Oasis announce limited last chance tickets for sale - but issue warning to fans
Oasis revealed they could release more tickets to their sold out shows in an exciting announcement shared on social media.
They said on X/Twitter: "As the shows are getting closer, Oasis promoters may be able to release a very limited number of additional tickets for sale once final sight lines are checked and the production is fine tuned. These final production releases will happen over the coming days. If you are an Oasismynet member, keep an eye on your inbox for an email from your regular Oasismynet or Ticketmaster correspondence address."
Oasis added: "Please double check the email is from the correct account before following links or sharing any purchase information."
Fans were over the moon over the possibility of getting additional tickets to the highly-anticipated shows. One user said: "Shut up I'm gonna cry." However, many briefly thought brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher had another falling out when they first got a glimpse of the announcement.
"My heart stopped I thought they broke up again," one said and another added: "Almost had a heart attack." One concerned user posted: "Long message I got scared they had a falling out."
The announcement of more tickets comes after fans were warned about potential scams as they searched the internet in hopes of finding tickets for the reunion shows.

Some fans claimed they were targeted by scammers as they try to find tickets for the gigs, which will take place in Manchester, London, Cardiff and Edinburgh across July, August and September.
One woman had said: "He said his only condition was that I sent him selfies from the gig, and he even sent me GIFs of the band with the catch line 'All Your Dreams Are Made'. And I thought they were. I thought he can't be. He was a lovely lad, I thought. We had calls and Facetimed, and he was so personable. I just feel so embarrassed and ashamed."
Oasis fans have been warned to be selective about where they buy their tickets. Not all these offers are genuine, with many coming from unverified brands and individual scammers on social media so fans have been warned.
In a bid to combat scams and ticket touts, the band have teamed up with Twickets for fans to resell tickets at face value to other fans.
Liam and Noel will be back together on stage for the first time in years after a backstage bust-up between the Gallagher brothers at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris in 2009, which led to a big fallout.
Liam recently discussed reuniting with his brother after feuding for years. One fan asked on X/Twitter : "How does it feel singing songs with ur brother again? Like old times? (sic)" The musician then replied: "You know what it's spiritual but I can't help think about all those wasted years, what a waste of PRECIOUS time (sic)."

Oasis tour weather forecast for Cardiff comeback gigs and banned items list
With a week to go, the weather predictions are getting more and more accurate for the Oasis comeback shows in Cardiff as Noel and Liam Gallagher appear on stage together for the first time Oasis fans travelling to Cardiff for the reunion shows have only a small risk of rain, according to the updated weather forecast. As Liam Gallagher famously sings in Cigarettes And Alcohol: you could wait for a lifetime to spend your days in the sunshine. Well the wait could be over! Up to 74,000 fans are expected each night in Cardiff at the Principality Stadium and bosses will be able to leave the famous roof open if they want to based on the predicted conditions. On Friday July 4, BBC weather says conditions will be "sunny with a gentle breeze" and temperatures around 21 degrees, dropping to around 17 degrees by the end of the show. On Saturday things look similar with "sunny intervals and a moderate breeze". Temperatures are similar but there is a 24% chance of rain several times in the afternoon meaning fans going into the stadium early may have to dodge a few showers. Banned items Fans heading to Cardiff for the first nights of the Live 25 tour also have a long list of things they can't bring into the stadium. According to the Principality Stadium's official website only small bags and handbags are allowed in the stadium. So any fans with larger rucksacks or suitcases will need to store them before they get there. The rules state: "Due to the current unprecedented security situation, it's better for everyone if you do not bring a bag at all. "We will not permit large bags into the stadium but you will be permitted to take small bags and handbags in with you. We class small bags as no larger than 35cm x 40cm x 19cm or standard handbags. There are no bag storage facilities available at the stadium – please plan ahead if you intend travelling to Cardiff with a large bag." Help is at hand as Cardiff has several companies that store large bags, including Stasher in the town centre which is open 24 hours a day. There is also a large list of items which are banned from entering the stadium. These include leaflets, banners and flags if they are deemed to be promotional, commercial, political or religious. As well as this the full list of banned items are: 'Fireworks, flares, pyrotechnics, all horns including air horns, musical instruments, smoke canisters, laser pointers, bottles, glasses, cans, cooking devices, banners, poles, large golf-type umbrellas, 'selfie 'sticks, knives, blades and other articles or containers – including any which could or might be used as a weapon – or any other item which in the reasonable opinion of the WRU Group, its servants or agents, could be used as a weapon or cause nuisance to others, are prohibited within the Stadium.'

Parking According to the Principality website the doors open for the first and second Oasis live 25 shows on July 4 and July 5 at 5pm. In terms of parking in Cardiff close to the stadium, it may pay to plan ahead as it is extremely limited, with no dedicated spectator parking options at or near the stadium. It's recommended to pre-book parking in city centre car parks, which are a short walk away from the stadium, to ensure a space and avoid the hassle of searching on the day. The stadium website says: 'There's plenty of parking options in the city centre, but there is no dedicated spectator car parking at or immediately near the stadium, so be sure to plan your journey in advance. 'Please note that for Stadium concerts and events, road closures will be in place – please check your specific event information for further details.' The largest car parks in Cardiff are the NCP car parks at Dumfries Place with 955 spaces and Knox Road with 747 spaces. Dumfries Place is a 23 minute walk to the stadium with Knox Road 20 minutes. Other options include apps which allow you to rent parking spaces from locals like just The nearest train station to the Principality Stadium is Cardiff Central, which operates mainline services from West Wales, the Midlands, the South Coast and London. Upon arriving into the station, the ground is a five-minute walk away. Noel and Liam Gallagher posed up together for the first time since the Oasis global tour was announced as part of an Adidas promotional campaign which launched in an advert on Channel 4 on June 12. In the past both Liam and Noel have also released their own Adidas trainers and Noel has spoken in the past about being obsessed with trainers. Oasis split following a backstage bust-up between the Gallaghers at Rock en Seine festival in Paris in 2009. But thankfully the brothers have now made up and it is believed Liam made the first move to patch things up. On X Liam said last year: "I called him but don't tell anyone as I don't want folk thinking I'm a soft lad and stuffs keep it between me n you cheers x." The reply laced with humour was typical of Liam's responses on social media. Last week Noel Gallagher told pals he was surprised how good the band sounded in rehearsals. On Oasis, U2 frontman Bono said: "I love them. I just love them. And what I really love is this, the sort of preciousness that had gotten a part of what was called indie music. They just blew it out. "And there was just a swagger. The sound of getting out of the ghetto, not glamorising it. And they're both funny, funny, funny. I'm still very close with Noel. And he got a message to me, and he says that he's kind of shocked by how great the band is. So I think we're going to have a good summer.' Noel and Liam will walk on stage for the first time together in public, since the band split nearly two decades ago, on July 4 at Cardiff's Principality Stadium. There will also be dates in Manchester, London and Dublin as part of the tour.

Oxford English Dictionary adds 13 Scottish words in update
This morning, June 25, it was revealed that the dictionary now features 13 new terms, all with Scottish origins. Several of these words, such as "Lorne sausage" and "morning rolls," have a food-based theme. READ MORE: Oasis gives fans sneak peak at merch pop-up shops ahead of huge tour The OED editors stated that a word is considered for inclusion after they have amassed enough independent examples of its usage "from a good variety of sources". They also require evidence that a word has been in use for a "reasonable amount of time." Some of the newly added words can be traced back to the 1700s and already feature in Scots language dictionaries. These Scottish terms are part of nearly 600 new words and phrases embraced by the OED. READ MORE: Oasis announce release of more tickets for reunion tour - Here's how to get yours Here is a full list of all the iconic Scottish terms that have been added: Aye, right - A sarcastic phrase - used ironically to express contempt or incredulity. Similar to "yeah, right". Beamer - A term for a flushed or blushing face, especially one resulting from embarrassment. Extended to mean a humiliating or shameful situation. Bummer - A person in a position of authority. Normally used in the expression "heid (head) bummer". It sometimes has a humorous suggestion of pomposity or officiousness. Chum - To join someone as a companion, as in "I'll chum you along". Hoaching - Crowded, swarming or thronging. It is derived from the verb "hotch" - to swarm', dating back to 1797. Lorne or Square sausage - Sausage meat formed into square slices that are grilled or fried. Morning roll - A soft white bread roll, its first usage dating back to Farmer's Magazine in 1801. Playpiece - A snack taken to school by children to eat during the morning break or playtime. Also used in Northern Ireland. Shoogly - A word used to mean unstable or wobbly. The OED cites it being used to describe to describe Glasgow's unsteady subway carriages. Skooshy - Applied to anything that can be squirted. Whipped cream squirted from an aerosol can is often called "skooshy cream" north of the border. Tattie scone - A type of flat savoury cake made with flour and mashed cooked potatoes. Goes nicely with square sausage on a morning roll. Well-fired - Refers to rolls baked until brown or black and crusty on top. The inclusion of these terms in the Oxford English Dictionary is a testament to their usage and significance in Scottish culture. They now stand alongside thousands of other words, each contributing to the vast and varied tapestry of the English language.

‘Liam had been drinking all night. Noel was not in a great mood': photographers pick their best Oasis shot
I didn't really know the Gallaghers then. I had only shot Oasis at the Q awards and live shows. In 2001, I was commissioned by a US publication for a feature about The US tour of Brotherly Love, with Oasis, the Black Crowes and Spacehog. All the bands had two brothers in them, and I had been asked to photograph the Gallaghers and the Robinsons from the Black Crowes together. The shoot was at the Scala in King's Cross, London. It was peak Oasis, but there was no entourage, nobody watching over my shoulder. There was also literally nowhere to shoot in the venue. I ended up finding a corridor with a white wall and I thought: 'I'll try and make this look as much like a studio as possible.' I think Liam was holding a can of Red Stripe and they were smoking. I started taking shots of them all together and then, being a savvy photographer, made sure I did lots of the Gallaghers on their own. It is very rare that you see pictures of them laughing: Noel's almost rolling his eyes. I wasn't really tuned into what they were saying – and I might not have even been able to hear. I certainly wasn't the one making them laugh. I was chuffed to get the chance to shoot them, but I felt like Liam had quite a front, and I couldn't really connect with him. I remember thinking: 'The shots are OK.' Now they feel a lot more classic – black and white, very contrasty – but that's something that only happens with the passing of time. Back at the very start of my career, when I was 25, I knew an art director who was working on a new magazine called Loaded. In May 1994, he rang and said: 'I've got a job for you.' He gave me the address of a hotel somewhere in Manchester and told me to meet a guy called Noel Gallagher. I thought he was a tour manager, at first. Nobody said he was actually in the band. The hotel was like an Edwardian house: the place was so depressing. The receptionist had that Mancunian ambivalence, very downbeat. I said I'm here to see Noel Gallagher and she gesticulated with her thumb. So I go down this corridor, knock on the door. He answers and just goes: 'All right?' That's it, devoid of any warmth. He'd split up with his girlfriend and they'd shared a flat, so the record company were paying for him to live at the hotel. He had this little pocket address book and was making phone calls. Each one was the same: 'All right, seen our kid? OK, bye.' I was sitting there like a lemon thinking: 'What is 'our kid'?' So I thought: 'I'll just take some pictures.' Then he got up and said: 'Let's go.' As we were leaving, he stopped and said: 'What do you think of Blur?' And I went: 'I quite like them.' 'Second-best band in Britain,' he said. We walked to this street corner and then four guys came from the opposite direction. You could identify the leader from 200 yards away, because he had this unbelievable walk. It was mad experiencing that walk. I quickly gathered Noel and Liam were brothers. They spoke to each other in such a relentlessly passive aggressive way. Noel would tut and roll his eyes at everything Liam said. Liam asked me what football team I supported. I said Arsenal. He put his hand up to my face and went: 'I can't even look at you.' For the actual shoot, we went to Maine Road [then Manchester City's home]. I got on the ground and he made as if he was kicking a football at the camera. Before that day, I had been living a very precarious existence. Afterwards, I started to get a lot of well-paid work. My wife's best friend knows Noel and a couple of years ago we both went to a birthday dinner at her house. I said to Noel: 'I often think of that photo as the day my career started.' He goes: 'I'll tell you why that's the day your career began – because that's the day you met Oasis.' Bands – especially ones with a pretty boy singer or a female singer – can get really nervous that the singer gets all the attention. Noel was never like that. He said: 'You've got to use the assets you've got.' Liam was a really attractive young boy at the time. You put that on the cover of a paper, you're going to sell a lot. Early on, I was asked by Creation Records to get Oasis used to being photographed and work out what kind of image suited them – whether we wanted a modern look or a 1960s vibe. I was from Manchester originally and Noel, Liam and I supported Manchester City, so the label thought I was the person to ease them into it. Bands are normally a little bit cocky when they first start, but Oasis weren't. They were like: 'Oh, I love those pictures you did of Joy Division.' So they were kind of in awe of me initially. In July 1994, we went to Manchester to do a big session for the NME. A couple of people at the NME were obsessed with the Beatles and wanted Oasis to be a bit like that, but I didn't really see that in them. They weren't yobby – they were quite sensitive, I felt – but by the same token, they were lads who went to watch football. And those were the people who liked the band. We went to Maine Road to do some photographs. This picture was taken from the steps of the entrance to the stadium. I like it because it's very monotone. Liam's shirt is pretty much reflected in the painted brickwork around the ground. At the time, City were sponsored by Brother, a Japanese electronics company, and to have 'Brother' on the shirts was an absolute gift. We did a lot of pictures of the band in the Manchester City shirts that day. That was meant to be the cover of the NME, but my editor said: 'I don't want them to be associated with losers' – because City were about to get relegated. Even now, people associate that shirt with the band. It was interesting because football wasn't fashionable in the way it is now – and it wasn't glamorous at all. It was very difficult for people outside the UK to get football shirts from English clubs but in Tokyo, fans in the front four rows of their shows were wearing Man City shirts. They must have written to the club and had them imported. In 1994, I was chief photographer for Melody Maker and that July I flew to New York for the Maker's first Oasis cover. We were booked on the same flight, but the band were in club class and me and the hack were in goats-and-chickens. Liam came back to say hello. He was a garrulous guy, even pre-fame. He was standing at the back of the plane having a beer and this woman came by huffing and puffing with some kids and Liam offered to look after one of them. He pulled down one of those seats the flight attendants sit on and had the girl on his lap and chatted to her. After the tales I'd heard, I'd thought I was about to spend a few days with a nutcase. But he was sweet as a nut. We were out there for four days. They were shooting a video and doing a gig. This shoot was on the third day and we'd over-grooved the night before. It was punishingly hot. We got on the subway, we walked here, walked there, looking for a location, then this woman from the label said: 'I know this place.' She took us to a disused bridge. It was amazing: you can see one of the greatest cities in the world behind the band. I think Liam bought the top in homage to John Lennon. There's a picture that Bob Gruen took of Lennon wearing a similar shirt. They're really good people. They had a tremendous professionalism, but they always had a cheekiness, too – and such a bloody great sense of humour. Especially Liam. He's a good laugh, a tremendous piss-taker. I first met Oasis when I was finishing a book called The Moment. The book started with a picture of Paul McCartney taken on an Instamatic and I was looking for an up-and-coming band to end on. I sent Oasis all the live shots I'd taken of them at their gig at the Cambridge Corn Exchange and they really liked them. From then on, I started documenting them with their blessing. This was taken in Paris the first year I was working with them, at the end of 1995. We were supposed to meet them in Noel's room but my assistant found Liam in the bar. It appeared he'd been up all night and was still drinking. Obviously, Noel was not in the greatest mood, having been kept waiting and then seeing that Liam was somewhat inebriated. I had done several shoots with them already, but never experienced the tension between the brothers that other photographers had recorded. I used to say to them: 'How come you never fight when I'm around?' This wasn't a fight, but it was a chance to document in a subtle way the dynamics. The brothers, who are looking in opposite directions, somehow they're touching but they're also so separate from each other. We were pursued by paparazzi, probably British, as we were walking along the banks of the Seine, which is where this was taken. Liam was a bit merry and was saying hello to French people. He is an unpredictable soul. He's a joy to photograph, but a challenging person all round. I was very experienced – I'd worked with the punks – so wasn't particularly fazed. I was quite a bit older than them, like a mother figure. That was useful because all of them were more or less brought up by their mums, so they were perhaps more likely to be cooperative with an older female. My brief from Noel was to just record stuff. They knew already that they couldn't spend hours posing for shoots with fashion accessories and so on, but Noel had the intuition that whatever was happening to them should be documented. If it had been a band that were very protective of their public image, I think the shoot would have been cancelled that day. But Oasis weren't like that. They permitted that closeness. I felt like part of the crew. That was the great joy of photographing them. Oasis: The Masterplan by Kevin Cummins is published by Cassell. Roll With it by Tom Sheehan is published by Welbeck. Oasis: Trying to Find a Way Out of Nowhere by Jill Furmanovsky and Noel Gallagher is published by Thames & Hudson on 23 September and available to pre-order.
