Fans quickly flooded the comments with excitement. One fan wrote: 'Shakin' in ma boots.'
Another added: 'I'm not sure my nerves can handle this.'
However, one fan feared the brothers had fallen out again, based on the tone of the announcement, writing: 'I got scared they had a falling out for a second because of the long message. I don't know why.'
Another echoed that sentiment: 'Omg this looked like a statement saying they'd fallen out again.'

The Glasgow Times previously reported that the duo had left fans baffled when a secret presale went live back in May.
The presale was made available for all of the band's shows, including the Edinburgh dates at Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium on 8, 9, and 12 August.
This followed controversy earlier in the year, when many fans had their tickets for the band's reunion tour cancelled by Ticketmaster, who claimed bots had made the purchases.
Several fans of the Manchester band voiced their frustration at being accused of violating ticketing rules when attempting to secure seats for Oasis Live '25, which kicks off on 4 July.

Oasis tour Manchester Heaton Park full line up confirmed with new set times
Oasis bring their tour to Manchester Heaton Park shortly and details of the full line up are confirmed with new set times The support acts playing at Heaton Park as part on the Oasis tour in Manchester are sure to delight most fans - as they have regularly played with Oasis in the past. The first act playing at Oasis Live 25 will be Cast, the Liverpool band formed in 1992 by John Power and best known for their 1995 albums All Change. Speaking about playing on the tour, John told the Mirror he will be their as an Oasis fan as well as playing before them. The band split up in 2001 but reformed in 2010 and last year they toured as support for Liam Gallagher as he played a Definitely Maybe Oasis tour which fans loved. And now the Manchester frontman has personally got them back for the Oasis shows. John said: "I got a call from a number, and I have got Liam and Noel's numbers and all that, but it was a different number, and I don't normally answer them. And I picked it up, and it was Debbie, Liam's manager and his wife, and Liam in the background as well. And then Liam, he'd just spoken to Noel and they just discussed it, and they just said, 'You know, look, we just spoke to our kid. Do you want to open up on the tour?' "I was like, 'You know, I think I do actually!' And it was a really cool conversation, and then we were blown away like, I mean, it was like the best news we could have hoped for." He adds: "It's the biggest tour this year and it authenticates the legacy of Cast. This is a band in previous years if there was a Britpop list, top 20, we wouldn't even be in it. But now you can't do it. Because it's like the biggest band of that time are saying 'check this out'." As well as the call from Liam, Cast firmly have the Oasis seal-of-approval with Noel Gallagher previously describing frontman John as being 'as cosmic as the day is long.' Fans can expect John to belt out 'Alright' and 'Finetime' to fire up audiences from the off, while slow burners such as 'Sandstorm' and 'Walkaway' are perfect for early singalongs in the stadiums. After touring with Oasis, Cast will then be on the road themselves with dates going through the year. The second and main support act will be Richard Ashcroft, the former Verve frontman. He has been playing alongside Oasis since the Nineties when they began. When they started out Oasis would support The Verve at shows because they were the bigger band. Speaking about the upcoming tour, Richard said: "I see it as I've got a very important part to play in this. "You know, back in the day Oasis supported The Verve and then it flipped around and we supported Oasis at Earls Court, then I as a solo artist have played with Oasis." He went on to tell the Chris Moyles Show on Radio X: "I said to Noel, 'You know, I think I'm the only person who could go in this slot. Especially for a huge outdoor show, because everyone wants you lot. And unless you're coming with something, unless you've got something to offer, I don't know what's gonna happen'." A two-time Ivor Novello Award winner (Songwriter of the Year and Outstanding Contribution To British Music), Ashcroft has become an accomplished and influential songwriters. His first chapter with The Verve reached a remarkable peak with 'Urban Hymns', and his support slot is sure to be a hit-laden set with the likes of 'Bitter Sweet Symphony', 'The Drugs Don't Work', 'Lucky Man' and 'Sonnet'. These tracks made Urban Hymns one of the biggest selling albums in UK history with 11 x Platinum certifications. As well as the Oasis Live 25 tour, Ashcroft will play select headline shows and festivals this Summer. Oasis have now confirmed via a link on their official website that the gates at Heaton park will open at 3pm. The information is provided on which sold tickets for the shows and also states: 'The music will finish at 22:30 and food vendors will remain open until 23:00.' Both support acts will be expected to play 30-45 minutes on stage, before the main event of Oasis back on stage for the first time since 2009. When Catfish and The Bottlemen played at Heaton Park in June their show also finished at 10.30 and they came on at 9pm, although Oasis are expected to play a longer set. Their support act played from 7.30pm-8.25 with DJs on beforehand. Cast would therefore be on stage around 6pm, followed by Richard Ashcroft, with Oasis taking to the stage around 8pm. It's thought the band will get a DJ playing before the bands, something Liam did on his Definitely Maybe tour last year. It's thought some tickets for Oasis show will become available in the coming days after the band made an announcement on social media. The tour kicks off in Cardiff on July 4 and then continues to Manchester before moving onto London's Wembley stadium. Get Oasis updates straight to your WhatsApp!

Ticket touts employing workers to bulk-buy for concerts
Ticket touts are employing teams of workers to bulk-buy tickets for the UK's biggest concerts like Oasis and Taylor Swift so they can be resold for profit, a BBC investigation has uncovered some touts are making "millions" hiring people overseas, known as "ticket pullers", with one telling an undercover journalist his team bought hundreds of tickets for Swift's Eras tour last year. Our reporter, posing as a would-be tout, secretly recorded the boss of a ticket pulling company in Pakistan who said they could set up a team for us and potentially buy hundreds of UK government plans new legislation to crack down on touts but critics argue it does not go far enough. More than 900,000 tickets were sold for Oasis's long-awaited reunion tour, which starts in Cardiff next thousands of frustrated fans failed to get tickets for the sell-out gigs after spending hours in online queues. Shortly after pre-sale, where a limited number of fans could buy Oasis tickets when they went on sale in August, tickets for their UK gigs were being listed on resale websites like StubHub and Viagogo for more than £6,000 - about 40 times the face value of a standing found genuine fans missed out or, in desperation, ended up paying way over the odds as touts have an army of people working for them to buy tickets for the most in-demand events as soon as they go on sale. Ali, the boss of the ticket pulling company, boasted to our undercover reporter that he'd been successful at securing tickets for popular gigs."I think we had 300 Coldplay tickets and then we had Oasis in the same week - we did great," he told claimed he knew of a UK tout who made more than £500,000 last year doing this and reckons others are "making millions". Our research found pullers buy tickets using illegal automated software and multiple identities which could amount to ticket pulling boss, based in India, told BBC Wales Investigates' undercover reporter: "If I'm sitting in your country and running my operations in your country, then it is completely illegal."We do not participate in illegal things because actually we are outside of the UK."A man who worked in the ticketing industry for almost 40 years showed us how he infiltrated a secret online group that claims to have secured thousands of tickets using underhand methods. Reg Walker said members of the group could generate 100,000 "queue passes" - effectively allowing them to bypass the software that creates an online queue for told the BBC's The Great Ticket Rip Off programme this was the equivalent of "100,000 people all of a sudden turning up and pushing in front of you in the queue".He added: "If you are a ticketing company and an authorised resale company, and someone decides to list hundreds of tickets for a high-demand event... my question would be, where did you get the tickets? There's no due diligence."Fans are usually limited to a handful of tickets when buying from primary platforms such as Ticketmaster. Touts often list their tickets on resale websites and one former Viagogo employee alleged he had seen some profiles with thousands of tickets for sale."They [touts] buy in bulk most of the time in the hope of reselling and making a profit," he said, speaking on condition of anonymity."I don't know how they get their hands on them but I know that at some point they would have bought tickets in bulk in serious numbers."You're not allowing a lot of people to get access because you're hoarding the tickets." Viagogo said it refutes this man's claims, insisting 73% of sellers on its site sold fewer than five tickets each - and other sellers included sports clubs and is not just music concerts targeted by touts as the BBC found evidence of thousands of Premier League football tickets being advertised 1994 it has been a criminal offence to resell tickets for football matches in the UK unless authorised, with the maximum penalty being a £1,000 fine. But we found 8,000 tickets being advertised illegally online for more than face value for Arsenal's Premier League game with Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium on 16 of those sellers was a semi-professional footballer based in the Stolboushkin has openly advertised tickets for football games totalling more than £60,000 on social media in the past year sold our reporter a single ticket at double the face value. Mr Stolboushkin did not respond to multiple attempts to contact him about these potentially illegal practice in the UK is "speculative selling", where touts list tickets for resale without owning them. There is no guarantee these touts will actually secure a ticket and "speculative selling" was one of the reasons two touts were jailed for fraud in investigation found at least 104 seats being "speculatively" listed on Viagogo for Catfish and the Bottlemen's August concert at Cardiff's Principality exact seats appeared to be for sale at the same time on both Ticketmaster, the original point of sale, and Viagogo. After we presented our evidence to Viagogo, it said: "Listings suspected to be in contravention of our policy have been removed from the site."The UK government is looking at measures to try and tackle the issue, but evidence of the challenges faced can be seen in the Republic of Ireland. In 2021, laws were introduced there to stop the resale of tickets above face value, but the BBC found this being included tickets to see the band Kneecap selling for four times their face value of €59 (£50), while tickets for the Six Nations Ireland v France rugby clash in Dublin were selling for £3,000. One of Ireland's biggest promoters, Peter Aiken, said he had never heard of the company selling the tickets and questioned if the tickets existed at ticket companies selling in Ireland are based overseas, which the BBC has been told helps them avoid punishment under Irish resale prices of tickets and regulating resale platforms was one of Sir Keir Starmer's manifesto pledges ahead of last year's general he is prime minister, the UK government has held a consultation with proposals including a price cap that ranges from the original price to 30% above face value, introducing larger fines and a new licensing regime. But Dame Caroline Dinenage, chairwoman of the UK government's cross-party Culture, Media and Sport committee said: "It's a minefield for people who just want to buy tickets for an event they want to enjoy."This evidence proves that there is not enough activity going on either from the government, in some cases from the police and certainly from some of these really big online organisations to be able to clamp down on this sort of activity."The Conservative MP said this investigation highlighted "what a lot of consumers are already seeing that there is a whole world of, in some cases illegal, but it all cases immoral activity going on in the ticketing sphere"."People are having to pay over the odds because others quite often are operating outside of the UK to make an absolute killing on buying up tickets, selling them at a huge premium and in some cases selling tickets that don't exist at all," she UK government's aim is to "strengthen consumer protections and stop fans getting ripped off", according to the UK culture Nandy added she wanted to "ensure money spent on tickets goes back into our incredible live events sector, instead of into the pockets of greedy touts".

Oasis announce they may release more reunion tour tickets in coming days
Oasis have announced they may release a 'very limited number' of tickets for their much-anticipated reunion tour in the coming days. Bickering brothers Noel, 58, and Liam Gallagher, 52, are set to kick off their Oasis Live '25 tour in Cardiff on July 4 after a 16-year wait. Having split in 2009 and famously feuded ever since, the Manchester-born brothers sent Britpop fans into utter meltdown last year on announcing they'd made peace, and were reforming Oasis for a mega tour. Unlucky fans thought their hopes were dashed when tickets for the 17 gigs were snapped up and sold out the day they landed. Many UK fans were left in a disappointing queue, only to get into the website and find inflated ticket prices. But now there is another chance to get Oasis tickets coming in a matter of days, the band has announced. — Oasis (@oasis) June 25, 2025 Taking to X, Oasis said: '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. 'Please double check the email is from the correct account before following links or sharing any purchase information.' One fan @jakehoward19 had already spied an email in his inbox, which was inviting him to queue for tickets on Thursday June 26 at 8am. The email said tickets had been made available for Cardiff, Manchester and Edinburgh shows, and that they were selected from being 'identified as a loyal fan who does not already have tickets'. There is a ticket limit of four tickets per code, which will only be valid for 24 hours 'or until tickets sell out'. 'Codes do not guarantee tickets, just the opportunity to join the sale,' the email adds. Wondering if they will have a repeat experience of last August, the X user and Oasis fan said: 'Can't wait to be upset again tomorrow.' Richard Yendell has already found success, as he took to X and said: 'I got the email over the weekend. It's for anyone who originally applied and joined the waiting room etc. 'Think there's not that many as I only had to queue for 1 minute and got 4 x standing to the opening night. Could not believe it!' Up Next While it's not clear exactly which dates and venues are up for grabs, after Cardiff the brothers will be heading to their native Manchester for a five-night run, and London's Wembley Stadium at the end of the month. Edinburgh and Dublin dates are set for August, before Noel and Liam head over to kick off the North America leg of their tour. The brothers will be back – if all goes to plan – to perform two more Wembley shows in September. Many are also wondering if Oasis will be using Ticketmaster's controversial dynamic pricing for this drop of tickets, but it seems unlikely, as reps told Metro in September they had scrapped the demand-driven costing model for their added UK dates.
