There is a long list of artists that have supported Oasis over the years, as well as those who have supported the Gallagher brothers on tours with their respective solo projects, including the Verve, Pulp and Manic Street Preachers to name but a few.
We asked our readers who they think should be on the line-up for the Oasis Live ‘25 shows and they did not disappoint.
Amusingly, the name that cropped up the most was Blur, who had a famous rivalry with Oasis during the Britpop era. There were plenty of other jokes answers as well, mainly referencing the Gallagher brothers’ age – for example ‘zimmer frames,’ ‘Age Concern,’ and ‘hearing aids.” One reader also suggested a ‘mediation counsellor,’ referencing the brothers’ rocky relationship and years of feuding.
But there were plenty of serious answers to choose from, too. Here are our readers’ suggestions.

4. The Stone Roses
Stone Roses are another iconic Manchester band from the 90s. The last time they performed was 2017 when they played their last reunion tour, so it's unlikely they would reform again for this. | Getty Images
