"Sure, that will be nice." Noel Gallagher reveals his mum Peggy's fabulously understated reaction to the news that Oasis have reformed

Noel Gallagher.

The fact that Oasis are getting back together for a massive tour in 2025 may have caused great excitement across the world, but in one Manchester household, the news was greeted with sublime indifference, Noel Gallagher has revealed.

“My mum couldn’t give a shit,” Gallagher admitted, talking to The Sun newspaper at the National Portrait Gallery in London on November 28. “My mum never gave a shit, never. You know what Irish mums are like. When we told her we were getting back together, she said, ‘Sure, that will be nice’. That was it.”

Gallagher describes Oasis' upcoming 41-date stadium tour as “a lap of honour” for the reunited band, and despite his mother Peggy's almost complete indifference to the eagerly-awaited-by-others trek, he's hopeful that he can persuade his mum to return to Ireland for Oasis' gigs at Dublin's Croke Park in mid-August.
