Oasis Tease Much Anticipated Return

Aug 26 2024 Share

Iconic brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher have sparked excitement by hinting at a highly anticipated Oasis reunion, with a major announcement expected on Tuesday morning.

Both Noel, Liam, and the official Oasis account shared a brief video clip featuring the date “27.08.24” and the time “8am,” written in the band’s distinctive logo style, fueling speculation among fans.

Since the band’s dramatic split in 2009 following a heated argument between the brothers, fans have been eagerly hoping for a reconciliation and a return to the stage.

According to British reports, the band has already mapped out potential performances at major venues, including Wembley Stadium and Manchester’s Heaton Park, with a possible headline slot at Glastonbury also on the cards.

Adding to the speculation, Liam dedicated the Oasis track “Half The World Away” to Noel during his headline set at the Reading Festival on Sunday evening, saying, “I wanna dedicate this song to Noel Gallagher.”

These developments have sent millions of fans into a frenzy, as this potential reunion is the moment they’ve been eagerly awaiting for years.

This tradition, which began in 1983, continues to be a highlight of the feast and is met with enthusiastic applause from the crowd, though the rounds are blank, ensuring safety for everyone present, including locals, tourists, and others who cherish the event.

The activity is organized by the Federation for Hunting and Conservation (FKNK), marking its 39th year. Hunters gather to fire about 20 shots, creating a musketry effect.

This tradition of firing rifles during the feast remains exclusive to St. Julian’s. In other Maltese localities, similar salutes are conducted with 21 mortars or musketry from rooftops, but St. Julian’s maintains its distinctive method of celebration.
