Liam Gallagher will ditch the booze as he makes major lifestyle changes to prepare for Oasis reunion gigs

Liam Gallagher will ditch the booze as he makes major lifestyle changes to prepare for Oasis reunion gigs

Liam Gallagher will be sober throughout the summer months to make sure the Oasis reunion gigs all go off without any issues. 

Fans were sent into a frenzy last summer when Noel, 57, and Liam, 52, announced they had put their differences aside and would return in 2025.

And Liam seems to be taking the comeback very seriously as he has already started getting fit and cutting out alcohol ready to take to the stage for the shows. 

The singer is planning not to booze during the shows after previously admitting he stopped drinking on stage after his erratic performance with Oasis at Wembley in 2000.

A source told The Sun: ‘Liam’s just returned from a boozy holiday and now plans to be in lock-down for the foreseeable to focus on getting fit for the tour.

‘He is planning on being sober ahead of and on tour with Oasis. He’s actually used cutting out booze to help him prepare and also to get through the shows before.’

Despite the no boozing, Liam will have one exception, the source added: ‘Safe to say he will still have a few beers watching the football.’

It comes as the set list for Oasis’s long-awaited 2025 reunion tour was leaked on social media earlier this month and Liam has now confirmed its authenticity.

The shows will be the first time they will perform on stage together since breaking up in 2009 following a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in France.

The much-hyped events have been shrouded in mystery since it was confirmed in August 2024.

But the secret now seems to be out after a fan claimed to have leaked the song selection for the tour – but there was no room for one of their biggest singles.

The rumoured set starts off with Acquiesce, the only Oasis hit to feature the brothers singing in tandem and a popular opener for past shows.

The following song is the band’s first UK number one hit Some Might Say, which appears on the their second album What’s The Story (Morning Glory)? released in 1995.

The Gallaghers then go through some of their most beloved tracks including Lyla, Shakermaker, The Hindu Times, Columbia and Cast No Shadow.

Popular 1995 hit She’s Electric comes in as the eighth performance on the rumoured list and is followed in the middle of the set by songs from a variety of eras including Stand By Me, Stop Crying Your Heart Out, The Importance of Being Idle, Half The World Away, Whatever and Slide Away.

The band are set to leave their fan favourite hits until the end of their shows, with their 1994 debut single Supersonic the 15th song.

The Liam-led anthem is followed by Morning Glory, Rock ‘n’ Roll Star and Cigarettes and Alcohol.

Third from last is 1995 single Don’t Look Back In Anger, which boasts a whopping 995million listens on Spotify and is known by music fans across the world.

Cult classic Live Forever, from their 1994 debut album Definitely Maybe, is the penultimate track on the rumoured list before the Gallagher brothers finish off the set with seven-and-a-half-minute anthem Champagne Supernova.

There is noticeably no room for Wonderwall, which has more than 2.2bn plays on Spotify and is the group’s sole top 40 entry on the US Billboard H๏τ 100, although you would imagine the 1995 hit is a shoo-in for an encore.

Lead singer Liam, who boasts 3.8m followers on X, responded to the speculated song list, saying: ‘It’s not far off.’

The announcement sparked a scramble for tickets to see the concerts in Manchester, Cardiff, London, Edinburgh and Dublin.

They will also play in the US, Canada, Mexico, and Australia.

A source told The Sun that contracts state they won’t be paid until the tour starts out of fears they could fall out beforehand.

Although the clause is a common arrangement it seemed ‘even more necessary’ because ‘of Noel and Liam’s fiery relationship’. 

The Gallaghers will reportedly be kept apart when not on stage in a ‘military style operation’ during their much-anticipated reunion tour.

There will be separate dressing rooms and transport to avoid a clash and resulting ‘PR and financial nightmare’.
