OASIS fans have been left fuming after Liam Gallagher ‘revealed’ the band's surprisingly short set at their big-money reunion tour this summer. The highly anticipated comeback, which will see the Britpop icons reunite for the first time in 16 years, has been met with huge demand, with tickets selling out within minutes.

With such hype surrounding the shows - and sky-high ticket prices - fans had been expecting an extensive setlist packed with their biggest hits. But when Liam dropped his bombshell, it quickly dampened excitement for the gigs. In response to a tweet asking how long the set would be, Liam casually replied: "59 minutes 59 secs.".

Fans soon took to Reddit to voice their concerns. One wrote: "I hope this isn’t real I will by flying from Florida to Chicago! Knowing Liam it probably isn’t.". Another added: "No way they do anything under 2 hours after the prices they charged and the media hype. 30-40 minute Noel set to get them to 2 hours I bet.".

Someone else suggested: "I would say he’s on a wind up but I went to a show where he played less than an hour. Maybe Noel can pick up hour 2.". A fourth claimed: "I saw Liam in Washington DC in 2018. He performed for 54 minutes with no opening act. Needless to say, I was a little disappointed.".

Earlier this month, Liam spoke out after some Oasis fans were left angry over ticket cancellations. In a well-meaning attempt to stamp out the use of "bots" to buy tickets, Ticketmaster cancelled up to 50,000 of them which it deemed suspicious, however, some ordinary fans have been punished in the process.

Liam later had his say, but it didn't provide any comfort for affected fans. One fan asked on X: "Liam, what do you think of the ticket situation? Thinking fans are bots and getting their money returned?". He responded: "I don't make the rules. We're trying to do the right thing. It is what it is. I'm the singer. Get off my case.".

In another tweet, Liam doubled down, writing: "I know loads of people that ain’t got tickets even family members and there upset but there not being mean and shouting hurty wurty stuff.". The Manchester band issued a stark warning last year that "thousands of fake tour tickets" had been sold.

Loyal fans had already been hit with strife following the “dynamic pricing” of their reunion tour. Sales company Ticketmaster came under fire after upping prices in line with huge demand - which brothers Noel and Liam both condemned. In a further blow, some devastated buyers have now received emails cancelling their tickets and accusing them of being illegal purchasers.

The messages state that Ticketmaster "identified that bots were used to make this purchase.". It then urged customers to fill out a form to try to solve the dispute for entry to the shows, which kick off in July. "Our heads have been pretty battered these past 24 hours.

"I felt sick in the stomach. It’s a band you’ll never experience or see again and it’s been on my bucket list for years. "It just feels like my dreams have been completely crushed.". She added: "A lot of fans are wanting answers as to why this has happened, and we’ve just got no answers whatsoever.".

Leighah then told of the financial implication of the purchase and said the ticket, accommodation and travel for the gig had amounted to around £400. A spokesperson from Ticketmaster told ITV: “Anyone who has been contacted and believes a refund was made in error has been sent a form to fill in for the tour’s promoters to review.”.

Last year, the band announced they were reuniting for a run of dates in London, Dublin, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Manchester. The gigs are the band's first since the Rock en Seine festival in 2009 at which Liam and Noel famously fell out. OASIS brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher have revealed a 17 gig comeback tour next summer - here are the details.
