Oasis rehearsing in stadium ahead of start of reunion tour
The band kick off the Oasis Live '25 tour this Friday (04.07.25) at the stadium in Wales, which will be the first time Noel Gallagher and Liam Gallagher have performed together in 16 years.
The brothers have made the decision to practice on the stadium stage because they have a fresh line-up - which also includes guitarists Gem Archer and original member Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs, bassist Andy Bell, new drummer Joey Waronker and keyboard player Christian Madden - and have been away for so long.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "With a new line-up and it being such a huge first show, the boys will do some songs inside the venue, too.
"Some tours would take a week or two to get into the groove again but there is no time for that and Liam and Noel want every night to be massive."
Last week, Noel, 58, teased that rehearsals had gone very well and he and "our kid" Liam, 52, were sounding great ahead of the tour kicking off.
Appearing on radio station TalkSPORT, he said: "We've got a few days off now and it's sounding huge, so we're all, well this is it, there's no going back now. It's good.'
Oasis will perform to 74,500 fans on the opening night in Cardiff, and they then play a second night at the Principality Stadium on Saturday night (05.07.25) before taking the tour to Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin before jetting off around the globe.
A number of Oasis pop-up stores are opening in the UK and Ireland this summer in the cities hosting the concerts all selling exclusive merchandise.
Amazon.co.uk has also launched the ultimate Oasis fan store hub, where you can purchase exclusive merchandise.
Prime members can save up to 15 per cent on limited edition Oasis CDs, Vinyl and other merch during this summer's Prime Day event from July 8 to July 11.
Fans can also get their hands on previous tour apparel from the band's illustrious 30-year history, available exclusively on Amazon. As well as the "Knebworth 1996" range, fans can now order the beloved 'Be Here Now 1997' dice logo apparel, including t-shirts (in black and white), a long sleeve shirt and a hoodie exclusively on Amazon. This iconic merch design was initially released in celebration of the UK and EU leg of the legendary 'Be Here Now' world tour in 1997, and includes the original Oslo, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Exeter, Newcastle, Aberdeen, Sheffield, London and Birmingham dates on the back.
Amazon is also offering fans the chance to win two tickets to one of the band's sold-out Wembley shows on either September 27 or 28.
From July 8 until July 22, fans should head to the Amazon Oasis Homepage and follow the instructions. Two lucky winners will get a pair of tickets each.
Amazon Music has also curated a special 'Oasis REDISCOVER' playlist filled with the biggest hits and cult classics for fans to enjoy ahead of the stadium tour kicking off.

Rosie O'Donnell eviscerates Jeff Bezos and ‘fake fembot' Lauren Sánchez for gluttonous $76 million wedding: ‘Sold his soul'
Rosie O'Donnell tore apart Jeff Bezos and his 'fake fembot wife,' Lauren Sánchez, for their over-the-top $50 million ($76 million AUD) wedding in Venice, Italy. 'The BEZOS wedding,' the comedian wrote via Instagram Monday, along with alleged photos of the former journalist's appearance before and after cosmetic work. O'Donnell called out the 'billionaires' who gathered for the nuptials 'in the gross excess of it all' — adding that it 'turned [her] stomach.' 'Is Oprah friends with Jeff Besos [sic] really — how is that possible,' the 'View' alum, 63, continued. O'Donnell claimed the Amazon founder 'treats his employees with disdain' and that 'by any metric he is not a nice man.' She then called out Sánchez, saying, 'And his fake fem bot [sic] wife who looks like that. Why would he choose her after the salt of the earth Mackenzie.' The 'League of Their Own' star was referring to Bezos' first wife, MacKenzie Scott, whom he was married to from 1993 to 2019. 'Sold his soul is what it looks like from here. The devil is smiling at all his conquests,' O'Donnell concluded. Reps for Bezos, 61, and Sánchez, 55, were not immediately available to Page Six for comment. Social media users in O'Donnell's comments section were divided over her harsh commentary about the newlyweds. 'We've lost touch completely. With what's real, with what matters, with each other,' one person agreed. 'All those members of the arts … it's disappointing, really,' another added. 'I was shocked to see Leonardo DiCaprio there … Mr Climate change himself partying with one of the most destroyed people on the planet,' a third chimed in. But Robin Thicke's wife, April Love Geary, was one of many to chide O'Donnell, writing, 'I'm not a fan of them — but I don't think it's a good look to make fun of other people's appearances. 'I'm all for disliking people because of how they treat others/etc but it is sad to see women post overly edited pictures of women and talk poorly about their appearances so publicly.' 'Can't we just stick to talking about how Bezos treats his employees terribly? Why do we have to tear women's looks apart on social media,' Geary continued. 'This is called bullying … so sad … it's sad to see women bullying other women,' another person echoed. Bezos and Sánchez were also shaded by Charlize Theron, who said 'they suck' while speaking at a charity event over the weekend. The couple invited A-list guests, including the Kardashians, Orlando Bloom and Sydney Sweeney, to their extravagant three-day wedding celebration, which began with a welcome party on Thursday evening. They then tied the knot on San Giorgio Maggiore island Friday and hosted a pajama-themed party the following night. The weekend came to a close as several celebrities were spotted leaving for the airport on Sunday.

'They suck': Oscar winner Charlize Theron slams Jeff Bezos' star-studded $50million wedding to Lauren Sánchez in shock comments
Charlize Theron has ripped into attendees of billionaire Amazon mogul Jeff Bezos' wedding to journalist Lauren Sánchez in a blistering speech at a Hollywood event. The Monster actress, 49, deliever the caustic remarks while hosting the fifth annual Block Party for the Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project in Los Angeles on Saturday. "I think we might be the only people who did not get an invite to the Bezos wedding," the actress deadpanned onstage during the event on the Universal Studios backlot. "But that's OK because they suck and we're cool," Theron added, per The Hollywood Reporter. The Oscar winner went on to thank her guests for 'taking the time to be a part of this, especially when the world feels like it's burning because it is.' Theron continued, "Here in Los Angeles, in the US and across the globe, we're moving backwards fast. Immigration policy has destroyed the lives of families, not criminals; women's rights are becoming less and less every day; queer and trans lives are increasingly being erased; and gender-based violence is on the rise. "This isn't just policy, it's personal." As the crowd applauded her remarks, she reportedly added, "Yeah, f**k them." While Theron was not on the guest list for Bezos and Sánchez's three-day wedding extravaganza, a plethora of A-listers and power players flocked to Venice to celebrate the couple. Kim and Khloé Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Tom Brady, Orlando Bloom, Ivanka Trump, Leonardo DiCaprio, Oprah Winfrey, Usher, Sydney Sweeney and more celebrities attended the festivities. The itinerary included a lavish welcome party and an 'all-nighter' pajama-themed bash — in addition to the main ceremony on San Giorgio Maggiore island that included performances by Matteo Bocelli and Ellie Goulding. However, the over-the-top affair was met with backlash from Venice protesters who demanded Bezos, 61, pay more taxes. Prior to the wedding, international environmental group Greenpeace displayed a large banner directed at the Amazon founder in St. Mark's Square. A laughing Bezos was pictured alongside the words: 'If you can rent Venice for your wedding you can pay more tax.' The organization also took to Instagram to share a video of banner being unveiled, claiming in their caption, 'Jeff Bezos pays his staff poverty wages and dodges tax. No wonder he can afford to shut down half of Venice for his wedding this week.'
