The recent Oasis announcement—the reunion of the famous, feuding Gallagher brothers to play seventeen shows together in the UK and Ireland in 2025—has sent music fans around the world into a frenzy. It will be their first show in 16 years since splitting in 2009.
Since Maru and I met in 2010, she’s been ever consistent about her favourite band: Oasis. I couldn’t believe it when she showed me the official live concert video of Oasis at River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires where during Wonderwall the camera zooms in on Maru waving her arms and singing along.
Coincidentally, we were at a local Italian restaurant in Kentish Town about three months ago when Noel Gallagher sat down at the table next to us. Maru told Noel how much she appreciated his music, and after her being called “one of the most polite fans he’s ever met’, he insisted they take a photo. She was over the moon.
All this to say, we’ll be hoping for some good luck this Saturday at 9am when tickets come on sale.
