Fans think rock band will sell ‘negative tickets’ after huge clash with Oasis reunion 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, fans reckon Welsh band 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.

Fans had criticised Catfish that there was ‘no chance’ they would sell out Cardiff’s Principality Stadium and the spot in the capital, adding it would ‘be embarrassingly undersold’.

General sale for the stadium shows started last Friday and there are still tickets available on Ticketmaster.

And now, fans reckon it’s even less likely it will 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.”

As others put: “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.”

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.”

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.”
