Oasis is back, and so are the wild ticket snafus! Find out why fans are fuming and what it means for concerts across Australia. 🎶🤘
It’s official: Oasis is gearing up for their highly-anticipated 2025 Australian tour! Fans are buzzing with excitement, but as they go through the old rituals of ticket buying, the experience is feeling anything but nostalgic. With ticket sales expressing more drama than a soap opera, hardened fans found themselves deep in the trenches, navigating presales, crazy queue times, and prices that could make your jaw drop. Remember when your biggest concern was whether to wear your favorite band tee or that fresh new outfit? Yeah, those days are gone, folks!
The last time Oasis graced Australian stages was back in 2005, a decade and a half ago, and plenty of die-hard fans, like Michael Hartt who saw them five times across the major cities, are eager to relive those exhilarating memories. But the VIP invitation-only ticket sales look like they’re a league of their own as fans have been reporting waits longer than some airport security lines. Our friendly neighborhood ticket scalpers are already lurking behind every corner as fans grapple not just with scoring a ticket, but with what price to pay.
With complaints pouring in about extortionate ticket prices and the wait times resembling a bloody marathon, the social media sphere is ablaze with Oasis fans venting their frustrations. "Insane prices!" echo throughout Twitter, where hopeful concert-goers reminisce about their glory days of listening to ‘Wonderwall’ while reminiscing about the last time they actually had fun buying tickets. Meanwhile, the Victorian government has jumped into the mix, introducing tough anti-scalping measures to keep ticket prices in check. If someone’s looking to resell a ticket, they can only do so at no more than 10% above its original value. Looks like the scalpers are in for a wild ride too, then!
As fans get swept up in this ticket-snagging frenzy, there’s also an interesting comparison to be drawn between Oasis and the recent Taylor Swift ticket rollercoaster. With both artists wielding massive fan followings, the only difference appears to be the length of the queues—with some Oasis fans even claiming they've never witnessed queues of such epic proportions!
Fun fact: Did you know that before Oasis shot to fame, they were famously booed offstage at a local gig? Talk about a rags-to-riches story! And here’s another gem: the band’s legendary ‘(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?’ album sold over 22 million copies worldwide! Let's hope they can outdo themselves and create a concert experience just as explosive in 2025!
