Liam Gallagher has urged his older brother Noel to reunite Oasis once the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is over.

Taking to Twitter last night (19th March), Liam called for a one-off charity Oasis reunion once the coronavirus has been quelled.

“Once this is put to bed we need to get oasis back for a 1 off gig rite for charity,” Liam wrote.

Directly addressing Noel Gallagher, Liam continued: “C’mon Noel we can then go back to our amazing solo careers c’mon you know LG x.”

In another expletive-strewn follow-up tweet, Liam then joked that they could get The Cheeky Girls on the line-up alongside music legends The Smiths, The Jam and Paul Weller.

Liam Gallagher calls for Oasis reunion

Earlier this month, it emerged that Noel Gallagher had said that mobile phones would taint a potential Oasis reunion.

Esteemed photographer Kevin Cummins, who shot Oasis in their early days, said: “I went to the football with Noel the other day and we were talking about that and how if Oasis reformed they would only have to do one gig because it would be telecast round the world, it could be streamed live everywhere and they could do another Knebworth but they could play to billions of people on the same evening.

“They probably would work again afterwards but they wouldn't need to do it again after that, it could just be one show.

“Noel was saying, ‘Well, it wouldn’t be the same, because there would be 200,000 people watching it through their phones’. He said, ‘We were the last band really where you could go to a gig and nobody was taking pictures, and that’s what made it exciting’”.

On Tuesday 3rd March, Noel Gallagher took to Twitter to shut down the idea of an Oasis reunion once again.

Noel tweeted: “So..just while I'm in between having my nails done and taking my regular elocution lessons I'd like to point out AGAIN that I'm not aware of any offer for any amount of money to reform the legendary rock'n'folk outfit Oasis.”

Noel was apparently responding to recent comments Liam made about the reunion to NME: "It’s gonna happen, believe you me - it's gonna happen very f***ing soon because he's greedy and he loves money and he knows that it's got to happen soon or it won't happen."

At the start of February Liam claimed his “greedy soul” older brother Noel Gallagher had turned down a lucrative £100 million for an Oasis reunion.

A day later, Noel took to Twitter to shut down his Liam’s comments, writing: “To whoever might be arsed. I am not aware of any offer from anybody for any amount of money to reform the legendary Mancunian Rock’n’Roll group Oasis.

“I am fully aware though that someone has a single to promote so that’s maybe where the confusion lies.”
