Liam and Noel Gallagher pictured together for first time since tour announced
The Britpop band, who split in 2009 prompted by a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival, confirmed their long-awaited reunion in August 2024. They have since been photographed together to launch a new partnership with Adidas ahead of their Oasis Live '25 world tour. A post shared by adidas UK (@adidasuk) The Manchester-born musicians rose to fame after the release of their debut album Definitely Maybe in 1994, with their hits songs including Champagne Supernova, Wonderwall and Supersonic. While in the group, they became known for their recognisable sportswear style which consisted of tracksuits, sleeve jerseys, bucket hats and coach jackets. The pair are now the faces behind the Original Forever film campaign, which is soundtracked by their hit song Live Forever, and includes an accompanying Adidas Originals x Oasis Live '25 apparel collection. Chris Walsh, Adidas brand vice president, said: 'Adidas and Oasis share a story defined by originality and cultural impact, with roots that run deep and have long been entwined in the fabric of music and style. 'This official partnership represents more than just two icons coming together – it reignites a timeless piece of cultural music history. A post shared by adidas UK (@adidasuk) 'Original Forever continues to build on Adidas' lasting legacy in music and celebrates the powerful role music and style play in shaping culture across generations.' The brothers had been known to get into arguments over the years, but things reached breaking point at a French festival when Liam began swinging around a guitar. Noel quit the rock group on August 28 2009, saying he 'simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer'. The highly anticipated reunion tour announcement was followed with some ticketing backlash after fans in the UK and Ireland saw some prices more than double, from £148 to £355, which was blamed on 'unprecedented demand'. The outrage and controversy prompted the Government and the UK's competition watchdog to pledge they would look at the use of dynamic pricing. Oasis are due to kickstart their world tour in July with performances in Cardiff followed by Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin. The group will continue on with concerts scheduled around the world including Canada, the US, Mexico, Australia and Japan.

Liam and Noel Gallagher pictured together for first time since Oasis reunion new
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Noel and Liam Gallagher have posed for their second public snap together in 15 years, since Oasis' sudden 2009 split and almighty fall out. In August the bickering brothers announced a huge reunion tour, posing for a black and white picture together to celebrate the momentous occasion. The brothers have now publicly joined forces for the second time to promote their Adidas partnership, marking the first time Liam, 52, and Noel, 58, have been photographed together since the Oasis comeback news. The new image, posted on Adidas' social media on Thursday, showed the pair dressed in the fresh designs branded with 'Oasis', and was captioned: 'The band with three stripes.' Fittingly, the advert for the collaboration features historic clips from Knebworth to Heaton Park, and Wembley to Rio, emotionally soundtracked by Oasis' 1994 hit Live Forever. The clip comes to a crescendo of Liam and Noel posing moodily side-by-side – not hugging just yet – as they stare into the camera wearing their Adidas gear, seemingly gearing up for the stage. Oasis and Adidas are also teaming up for an Oasis Live '25 apparel collection, which sees their classic 90s looks modernised. Just a month short of 16 years since Noel announced he could no longer work with his brother Liam, the Britpop legends will be taking to the stage once more on July 5. They are performing in Cardiff, before heading to their native Manchester for a five-night run, and London's Wembley Stadium at the end of the month. Edinburgh and Dublin dates are set for August, before Noel and Liam head over to kick off the North America leg of their tour. Fear not though: the brothers will (hopefully) be back, getting on like a champagne supernova in the sky (fingers crossed), to perform two more Wembley shows in September. The Adidas campaign comes after Edinburgh City Council expressed concern about Oasis' gigs in Murrayfield Stadium. The dates come in the middle of the famed Edinburgh Fringe Festival, which takes over the city for the month of August. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video In the official papers, the council called Oasis fans mainly 'middle-aged men' who 'take up more room', as reported by The Sun. They also expressed concerns about the amount they might drink, explaining they expect 'medium to high intoxication' and a 'substantial amount of older fans' amongst the 210,000 punters on August 8, 9 and 12. Not one to ever hold back, Liam shared his thoughts… More Trending 'To the Edinburgh council I've heard what you said about OASIS fans and quite frankly your attitude f***ing stinks I'd leave town that day if I was any of you lot,' he said, adding: 'I'd love to see a picture of all the people on the Edinburgh council bet there's some real STUNING individuals.' In an update about the Oasis Live shows, a source who was at one of the band's rehearsals told The Sun: 'Oasis have never sounded better. They were playing Cigarettes & Alcohol and Liam's vocals sounded really good. '[Liam's impressive vocals] were probably down to the two packets of Lockets cough sweets that he was sucking throughout the rehearsal.' The source added: 'You could hear Noel's lead guitar really well and he sounded so good too. To hear them playing live, and playing so loudly, was an incredible moment.' Got a story?
