Fans are looking forward to seeing former Oasis drummer Alan White join the legendary British band on their forthcoming 2025 reunion tour.
White has in a social media post hinted at joining the band on their tour. On Sept. 1, White, who played with Oasis from 1995 to 2004, shared a photo on social media featuring his drum kit, adorned with Union Jack-themed artwork reminiscent of the band’s iconic era.
The post has fueled excitement about the highly-anticipated tour, heightening anticipation among music fans.
Announced through their official website and social media platforms on the 27th of August 2024, the ‘Oasis Live 25’ marks the first time Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher are performing together in sixteen years following their brotherly war and separation. The Gallagher brothers will be performing across 17 major cities across the United Kingdom and Ireland. All the shows have been sold out.
Replacing original drummer Tony Mccarroll, Alan White joined the Oasis in 1995. White contributed to four studio albums, including the seminal sophomore effort (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? and Be Here Now, the fastest-selling LP in U.K during his nine years with the iconic band. Playing a significant role in the recording process, often shaping the rhythm and feel of the band’s tracks, White’s drumming became an integral part of Oasis’ sound.
Meanwhile, McCarroll has indicated that he will not be part of the reunion, telling MailOnline: “They haven’t reached out yet and to be honest I’m not holding my breath.”
“Would I consider being involved? I don’t know. At the end of the day I’m not the only ex-member left behind, so I’ll just crack on.” He added, “I haven’t made up my mind if I’m going to watch them play next year either. I was at their last ever gig in the U.K. at the V Festival. It’s weird and ironic that I was there at the first and last gig.”
He added later, “Whether it’s been a blag for 15-years I haven’t got a clue. They’re brothers at the end of the day- maybe their mum Peggy clashed their heads together and said ‘sort it out’.”
