Oasis fans have started rowing over tickets after the band announced their long-awaited comeback 15 years after they last played live, with many hitting out at Gen Z fans for the same reason.

The Gallagher brothers have put an end to their feud, with Noel and Liam meeting up for a secret photoshoot to announce their reunion tour that's set to kick off in July 2025.

The Manchester siblings quashed their beef to the joy of millions of fans worldwide, with fans now readying themselves for a mad dash for tickets with 14 UK and Ireland dates announced.

Starting off in Cardiff and ending in Dublin, via hometown gigs in Manchester as well as London and Edinburgh, they are set to be the shows of the summer.

Following the announcement and ahead of tickets being released to the public on Saturday (31 August), fans of the iconic Britpop band have hit out at one subgroup, saying there should be rules in place when it comes to buying tickets.

And it's bad news if you're a newer fan, with the older folk setting their targets on you when it comes to who they think are entitled to tickets.

Yes, sorry Gen Z, but you're once again the target of millennials, Gen X, and Boomers.

It all comes down to when people were born, which no one obviously has any control over, with the older fans of Oasis suggesting they should get priority having waited so long for the reunion to happen.

"Imagine waiting 15 years for Oasis to reform only to lose out on tickets to Chloe, 21 from Stockport, who just wants to hear 'Wonderwall' live," one disgruntled old-timer wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

A second said: "Over 30s need to get an advantage."

And a third wrote: "How many kids, who are not even proper Oasis fans, will get tickets before us older fans who grew up with Oasis, that’s my worry."

And a fourth added: "I wish there was a way to make it proper Oasis fans only next year, not just ones who know 'Wonderwall'."

But others were quick to hit back at the attempt to gatekeep the event from those who are a little younger.

"I don’t what’s worse, the middle aged blokes gatekeeping Oasis from the younger generations or the ones pretending they’re s**t. This working class kid in the 90s can’t wait to listen to them again with his 14-year-old, share the experience, stop being weird," one said.

And a second backed them up, hitting out at 'crying' millennials and Gen X. They said: "Find it hilarious (also unbearable) that millennials and Gen X are crying about Gen Z wanting to buy Oasis tickets.

"I was born in 1999 and listened to Oasis for my whole childhood. Just because people weren’t adults when they were around doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy them."

And a third posted that it is a great thing that there will be people of all generations there, having discovered the music of Oasis - and then solo material of Liam and Noel - in their own way.

He said: "One mad thing about the Oasis reunion is there'll legit be folk who were 40 and loved them in 1994 and who are 70 now, and s**tloads of 14-year-olds who were born after L&G split up. Yet both sets of folk will be buzzing over it."
