Rock legends Liam and Noel Gallagher have fuelled rumours of a long-awaited Oasis reunion after the brothers teased that an announcement could be made on Tuesday morning.

The Mancunian rockers, renowned for their fractious relationship over the decades, have each shared a video on their X accounts showing the date “27.08.24” before it flickers to say “8am”.

The date and time are written in the style of the Oasis logo.

The same video has been shared from the official Oasis account on the X social media platform.

It came after a day of speculation that the two brothers were finally getting the band back together 15 years after it disbanded.

Industry insiders told the Sunday Times the band are booked to play 10 nights at Wembley Stadium, smashing Taylor Swift’s eight-gig record set earlier this month.

The band are also said to be set to play at Manchester’s Heaton Park, while a headline slot at Glastonbury is reported to be in the works.

Liam added to speculation of a reunion on Sunday morning when he posted on X: “I never did like that word FORMER.”

He also offered tongue-in-cheek responses to fans who flooded him with messages on social media asking for confirmation.

When one fan said Heaton Park is a “terrible venue for concerts”, Liam responded: “See you down the front.”

When another asked when the reunion dates will be announced, he replied: “Next Friday.”

It came before his Reading Festival headline set on Sunday evening, where the singer dedicated the Oasis track Half The World Away to Noel.

At the end of the gig, the same clip teasing Tuesday’s date was shown on the stage’s main screens.

A long wait for Oasis lovers

Fans of the Manchester rock band have been hoping for a reunion ever since it split up in 2009, prompted by a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.

Liam damaged one of his elder brother’s guitars and caused Noel to dramatically quit, ending a partnership that had rocketed them to fame and fortune.

Rumours of a reunion have circulated over the years but intensified recently amid the apparent thawing in the feud between the pair.

Meanwhile, the band’s classic debut album Definitely Maybe is set to mark its 30th anniversary this week with a special edition release.

Fans were surprised to hear Noel pay Liam a string of compliments in an interview released last week with music journalist John Robb at Manchester’s Sifters Records in honour of the anniversary.

Reflecting on Liam’s performance on a number of their hits, Noel said: “It’s the delivery or the tone of his voice and the attitude.

“I don’t have the same attitude as him.”

He also jokingly compared Liam’s voice to “10 shots of tequila on a Friday night” and his as “half a Guinness on a Tuesday”.

Formed in 1991, the Britpop group rose to fame with hits like Wonderwall, Don’t Look Back In Anger and Stop Crying Your Heart Out.

They went on to become arguably one of the biggest bands in British music history before their break-up.

The brothers went on to have successful separate careers, with Noel fronting the group Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, while Liam has released four albums as a solo artist.
