This board has such an oddly heightened sense of what a stadium or arena act is right now
Green Day has gone on two stadium tours (yes, with other large acts, but still) in the last two years. Slipknot plays multiple arena nights in LA after playing a soccer stadium a couple years ago
Of course Oasis can play a dozen arenas in the U.S. for the first time in 15 years
what do those more popular bands have to do with where Oasis would play? Green Day is like the peak of millennial nostalgia.
We went from ‘Oasis is gonna play Coachella’ to ‘Oasis can’t even play arenas’ in record time.
Is it a “we” thing? I think everyone who thinks the former and everyone who thinks the latter made up their mind the instant the reunion rumors came out.
Less of a ‘we’ thing and more that the conversation has swayed from potential headliner to empty arena dates.

All acts playing in arenas this fall. Are you suggesting Oasis wouldn't play arenas in the U.S.?
If that's not enough Santana and REO Speedwagon are also playing the Forum on separate nights; not sure that's millennial nostalgia

I don't even know what point you're trying to make? most of those acts aren't touring arenas and I don't think any person here has suggested Oasis can't play an arena in LA.

The obvious difference is that both of those bands have active fan bases in the states who support them, and have for a long time.
The only way Oasis manages to fill arenas in non-top 5 markets is if they price very, very aggressively. Something like $25 nosebleeds/$75-100 lowers/floor. There's zero chance they come close to selling out Seattle/Charlotte/Phoenix/Pittsburgh with standard big-rock prices of $100 nosebleeds and $275+ lowers/floor. They're in a position where they can try to put butts in seats and make no money, or try to make money and play to half full or less venues. So good luck with that choice.
One of the board's bigger blind spots is not recognizing the self-selection bias of being someone who: a) was around for the short-lived peak of a UK band 30 years ago, b) actively posts on Inforoo dot com in the year 2024.
If you check the boxes for A and B it's likely that you are in the tippy top percentile of people that would care about an Oasis reunion.

Green Day has been a "stadium" act in one capacity or another for 20 years lol. I saw them play AT&T Park in 2005.

Those bands are American and have had cultural impact on multiple generations in America.
Young people in the US don't really care about Oasis like they do with Green Day, Slipknot, Blink 182, so on and so forth. Of course they'd sell out MSG and Staples but as far as a full scale run I do not see it happening. And even if they could move a decent amount of tickets it seems unlikely that the Gallaghers would want to be in Phoenix on a Wednesday, considering how they probably still don't like each other that much

Didn't Depeche Mode sell out like 40 dates in the US last year with a handful of them being in November / December? Those weren't the cheapest tickets either.

I’m not gonna got through all of those but King Gizz just came through DC and played a theater and just because Cigarettes After Sex booked arenas doesn’t mean they’re an arena band

Playing 1 or 2 arenas in big markets and having the rest of the tour be theaters/amph is not an arena tour. CAS is the only one of those acts actually doing an arena tour.
lot of debate about how much profit or loss live nation will have in 2025 in this thread. this seems p clearly a set fee deal, who cares how much they all make
