Its a rehearsal.

I agree with this. Nothing to judge. I find it interesting theres no Noel backing vocals. Both those songs feature him prominently...

Hopefully, that's a sign of Noel focusing more on his playing! He's probably a little rusty, considering his been more of a 'strummer' in recent years. I'd love a return of the, Noel-led, 1994-'98 guitar-heroics.

I do believe these are the rehearsals for the Def Maybe tour last year, as the source is The Sun it's probably so

Well, here's there will be more leaks; this time featuring Noel bellowing out something like Little By Little. Then, we'll know for certain!

Starkey was asked first to play the drums for the Oasis tour...Daltrey really screwed this guy

Doesn't this claim contradict what he said earlier when he said he had to message Liam or Noel and ask why he hadn't been offered to join for the tour?

He remains perplexed and saddened by it, not least because he says he turned down the megawatt Oasis tour because he was in The Who. Which he now isn’t.

So were he not in The Who, he would have played with Oasis? “Of course. Of course.”

Use reader mode

So, Zak’s loyalty to the Who has got him nowhere, ultimately.

He should’ve just joined Oasis; a far bigger band.

…and more fun from the sounds of it. Who is this Waronker guy they chose. What is his previous relation to Oasis?

Studio drummer from Cali, he has played with lotsa different acts but he ain't nowhere near as good as Zak.

Thats why I'm asking as a long time Oasis admirer. How did HE get the gig? Who knew him? Did Michael Stipe recommend him? Zak is free and we have three weeks...

Waronker played on Liam’s 2024 album and tour with John Squire, you can see him drumming in that context here: [youtu.be]. He’s a great drummer, whether he’s a good fit for Oasis remains to be seen but I’m optimistic.

Ok I appreciate that. Thank you.

It is strange that Zak is all of a sudden saying he specifically turned down the Oasis tour because he was in The Who when he did explicitly say before that he asked Noel "why aren't I your drummer for this tour?" I'm on Zak's side with this, but something isn't right there with him now saying he turned it down, unless the below was a lie to I guess kinda protect the Who? I really can't tell:

Conversation then turned to what Zak made of the upcoming [Oasis] reunion tour, to which Zak immediately responded to say he was ‘gutted’ about not being asked to take part in the shows.

He said: “I texted them and said ‘why am I not in it?’. You know, if you get a new drummer, you get comfortable, don’t you? You get comfortable with new musicians and I think that’s what’s happened and I’m alright with that.”

He went on to say he would have joined them on tour had the offer come in. He told the BBC programme: “God, yeah. Greatest rock and roll band of my generation. Greatest rock and roll singer of my generation.”

Yeah this seems contradictory

Edinburgh Council seem to think we a ‘fat, drunk and rowdy’, apparently!

Well, we are talking about Scottish blokes, here

Liam is great at this. Can't wait to hear what he says on stage in Edinburgh...
