Oasis sparks fan outrage with new reunion tour dates announced

Oasis, the iconic Britpop band, has stirred excitement and controversy with the announcement of two new tour dates in Australia for their reunion tour scheduled for next year. This follows a summer revelation that the Gallagher brothers would be reuniting for a series of concerts in 2025, which generated significant demand among fans. However, many were left disappointed when they were unable to secure tickets due to overwhelming demand and high prices. Fans in the UK faced ticket prices that soared above £350, despite the initial face value being set at £150. This led to widespread backlash, with some fans humorously suggesting it might be cheaper to fly to Australia than to buy a ticket for a UK show. The situation has been exacerbated by the lack of announced tour dates in other countries, such as Brazil and Singapore, prompting further frustration among international fans. In response to the backlash, Oasis has decided to eliminate dynamic pricing for their American tour dates, a system that had previously caused dissatisfaction among fans. The band's management acknowledged that while dynamic pricing can help combat ticket touting, it can also lead to negative experiences when demand exceeds the system's capabilities. As the band prepares for their international tour, they aim to ensure a smoother ticket purchasing experience for fans, hoping to avoid the issues that plagued their UK ticket sales. The announcement of additional international cities is expected soon, which may help alleviate some of the discontent among fans worldwide.
