Oasis star reveals Noel Gallagher's huge clue about future of band
Noel Gallagher has dropped a huge clue about the future of Oasis. The legendary Britpop band fronted by Noel and his younger brother, Liam Gallagher, sent the world into a frenzy when they finally returned to the stage in July, 16 years after the once-warring brothers fell out.
Performing across the globe in cities such as Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh, New York, Los Angeles and ending their tour in São Paulo, Brazil, last month, millions of fans were treated to the concert they never thought they would see.
However, as the euphoric tour drew to a close, speculation had arisen that the band might continue and possibly secure dates at either their beloved Manchester City stadium, the Etihad, or Knebworth. Now, guitarist Gem Archerhas given a fresh insight into the future of Oasis and Noel's very cryptic comment.

Gem admits that the past few months have been a "blur" for the group, but they will take some time next year to sit and properly go over the buzz they experienced. "Anything could happen, which could include nothing," he said of the future of the band. Speaking to NME, Gem continued: "But this was quite a thing… if stuff was happening, I think I might already know about it, if you know what I mean? It's not something you just flick on."
But, he went on to reveal that Noel gave a cryptic insight, explaining: "Noel has said, 'No rest for the immensely talented,' so take that how you want." Meanwhile, Liam recently stated that there would be no new dates for Oasis next year.
However, he did imply that there could be news for 2027 after the band takes a well-deserved break. When denying that they will play Knebworth, Liam said: "I don't [have] snizzle to do until 2027 I mean happy Christmas."
He had previously hinted that the band had been planning on adding extra dates in the future. When a fan asked whether he was "sad that the tour is ending soon," the Mancunian icon replied: "I'm not actually as I know things you don't."
Before teasing news on social media, Liam also hinted that the band had a future while performing at London's Wembley Stadium in September. He told fans: "See you next year," before he jokingly slapped himself on the wrist for revealing the news.
Just last month, the band informed fans that following the success of the tour, there would be a "pause for a period of reflection". In a statement shared online, the group said: "And so it came to pass. The most damaging pop cultural force in recent British history found its way into the hearts and minds of a new generation. From Gallagher Hill to the River Plate, from Croke Park on the banks of the Royal Canal to the City Of Angels, the love, joy, tears and euphoria will never be forgotten.
"There will now be a pause for a period of reflection." However, sources close to the band have said that the Oasis Live '25 tour would be the only chance to see the band perform.
It's estimated that the tour generated around £1 billion for the UK economy alone, and was projected to earn the group around £400 million from ticket sales and merchandise alone, according to Dr Charles Nimoh, macroeconomic expert at the University of Salford.
