Monday, August 25th, Toronto, ON, Canada – Last night, after over 16 years, Oasis returned to North America to kick off the next leg of their global Oasis Live ‘25 tour at Toronto’s Rogers Stadium in front of a sold-out crowd of 55,000.
The monumental tour has continued to unite people around the world and across generations. Rolling Stone praised the “joyous celebration of reconciliation and generation-defining anthems,” while The Fader declared, “There will be no other rock band who will be able to be so unifying and momentous in their return.” Paste Magazine was captivated by the joyous phenomenon happening on this tour, "Hugging, dancing, crying with strangers—when’s the last time any of us did any of that? But as we all got hype together over the opening licks of ‘Hello,’ the folks around me suddenly felt like lifelong friends. We need more of this in the world, not less.”
Shortly after taking the stage last night at 8:45pm, Liam shared a story from earlier that morning.
“I bumped into a geezer today about half seven in the morning called Hugo. He comes up to me and says, ‘Mr. Gallagher,’ and I said, ‘No need for that. It’s Liam.’”
“He says, ‘Good luck tonight trying to get these Canadians doing the Poznan.’”
“He says, ‘Cause they’re all a little bit shy. They’re a little bit scared and stuff. They all smoke pot now. They’re all fucking out of their heads.’”
“He says, ‘Good luck with doing that shit tonight.’”
“So what, are we going to prove them wrong then or what? You don’t want to be the first one letting this side down.”
Liam continued before launching into “Cigarettes & Alcohol” instructing the crowd, “You lot turn around. Put your arms around each other. Give each other a cuddle, and just jump up and down. It’s very easy.” And by the end of the song, Toronto proved victorious and delivered a proper Poznan. Liam concluded, “We showed Hugo. We showed ‘em.”
Another few songs in, the skies unleashed the rain and the wind during “Stand By Me,” and before “Whatever,” a drenched Liam pondered to the still 55,000 strong crowd, “Don’t you just love it, a little bit of chaos when the weather comes? So fucking good, innit? Twist your melons just a little bit, innit? All that sunshine, it’s not good for ya. Wind and sleet. Good for the soul.”
The band will return tonight for another sold-out show at Toronto’s Rogers Stadium before heading to Chicago for a sold-out show at Soldier Field on August 28th. From there, the band will play back-to-back sold-out shows in East Rutherford, Los Angeles, and Mexico City to wrap the North American leg.
Ahead of the Toronto show, Oasis released “Bring It On Down (Live from Edinburgh, 9 August ‘25).” The track was recorded live on Saturday, August 9th, at the second of three sold-out nights at Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium where they performed to over 204,000 fans. “Bring It On Down (Live from Edinburgh, 9 August ‘25)” follows “Slide Away (Live from Cardiff, 4 July ‘25),” “Cigarettes & Alcohol (Live from Manchester, 11 July ‘25),” and “Little By Little (Live from London, 2 August ‘25).”
Also released in the lead up to North America was the limited-edition Oasis “Complete Studio Album Collection” box set – including all seven studio albums plus iconic B-sides album The Masterplan on vinyl and CD formats. Available HERE.
(What’s The Story) Morning Glory? Deluxe 30th Anniversary Edition will be released on October 3rd with limited-edition formats featuring new unplugged versions of classic tracks. Pre-order HERE.
