I need a Scissor Sisters reunion...STAT...or even Jake Sheers with Baby Daddy sit in on a song or two!!
Yessssss a Scissor Sisters reunion would be incredible.
They had a Hot Hot Heat reunion for JLH til they scrapped it after a week ,so its in the realm of possibilities. Ta Dah turns 20 in 2026 so maybe thats the key here.
oasis reunion tour being announced in september according to some rando on reddit
if this is real im gonna look so smart
Cause paul hadnt been trying for this the whole time?
And going back on efestivals, somebody has Oasis at Heaton Park next year with a September announce just 2 weeks ago. To add fuel to the Wembley fire there is a 12 date block booked out next July. The 11th to the 22nd. 👀
Apparently if you havent crossed 50 youre not a legacy act to people.
The OP did say "before they retire or pass away" so I was thinking artists who are old enough that they could potentially pass away (from old age) within the next decade

Even if true, I doubt Oasis plays Coachella as their first show back over a venue in the UK. If anything would be more likely in 2026 I’d think. Though I’d be all for it

Considering he's been trying to get them for years, I wouldn't be surprised if PT threw a bag of cash at them and grabbed their first show back. I'm obviously biased but if they wanted to make their first show back a big splash, playing Coachella seems like the better choice rather than just doing their own UK show (plus less overhead and logistics they have to worry about if playing a festival).

If they actually reunite they’re doing it exclusively for the money. They can sell out however many dates at Wembley next summer, then add Coachella and cash that check too if they think the offer is good enough.

It's not like reunions consistently happen in the group's home base anyhow. Outkast obviously didn't come back in Atlanta (same with some other Coachella reunions). I'm reading Springsteen's autobiography and was a bit surprised the E Street Band reunion started out in Spain, not Jersey (or like, anywhere in America. Part of that's certainly due to money, some driven by what'll create the most buzz, but also I could imagine some acts would rather sort out the kinks in a reunion before making a triumphant return home, so they're firing on all cylinders at that point.
Anyway gimme Oasis next year. If they really want to do the UK first they can schedule a show there a week before.
I don't think that money is the biggest motivation in the eventual Gallagher reunion because they're going to get paid either way. I do suspect they're going to want a home team audience for their first shows back. A half filled polo grounds field versus a ravenous UK stadium is a big difference. Liam and Noel are always ego over money.

Jokes aside, Oasis would easily pull a bigger crowd than Blur at least. They were much more popular here in the States between the two and considering how anticipated this reunion is worldwide, I would figure more people would buy tickets just to see Oasis (especially if it's their only announced gig) as opposed to Blur just doing another show. As for HOW many people that would be, I'm not sure but I don't think it would a ghost town.
But I'd bet it would be the most streamed set of the weekend, barring Rihannas or Taylors on the lineup.

Ya the first Oasis show would pull. I think people here dramatically over estimate their popularity in the US, but they’d pull at least a GNR level crowd, I’d guess better. Now will that be enough to satisfy Liam’s ego? Certainly not. But he’d still cash the check.

There wil def be a large contingent of uk fans that make the trip if its first. You want to see it before the meltdown. And who Knows how much of a pain buying Wembley tickets would be anyway. They could play there for a month and sell them all out. Probably even 4 nights at Knebworth this time.

It's not impossible, but as has been mentioned Liam and Noel are both hams for attention and wouldn't want to play to anything less than superfans for first show back.
I also don't know how much GV would really bid on it to make it worthwhile. With GNR it felt like there was cultural currency on being the one to make it happen. The Oasis thing was always going to happen and Liam and Noel have been touring the catalog pretty heavily in recent years. It would be a get but doesn't feel like the smartest use of money.

Oasis strikes me as a bigger get than GNR, to be honest; Axl had been touring with the GNR name for years before the full reunion, Oasis has straight up not been a thing for 15 years. Doesn't matter if they'd played some Oasis songs individually. You couldn't buy a ticket for Oasis or just see Oasis songs.
And if "ham for attention" is the biggest thing - I'm not sure they could get more attention announcing a reunion than to have it be on the Coachella poster, and I'm not sure they could get as many people watching their first show as with a Coachella livestream (a UK livestream would definitely not draw the same online audience). But I suppose maybe they'd sacrifice both of those things AND a bigger payday to ensure the best possible crowd.
