Oasis: this gesture too much which sealed the separation of the group in 2009

In 2009 at the Rock en Seine festival, a violent argument caused the group Oasis to split up, and they have now announced that they are ready to reform for a series of concerts.

While he had given his fans a date this Tuesday, August 27, Oasis made a big announcement on X. Separated since 2009, the main members of the group will reunite for a series of concerts. Noel Gallagher, guitarist and composer, and his brother Liam, singer, will perform next summer in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The tour will begin on July 4, 2025 in Cardiff and will end on August 17 in Dublin. Tickets are available for sale from this Saturday, August 31.

The tour could then continue: “preparations are underway to take ‘Oasis Live ’25’ to other continents later next year,” reveals the band’s official website. This announcement comes on the thirtieth anniversary of the album. Definitely Maybe who had started the group.

A final argument

It’s been fifteen years since the band split up. On Friday, August 28, 2009, at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris, the siblings had exploded. The brothers allegedly insulted each other and even fought in the dressing room. Liam allegedly broke his brother’s guitar, the last straw that pushed Noel to leave, failing to perform. Shortly after this scene, Noel announced that he was leaving the band on his official website: “It is with a little sadness and a great deal of relief that I tell you that I am leaving Oasis tonight. People will write and say what they want, but it is impossible for me to continue working with Liam one more day.”

In a press conference in 2011, Noel Gallagher claimed that the row started after Liam requested that an advert for his clothing line Pretty Green be included in their tour, which Noel reportedly refused. Tensions had been building up well before then and that night was the final straw. In an interview with The Telegraph In 2019, Liam had assured that the group had not lasted because his brother wanted to be the only one able to write the songs.

The brothers had then released albums each on their own but whose success never matched that of Oasis. After repeated barbs on social networks for years, their relationship seems to have calmed down. The idea of ​​a reconciliation had even been launched by Liam in 2017 and it would finally be coming to fruition. “Noel and Liam will never be the best of friends, but they want to bring Oasis back for the fans. They are not getting any younger and the demand is huge. They have decided that it is now or never,” assured a source close to the group to Sun.
