I cite my sources and they may differ than other people's accounts, so I don't guarantee the actual accuracy of my videos.
While Oasis dominated the mid to late 90’s and were active during the 2000’s the relationship between the Gallagher brothers Liam and Noel was always frought with tension. The band called it quits in 2009 and I’ve done a whole video on the breakup the link is down below. The brothers would go off and do their own musical projects while taking shots at each other in the press. But the animosity between the pair and their consistent denials of a reunion ever taking place hasn’t stopped fans for hoping for them to share the stage again. Dave Grohl is admittedly a huge Oasis fan, so much so, that the band covered their song lyla in 2005 during an appearance on BBC’s Radio 1 and during a special warm up gig in London the same year. In 2014 Grohl would be interviewed on Radio X and had this to say about Oasis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWyM4RmVRl4
Drummer Taylor Hawkins echoed a similar sentiment to the New Musical Express revealing in 2016 “I’ll tell you something about Liam Gallagher,” When people talk about Freddie Mercury, they’re like ‘Oh my god, he’s so outrageous’ – a lot of people just skip past the actual thing of what it is that made them great. I watched that Oasis documentary [Supersonic] the other day, and there’s this part were he just sings ‘Champagne Supernova’ in one take in its entirety, and you just go ‘oh fuck’, you know, the reason we all liked him in the first place is because he’s a fucking good singer. He can fucking sing a rock ‘n’ roll song dude.”
“I hope him and his brother can get their shit together. I mean come on boys, everyone wants to see Oasis again, give us a break – come on!”
Foo Fighters would be joined by Liam Gallagher onstage in 2017 in San Bernardino, California alongside Joe Perry of Aerosmith at the CalJam Festival to perform the Beatles track Come Together. In 2017 Noel Gallagher would take the first shot at Foo Fighters as he told Virgin Radio UK here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUayAqjzxVo
In 2018 Liam Gallagher would reveal to the new musical express that Foo Fighters wanted to collaborate with him saying “They keep texting me, man,” “They wanted to do one tune, but I dunno – I’ll do it one day, but I’m too busy doing this at the moment. But I do like them – I think Foo Fighters have got good tunes. I think Dave Grohl’s very talented, and so is the band.”
In the summer of 2019 Foo Fighters would headline the Reading Festival in England and it was during their set frontman Dave Grohl told the crowd that they should start a petition to get Oasis back together. Drummer Taylor Hawkins would tape a photo of the Gallagher brothers to his kick drum. When Hawkins took over singing duties for their cover of QUeen’s Under Pressure he brought up the Oasis reunion again and said the brothers had too much money to reunite. The statements related to Oasis reunion was met with thunderous applause from the crowd.
A few weeks later Noel Gallagher who was on tour in America with his band the High Flying Birds was playing a gig in California and reportedly told the crowd
In 2019, while taking a break from Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins was out promoting his band Taylor Hawkins & The Coattail Riders, he would stop by Radio X in the UK. It was during the interview Hawkins was asked about Oasis and the feud between the Gallagher brothers and which side he takes. He would reveal he was on frontman Liam’s side, largely due to Noel Gallagher’s attitude towards his band Foo Fighters and was not happy about the guitarist and singer’s songwriters comments about Grohl saying
So Noel Gallagher, who was opening up for Smashing Pumpkins in America, and first night he goes, ‘Let’s start a petition to get the Foo Fighters to break up.’ And I’m like, OK that’s kinda funny, whatever…”
“And then next night he goes, ‘If the drummer from Nirvana…’ – Now Noel, if you’re hearing this. He didn’t say it I said it. […] He didn’t even say Dave, you know as if to lower him – ‘… wants Oasis to get back together he can come up on this stage right now and suck my you know what…'”
“But I’m hoping now that he will lighten up a little bit and come to his senses and get the good singer back for his band. That’s what I’m hoping. I just think
