00:00So, it is definitely not a maybe, Oasis are reuniting for a UK and Ireland tour that could
00:05be one of the most lucrative ever, with tickets being hyped as the hottest of the decade.
00:10But one question people are asking is why, the most obvious motivation is money.
00:16Despite both Gallagher brothers establishing successful solo careers since their split
00:20in 2009, nothing they have done comes close to the kinds of figures potentially on offer
00:26from the 14-date reunion shows that include a four-show run at Wembley Stadium, Birmingham
00:31City University estimate that the initial 14 dates could bring in £400 million in ticket
00:36sales and other add-ons, with Liam and Noel both in line to each earn £50 million.
00:42D.R.
00:43Matt Grimes, course director of the music business BA at Birmingham City University,
00:48said the brothers could double their net worth in a few weeks.
00:51They're considering going into Europe as well, so they stand to make even more, he
00:55said.
00:56While ticket prices haven't been revealed yet ahead of them going on sale this Friday,
01:00it's likely they will have increased tenfold from 1995, when tickets cost £14 on their
01:07UK tour.
01:08Despite breaking up 15 years ago, Oasis as an entity hasn't ever really gone away.
01:13The Gallagher brothers' private lives have kept them in the tabloid press, while anniversary
01:18releases ensured their music continued to have a second life on streaming services.
01:23The 2016 documentary Supersonic reignited interest in the group from older fans who
01:28lived through the original Oasis era and younger audiences who were introduced to the Gallagher's
01:33Mancunian insouciance, humour and self-mythologising.
01:37Iman Ford, the business writer and author, says Oasis have occupied a unique place within
01:42British culture.
01:43They were ever-present in the culture, says Ford.
01:45You can almost compare them to ABBA or The Beatles, there's always something happening
01:49to remind and draw in new listeners.
01:52They've never monetised that nostalgia on this scale, he added.
01:55They'll probably make more money from these gigs than they did in the entire 90 seconds.
02:00Oasis are following in the footsteps of several of their Britpop peers by reuniting, but it
02:05doesn't always work out.
02:07Vulpev had several get-togethers over the years, while Blur reformed in 2009 and 2015
02:13before their summer shows in 2023.
02:16Blur's comeback shows at Wembley last year were a success, selling out in minutes and
02:20impressing critics.
02:21But the reunion was fraught as tensions within the band rosem shone behind-the-scenes documentary
02:26to the end.
02:27A cautionary tale comes in the form of The Stone Roses, another Mancunian band that paved
02:32the way for Oasis' brand of lad-friendly indie.
02:36When they came back together in 2013, lifelong fan and filmmaker Shane Meadows was on hand
02:41to capture the reunion, which soured shortly after it began and resulted with members walking
02:47out mid-tour.
