but to leave the event prematurely. I have never felt such an overwhelming sense of danger at a concert before.

‘I saw them four times approximately, and it seemed like a lot of the performance was spent dodging cups filled with liquids. Unfortunately, I was there, and what could have been an incredible show turned out to be ruined for me. I ended up taking a sobbing girl away from the main crowd and finding safety in the seating area on the sidelines.’

As a devoted fan, I’d love to catch Oasis again, but I’m bracing myself for the potential chaos that the crowd might bring. Fortunately, if I don’t manage to secure tickets, it won’t be too disappointing. You see, I attended their concert at Wembley Stadium back in 2000, and let me tell you, it was a wild experience! My friend got lost on someone’s shoulders amidst the crowd, and the aroma of something less than pleasant accompanied me all the way home.

However, it was thought that after twenty more years had passed, everyone would exhibit a more refined behavior, free of rowdiness. Some people went as far as stating they wouldn’t attend the concerts if this wasn’t the case.

They tweeted: ‘I saw Oasis 3 times in their prime and can’t remember anything other than trying to survive in the crowd. It was always just mayhem. I imagine it’ll be a lot gentler these days with barrier and walkway regulations and everyone standing still so they can film on their phones. 

As someone in the middle of life, I wholeheartedly support these walkway rules, as they bring a sense of peace and order. A tranquil environment is always welcome, and seating accommodations would be greatly appreciated too.

Back then, I was always fighting my way to the front, but now, after two decades, most of us have moved into middle age. It seems we’ve traded our youthful enthusiasm for a more contemplative approach – instead of pushing forward, we prefer to perch on the edge of the crowd and soak it all in, with a bit more ease and refinement.

The event will be open only to those aged 35 and above. There won’t be the same level of chaos as before; I last saw Oasis perform in Sheffield many years ago. The atmosphere was intensely tense, and girls were even using sinks in the men’s restrooms. It seems unbelievable now, but that was how it was. Exciting times appear to be approaching once more.

‘It’s fortunate that their fans are older, as it would likely take the entire duration of the performance for them to collect enough liquid in a pint glass to throw it.’

As a lifestyle expert, I’ve noticed an interesting shift in the crowd dynamics at recent Oasis concerts. Instead of the boisterous displays we saw with older fans in the past, the newer Generation Z audience seems to favor a more controlled and respectful atmosphere. This is a positive change that not only enhances the concert experience for everyone but also aligns with the values and preferences of this younger demographic.

For several months now, Taylor Swift’s extensive Eras Tour has been making waves in news outlets everywhere, culminating with her final performance at Wembley Stadium just recently.

At these events, a strong spirit of fellowship was noticeable among the participants – they would sing in unison, exchange warm embraces, and trade friendship bands – and Swifties frequently commented on how the ambiance was incredibly jubilant, accepting, and secure.

As a result of the tragic incidents at the Astroworld Music Festival in 2021, there is now increased caution among both event organizers and attendees regarding crowd management concerns.

A devastating incident resulted in the loss of life for 10 individuals, aged between 9 and 27, due to compression asphyxia during a chaotic crowd rush at a bustling Houston festival, which was headlined by Travis Scott.

A large number of people sustained injuries as well when the crowd became dense, causing attendees to struggle for breath and unable to move their limbs due to the tight packing.

It’s been mentioned that the promise of a substantial, jaw-dropping compensation convinced Noel and Liam to perform on stage together again.

It’s anticipated that this tour will become the most renowned music event in British history among industry experts, as they predict the siblings, despite their disagreements, will earn approximately £50 million from the deal.

According to a source, both Noel and Liam Gallagher may not always see eye-to-eye, but they aim to reunite Oasis for the sake of their fans.

They’re not growing any more youthful, and the need is immense. They concluded that the moment was ripe – either now or never. For a while, Noel resisted, but he’s eventually given in and consented to come back.

‘He spoke to Liam on the phone and they are on the same page. They know this reunion will go down in music history.’ 

As a die-hard admirer, I’d put it this way: In an exclusive chat with The Sun, the esteemed Professor Jonathan Shalit OBE, chair of InterTalent Agency, revealed that we’re looking at potentially raking in over £400 million from our upcoming tour and any subsequent business deals. Quite a mouth-watering prospect, wouldn’t you agree?

He said: ‘With tickets, sponsorship, merchandise and filming, I would predict an income for Noel and Liam of over £50million each. This is a tour that could easily gross over £400million.’ 

In 2009, their contentious bond reached its peak following a heated altercation backstage in Paris, which ultimately resulted in Noel departing from the group.

In more recent times, Liam has shown a strong desire to reconcile with his brother and revitalize their famous Britpop group.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I had the privilege of gracing the main stage at Reading Festival recently, where I paid homage to an iconic album by performing several tracks from Oasis’s debut masterpiece, Definitely Maybe. This was all in honor of the album’s 30th anniversary!

Presenting Half The World Away – a track from 1994, which was not only a B-side but also served as the main theme for the sitcom The Royle Family. He addressed the crowd: “I’d like to dedicate this song to Noel, bloody Gallagher.”

He continued to keep fans guessing by dedicating his rendition of Cigarettes & Alcohol at the Reading Festival to people who hate Oasis.

On their first album, Definitely Maybe, released in 1994, the last single was a song penned by his elder sibling.

Caught up in the whirlwind of back-and-forth banter among them, I, a diehard fan, couldn’t help but notice Noel consistently dampening the excitement of a potential reunion with his chilly words.

However, following his £20m divorce from ex-spouse Sara MacDonald the previous year, it is reported that the older Gallagher was convinced by the financial advantages of reuniting the band for performances at Glastonbury and Wembley Stadium.

When a fan questioned Liam about the upcoming Oasis tours next year, he seemed to verify it by saying, “I’ll see you up front.”

He later told his 3.6m followers on Twitter: ‘I never did like that word FORMER’.
