THE NEWS
Oasis spent the '90s turning swagger into a stadium language, and the Gallaghers have never once pretended to care what institutions think of it. The band is set to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on November 14th at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, and neither Noel nor Liam plans to show up, play, or accept *, †. Whether anyone stands in for them is still unknown *.
THE LEGACY
- Oasis missed induction after their first nomination in 2024 and made the list in 2026 †.
- Liam's response to that first nomination: "Fuck the Rock n Roll hall of fame its full of BUMBACLARTS LG x" †.
- On skipping LA, Liam posted: "It's too far to be going for the night I got shit to do it's Christmas" †.
- Noel is booked in London that night at Goldie's EFG Jazz Festival, his first solo show since the reunion *, †.
- Past and present members include Bonehead, Gem Archer, Guigsy, Andy Bell, Tony McCarroll and Alan White *.
- Fellow 2026 inductees: Iron Maiden, Phil Collins, Wu-Tang Clan, Sade, Luther Vandross, Billy Idol and Joy Division/New Order †.
WHY IT MATTERS
Phil Collins said he hoped to meet Oasis there, decades after Noel called him the Antichrist, and now that room stays empty †. Oasis tour again next year, so the real unknown is not the trophy, it is who, if anyone, collects it *.
