The Oasis frontman hinted that he doesn't want to retire the band once they complete their reunion dates and will be on his best behaviour.
Liam Gallagher is hoping to continue with Oasis after their reunion tour.
The Manchester rocker and his estranged brother Noel buried the hatchet and have so far announced dates in the UK & Ireland, North America and Australia.
Asked by a fan if he feels like "retirement is inevitable" after Oasis Live '25, he said: "I’m up for carrying on but it’s not just down to me".

Asked if specifically if he will continue with his solo career after the epic dates, Liam responded: "Nope I’m gonna be on my best behavior on this tour and hopefully Noel will see my potential and he’ll write some RnR and I’ll sing them and that’ll be that if not I’m of on holiday for 30 years" (sic).

Much has been made about the brothers' tumultuous relationship, with many joking that they may not make it to the stage without a big fall out.
One band offering advice to Liam and Noel ahead of their dates are fellow 90s rockers Pixies, who've had their fair share of drama over the years.
"Just no physical violence," lead guitarist Joey Santiago told NME. "Insults are fine. Get sleep. If you’re going to get s***tfaced, do it after the show."
Asked if the Britpop rockers should record new music, he warned: "No no no, that is the most stressful part. I don’t think they’re ready for that yet," before joking: "I think that the biggest tip I could give Oasis is when they’re playing the Rose Bowl [Stadium in Pasadena, California], they should ask this band called the Pixies to open up for them."
Meanwhile, the Supersonic icons have confirmed Richard Ashcroft as the special guest for their UK & Ireland dates, but Liam Gallagher has responded to stick about choosing The Verve frontman.
Taking to X, the Wonderwall singer wrote: "To all the folk who are crying about us not showing love to the young bands and not letting them support there’s LEVELS to this game and I’m afraid 99 p cent of ya are way off LF***ING x".

When a fan criticised the duo for not championing newer acts, Liam hit back: "Richard’s got more talent in his left nostril than all your so called new bands put together now stop being an entitled little bumbaseed and show some f***ing respect".
