Oasis fans swoop on pop-up barber shop the ‘Gallaghairs' ahead of reunion tour gig
OASIS fans have swooped on a pop-up barber shop called "Gallaghairs" to "get the look" ahead of the bands Manchester gigs. The pop-up salon, in the Manchester Piccadilly Premier Inn, allowed fans to get the Gallagher brothers' iconic mod cut before heading to the show at the city's Heaton Park. 5 5 A professional barber was on hand - fully trained in providing the feathered and shaggy look, complete with long sideburns and a straight fringe. And before-and-after pictures show a delighted music lover going straight back to the 90s, via their hair at least, alongside a Liam lookalike. Tracey Bishop, Premier Inn regional manager Greater Manchester, which is welcoming thousands of Oasis fans to its hotels nationwide this summer, said: "From music tours to football tournaments, events always create a massive buzz in our hotels. "Spirits are sky high in Manchester, and we are excited to be a part of it. "The team are loving welcoming Oasis fans – the bucket hats are a bit of a giveaway at check-in. 'When you think of Oasis, first you think of the massive tunes, but from hats to parkas second on the list is always going to be their incredible style. 'The hair is as much a part of that as anything, so while we can't make people rock 'n' roll stars – we can at least make them look like one and have a comfy bed waiting at the end of the gig.' Levon Gill, the barber added: 'It was so much fun giving these fans such an iconic look. 'The mod style is so synonymous with Manchester, it's great to see we are still keeping it alive. "In our shop we've seen a real resurgence of Oasis style haircuts. Oasis kick off first Manchester homecoming gig after 16 years away "There have been lot of tourists come in to get one, but they wait until they get to Manchester to make sure to get the real deal.' The Gallagher brothers shot to fame in the mid-1990s after two colossally successful Oasis albums, Definitely Maybe in 1994 and (What's the Story) Morning Glory? in 1995. With both Liam and Noel sharing vocal duties, the fractious pair were as famous for their off-stage antics as their music. Thanks to their working-class attitude, the duo were immediate style sensations, with shaggy hair and parkas defining the look of the era. The band went through spats and breakups, finally calling things off for good in 2009 after a blazing row between the two brothers following a Paris gig. In 2024, they announced a reunion tour that sold out in minutes, with fans from around the globe clamouring for tickets. Tracey added: 'Oasis aren't just a band - they're part of people's life stories. 'Their music and style defined a generation, soundtracked major moments and gave fans a voice when they needed it most. 'These songs have always had the power to unite strangers, whether at a gig, a festival or singing in the street after a night out. 'Bringing people together for something this iconic is electric, and we are so proud to be playing our part in it – it's more than a concert, it's a cultural moment that will never be forgotten.' 5 5

Bayer Wins Hormone-Free Treatment Approval for Women in the UK
Bayer BAYRY announced that it has won approval for pipeline drug elinzanetant in the UK for the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms (VMS or hot flashes) associated with menopause. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency, a regulatory authority in the UK, has authorized the use of elinzanetant, under the brand name Lynkuet for the above-mentioned indication. Year to date, shares of Bayer have rallied 67% compared to the industry 's gain of 2.7%. More on Bayer's Elinzanetant Elinzanetant is the first dual neurokinin (NK)-targeted therapy (NK-1 and NK- 3 receptor antagonist), which has been globally developed for the treatment of moderate to severe VMS associated with menopause or endocrine therapy for breast cancer, administered orally once daily. The marketing authorization in the UK marks the drug's first global approval. The approval was based on positive results from the late-stage studies OASIS-1, OASIS-2, and OASIS-3, which evaluated the efficacy and safety profile of elinzanetant. Results from the study showed that elinzanetant met all primary endpoints in all three studies and demonstrated a favorable safety profile. We note that elinzanetant is under regulatory review in the United States, countries of the European Union and other markets around the world. The approval of this hormone-free treatment is not only a transformative therapeutic advance for millions of women worldwide but also a compelling growth catalyst for Bayer's pharmaceutical division. As the first drug targeting both NK-1 and NK-3 receptors, it sidesteps the risks and contraindications associated with estrogen therapy, making it an attractive option for millions, including breast cancer survivors or women avoiding hormone-based interventions. BAYRY's Efforts to Strengthen Pharma Business Bayer's new products, such as Nubeqa and Kerendia, continue to maintain their impressive momentum in the Pharmaceutical division and offset the negative impact of a decline in Xarelto sales. The company is working to expand the labels of these key drugs, which should boost its top-line growth. Last month, the FDA expanded Nubeqa's label for a third indication for patients with advanced prostate cancer. The successful development of additional drugs is imperative for Bayer amid multiple challenges. BAYRY expects to launch two new drugs — elinzanetant and acoramidis, a drug for the treatment of a certain type of heart disease. The company also aims to strengthen its pharmaceutical pipeline. In 2021, Bayer acquired a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, Vividion Therapeutics, to expand into precision small-molecule therapeutics, primarily in oncology and immunology. BAYRY has expanded its pipeline in new modalities of cell therapy through the acquisition of BlueRock, and in gene therapy, through the AskBio buyout. Bayer's Zacks Rank & Other Key Picks BAYRY currently carries a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). A couple of other top-ranked stocks in the large-cap pharma sector are Novartis NVS and Johnson & Johnson JNJ, both carrying a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) at present.
