I'm not getting tickets but saw ticketmaster had a queue system in place so I joined out of interest for the Friday, there were 39,000 ahead of me in the queue! Cant deny that is impressive demand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurice Mecca Posted October 8, 2021 Report Share Posted October 8, 2021 I can see Emily wanting to have an all female headliner festival in the very near future, with some of the names touted that could well be in 2024. It always feels at the moment that there is a token female headliner to back up two male artists/bands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's a hit then I think she's a very solid "safe" option, if it's the same sort of reception as High as Hope (which I quite liked), I reckon that's her chance to headline outright probably gone. This is the same person who people not long ago were saying if she plays she headlines no doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zacko Posted October 8, 2021 Report Share Posted October 8, 2021 Find the Liam demand fascinating, as it makes me wonder how many nights a fully reformed Oasis could do at Knebworth. What do we reckon? 10 sold out nights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could probably do a whole month of gigs at Wembley or somewhere central (initial reunion has to be at knebworth, obviously) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three or four nights at Heaton Park then stadia and festivals the following year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1986 Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 If Liam headlined solo then Oasis reformed not long after it would make an Oasis headline set pretty redundant surely? Wonder if Glastonbury want to hedge their bets and see what happens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if Glastonbury want to hedge their bets and see what happens? I don’t think Liam will ever headline solo, even if a Oasis reunion never comes/comes at a much later date. He hasn’t reached these heights on his own merit - only that of Oasis and their tunes - so can’t imagine he’s even in consideration at this point tbh, regardless of how popular he currently is.

Matt42 Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 Liam headlining would be a very very lazy booking I’d say. Save that for festivals who sell tickets by stroking peoples nostalgia. Surely though the nostalgia factor is running a bit dry on Liam and Noel? They haven’t exactly been difficult to catch by now if you’re interested.

kalifire Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 I'd be surprised if Liam hasn't at least invited Noel on for a guest appearance at Knebworth. They'll deny it's a reunion but it's a step in that direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it is running dry, if anything it's getting bigger given that Liam is selling out bigger and bigger venues each year. It's funny that Noel has tried to move away from Oasis sounding stuff in recent years, whereas 90% of Liam's solo output wouldn't sound out of place on any post 2000 Oasis album, yet it's Liam who is vastly more successful. There will always be a market for that sort of music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t get me wrong a reunion would still be one of the biggest bookings of this generation but I’m actually surprised how many people are snapping up Liam tickets etc for that Oasis nostalgia. Especially since he’s played anywhere and everywhere each year he’s been active as a solo artist. How long can the novelty of “Liam will play oasis tunes we have to see him!!” go on for? Surely anyone who has at least a mild interest has had a chance to see him. I can’t help but think a lot of people snap up Liam tickets just on the off chance he will bring Noel on stage… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gingerfish79 Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 It isn't nostalgia with Liam, he has a very big, dedicated fan base which continues to grow. I don't personally understand it, but the youth of today seem to love him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in the mid-late 00’s when they were widely considered to be a spent force they were still selling out stadia everywhere. Liam’s popularity is just an extension of that.
