Liam Gallagher issues six-word response after Oasis reunion is mocked on Saturday Night Live
The Oasis superstar responded to a fan on X about the skit
Liam Gallagher has reacted to a sketch of him and his brother Noel on Saturday Night Live – asking one hilarious question.
The Oasis frontman was tagged in a clip of the SNL skit that aired over the weekend on the US show on X. Reposting the sketch with James Austin Johnson and Sarah Sherman, a fan tagged Liam and asked ‘have you seen this?’.
The superstar singer was seemingly left unimpressed. He asked the fan: “Are they meant to be comedians[?]”.
In the sketch, the pair promised host Colin Jost that they wouldn’t break up before Oasis’ highly-anticipated reunion tour next year. When asked whether they would be ‘cool’ to tour, Johnson’s Noel said: “I’m cool if he’s cool”.
“I’m cool, I’m cool, I’m cooler than you are,” Sherman’s Liam said. “It’s not a hard no, it’s a maybe.” Johnson then started belting out the ‘I said maybe’ lyrics of Wonderwall before changing the lyrics to ‘if Liam doesn’t act like a baby’.
This week Oasis announced more new dates for their historic reunion tour in 2025, with the band adding more shows in Sydney and Melbourne. It takes the number of announced dates now for the Burnage brothers to 30 stadium gigs across the UK and Ireland, North America and now Australia.
All 28 previously announced Oasis shows sold out within minutes of going on general sale. A jaw-dropping 10 million fans tried to get hold of the first 1 million UK and Ireland gig tickets available when they went on sale last month making it the biggest concert launch ever seen in the UK.
‘You Better Take Cover’: Oasis Extend Reunion Tour to Australia
The Britpop legends have announced two stadium dates in Australia.
Oasis has extended their highly anticipated Live 25 reunion tour to Australia.
As confirmed by Rolling Stone AU/NZ last week, the Britpop legends have announced two stadium dates, with a performance at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium on Friday, Oct. 31, followed by a show at Sydney’s Accor Stadium on Friday, Nov. 7.
“People of the land down under. You better run – you better take cover… We are coming. You are most welcome. Oasis will tour Australia in 2025!” a message posted to Oasis’ X (formerly Twitter) account on Oct. 8 read.
The band’s return to Australia comes after a string of sold-out dates across Europe and the U.S., reflecting the huge demand for Oasis nearly 25 years after their debut. U.S. dates include a stop at Madison Square Garden in New York on June 14 and a show at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on June 21.
As part of the reunion tour, fans can expect to hear hits from the band’s extensive catalog, including tracks like “Wonderwall,” “Champagne Supernova,” and “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” which saw Oasis emerge as one of the most influential rock bands of the ’90s.
Oasis’ impact in Australia has been major. Their second album, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, spent four weeks at No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart and is certified eight times platinum. The single “Wonderwall” was also voted the No. 1 song in triple j’s “Hottest 100” for 1995.
Pre-sale tickets for the Australian leg of the tour will be available starting Wednesday, Oct. 9, with general sale beginning on Tuesday, Oct. 15.
The Gallaghers will kick off the North American leg of their tour with two shows at Toronto’s Rogers Stadium on Aug. 24 and 25, followed by a performance at Chicago’s Soldier Field on August 28.
They’ll then head to New Jersey for two nights at MetLife Stadium on August 31 and Sept. 1, before wrapping up the U.S. run with two shows at the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles on Sept. 6 and 7. The band will also make a stop in Mexico City on Sept. 12. These are Oasis’ first North American shows in over 16 years.
The last time Oasis played the U.S. in 2008 on the Dig Out Your Soul tour they performed in 10,000-20,000 capacity arenas. The stadiums on their upcoming North American swing will accommodate between 45,000-80,000+ fans.
