Robbie Williams mocks Oasis over surge pricing claims

In recent weeks, Robbie Williams, during the launch of his new biopic, Better Man, made remarks that ridiculed the band Oasis concerning their previous comments about dynamic ticket pricing. Williams, 50, mimicked a Mancunian accent while questioning the band’s claims of having no influence over surge pricing. These comments stirred a response from Noel Gallagher, who, at a celebration for his photograph being hung in the National Portrait Gallery, took the opportunity to address Williams' remarks directly. Noel, 57, mentioned he was largely unfazed by the criticisms and displayed a sense of humor about the situation. During the same event, Noel reflected on the circumstances surrounding his photograph at the gallery, describing it as an unexpected honor given that he initially disliked the photoshoot that led to its selection. Noel also recounted the experience of being in poor spirits while having the photoshoot, highlighting that he had not eaten that day, which contributed to his discomfort. However, the acknowledgment from the National Portrait Gallery provided a bright spot, leading to his change of heart about the images. Additionally, Gallagher shared that he and his brother Liam Gallagher had resolved their long-standing feud and were looking forward to the upcoming Oasis tour planned for 2025. This marks a significant development as it suggests a new chapter in their relationship, indicating no more public fights going forward. He humorously noted how their mother was indifferent to their past arguments, possibly suggesting that family dynamics often shift perceptions of conflicts within the family. Despite their feuds and the public nature of their disputes, Noel expressed optimism about their future collaboration. As for the tour preparations, Noel stated that work had not yet begun and will commence in May. He emphasized that both brothers are currently focused on their individual solo projects, which underlines the complexities of their dual career identities as both solo artists and members of Oasis. This focus on solo careers may explain the delayed preparations for the tour, as both are managing their personal artistic endeavors before confirming their commitment to the band again.
