An Oasis fan bemoaned young women buying tickets for their Britpop heroes and this A++ comeback got a standing ovation
There is of course an Oasis fan of a certain age who will be super excited about the reunion of Liam and Noel Gallager for a 14-date tour of the UK and Ireland announced today.
The guns have fallen silent.
The stars have aligned.
The great wait is over.
Come see.
It will not be televised. pic.twitter.com/u1Mge33poT— Liam Gallagher (@liamgallagher) August 27, 2024
And when we say Oasis fan of a certain age, we obviously mean this.

But it’s not just people who might not have had the chance to see them first time round who will be buying tickets. Some of them might actually be young and – gasp – some of them might also be women.
And we say that because it was an issue highlighted by this Oasis fan – well, we presume they are a fan – over on Twitter.
And we’re glad they did – sort of – because it got lots of very funny and totally on-point responses.
@NoelGallagher please find someone called Chloe who is 21 and from Stockport, and give them a free ticket.

Why is a new generation of fans less deserving? It was teens listening the first time around too

But surely no-one said it better than this exchange which began like this.
One of Liams main reasons for wanting it back is for the newer generation to experience it live but Billy, 45 from Ireland would cry his eyes out if he misses out on tickets

To which @BillyCorcoran replied that they’re only 30.
I’m not having that! I’m 30.
