Oasis: fans gutted as Liam Gallagher suggests how long the reunion set will be during long-awaited shows

The long-awaited Oasis reunion shows are fast approaching, with the first performance in Cardiff around 5 months away - but controversy once again dogs the Gallagher brothers.

With fans having already expressed their fury when tickets originally went on sale in late 2024, contending with dynamic pricing and queues on Ticketmaster, the latest cause celebre comes when asked how long the reunion shows are expecting to last per performance.

When asked on social media, Liam Gallagher responded “"59 minutes 59 secs,” which elicited less-than-favourable reactions among fans in response to his comment - albeit, perhaps Gallagher is not taking into account potential encores during the tour.

Fans were quick to point out how far they are travelling to see the reunion shows, however some fans were not surprised by the response. One quipped: “No way they do anything under 2 hours after the prices they charged and the media hype. 30-40 minute Noel set to get them to 2 hours I bet."

While another recalled: "I saw Liam in Washington DC in 2018. He performed for 54 minutes with no opening act. Needless to say, I was a little disappointed." However others felt it was just Liam Gallagher ‘winding up’ fans online, with one user on X writing: “"I would say he’s on a wind-up, but I went to a show where he played less than an hour. Maybe Noel can pick up hour 2."

The latest outrage comes after Gallagher defended the band regarding Ticketmaster cancelling up to 50,000 tickets that were flagged suspicious transactions, aiming to prevent ticket scalping. However, this also resulted in some legitimate fans losing their tickets, sparking frustration.

Liam Gallagher acknowledged the situation but distanced himself from it, stating, "I don't make the rules. We're trying to do the right thing. It is what it is. I'm the singer. Get off my case."
