After years of speculation and fervent anticipation, the iconic British rock band Oasis has announced a long-awaited reunion tour.

The announcement, which sent shockwaves through the music industry and fans alike, was made on the band's official website. "Oasis today end years of feverish speculation with the confirmation of a long awaited run of UK and Ireland shows," the website stated.

In a cryptic yet evocative message, the band added, "The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised."

To accompany their announcement, Oasis shared a video montage of their previous performances, featuring roaring crowds and the undeniable chemistry that made them one of the most successful bands of the 1990s. "Me and Liam are telepathic if you know what I mean," the video clip shared on Instagram began.

The "Wonderwall" singers' announcement comes as a surprise to many, given their acrimonious split nearly 15 years ago. Oasis disbanded in 2009 after many years of infighting, with Noel officially leaving the band just before a performance at a festival near Paris.

Even before the dissolution, the brothers had long had an antagonistic relationship and reportedly did not speak to each other for years after the breakup. Noel, the band's guitarist and songwriter, wrote in a statement at the time, "People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer."

While the Gallagher brothers haven't performed together since, both regularly perform Oasis songs at their solo gigs. They've also each fired off criticisms of the other in the press.

Noel accused his younger brother of having a hangover that forced them to cancel a 2009 concert. The frontman disputed the accusation and sued, later dropping the lawsuit. In 2011, Noel told The Associated Press in an interview that he left the band after an incident where Liam started wielding a guitar "like an axe... and he's swinging this guitar around and he kind of you know, he took my face off with it, you know?"

Despite their past conflicts, Liam told the AP in 2019 that he was ready to reconcile. "The most important thing is about me and him being brothers," he said. "He thinks I'm desperate to get the band back together for money. But I didn't join the band to make money. I joined the band to have fun and to see the world."

"I don't know what his problem is," he continued. "I think he just wanted to go away and do his solo career, get all the coin and be surrounded by all the yes men you can fire and hire whenever he wants. You can't do that with me."

Now, it seems, the brothers have finally buried the hatchet. With their reunion tour, Oasis promises fans the same "spark and intensity" that occurs only when they appear on stage together.

The tour is set to kick off on July 4 and 5 at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales. The British rock band will also perform in Manchester, London, Edinburgh, and Dublin. Plans are in the works for the tour to extend to other continents outside of Europe later next year.

With the announcement of their reunion, Oasis has reignited the excitement and nostalgia of their fans worldwide. The upcoming tour promises to be a momentous occasion, bringing together one of the most iconic bands in music history for a series of unforgettable performances.
