Fan thinks band will sell 'negative tickets' after spotting huge clash with Oasis Wembley date

Imagine a band announcing potentially one of the most shocking reunions of this generation and them doing a concert in the same city on the same night as your band.

Yeah, nightmare. And the exact nightmare one particular band are facing now Oasis have announced a reunion tour.

It’s fair to say fans were pretty shook this morning (27 August) when Liam and Noel Gallagher confirmed they will officially be sharing the stage once again after nearly 15 years since the band split.

But while it’s predicted Oasis will make absolute millions from next year’s shows, some people reckon recent Reading and Leeds headliners Catfish and the Bottlemen will sell ‘negative tickets’ after spotting the huge clash.

There was already backlash when the ‘Cocoon’ group announced their stadium tour dates earlier this month and now, it’s amped up to the max.

The Welsh indie-rock band are set to play Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on 3 August next summer, the same night Oasis will play one of four dates at Wembley Stadium, both of course in London.

Online, users had criticised Catfish that there was ‘no chance’ they would sell out Cardiff’s Principality Stadium and the spot in the capital, cruelly adding it would ‘be embarrassingly undersold’. Although, plenty of fans expressed how buzzing they are that the band are back.

General sale for the stadium shows started last Friday and there are still tickets available on Ticketmaster. And now, some are joking it’s less likely to sell out with many opting to try and see Oasis instead.

One wrote on X: “Catfish at Tottenham on the same date as Oasis Wembley. Might be the first gig ever to sell a negative amount of tickets.”

Agreeing with the tongue-in-cheek remark, another added: "A record breaking negative ticket sale for catfish incoming."

As some others joked: “No way Catfish are playing London the same day as Oasis are on as if the stadium wasn’t gonna be empty already it definitely will be now.”

Another joked: “Oasis why r u doing a London show on the same day as Catfish London. Do you want Van McCann to cry be honest,” with one slamming: “Whoever booked catfish on the same date as oasis IN A STADIUM should be immediately fired. esp since bookers would know that oasis has blocked out the same dates at Wembley.”

Many also agreed: “Something beautiful and undeniably Spursy about Catfish And the Bottlemen announcing their biggest ever gig at our stadium just before Oasis reunite to play Wembley on the same day.”

A lot of others, however, were just buzzing for both bands to be back playing live shows as one put: “Oasis and Catfish and the Bottlemen are back maybe life is worth living.”

Another said: "Oasis reunion, Catfish and the Bottlemen playing stadiums and Fontaines d.c. new album. britpop is backkkkkk."

Plenty echoed: “Catfish and the Bottlemen & Oasis are back life is great.”

And one came up with the resolution: “If I can't get Oasis ticket I'm seeing Catfish instead.”

Fans who saw the band over the weekend also called it 'so amazing' and said it's 'one of their fave concerts of all time'.

While one even said: "Still can’t get over how amazing Catfish and the Bottlemen were live, feel life is only going down hill here that was the best moment of my life."

Well, despite what trolls are saying, it looks like fans have the pick of some boss live music next summer.
