Liam Gallagher has revealed he’s up for an Oasis reunion if his beloved football team, Manchester City, win the Champions League.
The 50-year-old made the admission after a fan asked whether the rockers would play together if Man City won the tournament, to which he replied: “I’m ready to go”.
And it seems the frontman isn’t the only member of the group ready for a reunion with Paul ‘Bonehead’ Arthurs revealing he too is ready for a comeback.
The 57-year-old told Toby Tarrant on Radio X: “See that bag under there? Plectrums in there. I’m ready.”
Over the bank holiday weekend, the guitarist discussed his thoughts about a potential reunion during his Radio X special, Bonehead’s Bank Holiday, and said it would be worth it for their younger fans.
He said: “Some days you wake up and think ‘Nah, there’s no need for it. It’s been done.’ But when I’m on stage with Liam Gallagher as a solo artist, and I come out and we play Rock ‘n’ Roll Star and the place erupts.
“People are bouncing higher and harder than they did at some of the gigs back in the day.
Adding: “I look at that first ten rows when I’m playing an arena with Liam, and they’re like 16 or 17 years of age. These people weren’t even born until well into Oasis’s career.
“So, if there was a reunion, wouldn’t it be worth it for them? To come and witness that band? In that sense it would be worth just one gig next year for those kids at the front, who are jumping and bouncing at Liam’s gigs.”
Despite Bonehead’s hope for reunion, Noel recently poured water on a potential Oasis comeback ahead of the 30th anniversary of the band’s debut album, Definitely Maybe, in 2024.
While he has promised something special for fans, he insisted it won’t be a tour.
He told Italian newspaper Corriere Della Sera last month: “In the Sony archives we’ve found tapes dating to those sessions. We thought they were lost, but they were mislabelled. They are wonderful versions of those songs, some acoustic versions.
“There won’t be a tour – we won’t come back to play them together.”
Liam and brother Noel, 55, have have barely spoken since a huge backstage bust-up ended their band Oasis, in August 2009.
Since the super-group disbanded, Liam started band Beady Eye before launching his solo career in 2017 with album As You Were, while Noel has enjoyed much success with his band, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, since 2010.
