Noel Gallagher claims that the Oasis reunion tour won't be as "raucous" as the ones that took place at the height of Britpop because he and brother Liam are simply "too old".

The musician and songwriter has also called the "Live '25" tour - which starts in Cardiff in July and ends in São Paulo, Brazil next November and will include a colossal seven nights at London's Wembley Stadium - a "lap of honour" for the legendary Manchester band.

Speaking to The Sun at the National Portrait Gallery last week, where he was attending the Zoe Law Legend exhibition launch, Noel said:

"It won’t be as raucous as back in the day, because we’re on the wrong side of 50 now, so we’re too old."

He went on: "We’re too old to give a s**t now, so there won’t be any fallouts, there won’t be any fighting. It’s a lap of honour for the band.”

Asked by the reporter if he was please that he and his brother had reconciled after 15 years of animosity, Noel simply replied: “Of course, yes."

Though the Oasis guitarist and chief songwriter has described the dates as a "lap of honour," his brother Liam may have other ideas and wants to be on his best behaviour for the shows to make sure they aren't the last.

Asked by a fan on X if he feels like "retirement is inevitable" after Oasis Live '25, the frontman replied: "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).
