The idea of Oasis getting back together has been flirted with over the years, with Liam Gallagher taking every opportunity to float a reunion, however alas there are no developments so far. Luckily, fans can stop crying their heart out though as they will be able to relive the good ol’ days of the 90s band, as the Gallagher brother, Liam, has taken it upon himself to launch a pub themed around Oasis in Manchester. And she’s electric!
Known as The Wonderwall, the musician is going back to his roots and opening the pub in his hometown of Burnage, south of Manchester and is set to be a stone’s throw away from Cringle Park. The announcement comes ahead of the 30 year anniversary of Oasis’ debut album, Definitely Maybe, which will also see Liam Gallagher tour the country with three huge homecoming gigs taking place at Manchester’s Co-op Live. He’s a busy man this year!
Images of the pub have been revealed and it looks like an absolute haven for Oasis fans as memorabilia and photos of the band will be adorned across every possible surface – from the walls to the beer mats. You’ll even find “Blur is rubbish!” scrawled on the bathroom walls in an ode to their music rivals from the 90s.
And it couldn’t be a pub by Liam Gallagher without a nod to his much-loved football club, Manchester City – United supporters, you gotta roll with it! Oasis fans can expect to find the pub decked out with sky blue booth seating and photos of the club’s top footballers above the bar.
But the love for the band doesn’t stop there! The musician also has plans to launch a range of beers on tap named after some of the bands top tracks. You can sip on the likes of Champagne Supernova (plenty of bubbles and melancholy notes in this one), Morning Glory, Songbird, Live Forever and Supersonic.
Plus, lovers of the band will able to listen to all of Oasis’ greatest hits as they sit back with a pint. And like the end of the night at clubs back in the day to signal closing time, the bar will communicate last orders by playing the band’s number one hit Wonderwall, which has sold around 2.4 million copies.
Liam Gallagher is yet to confirm an opening date and location for the Oasis-themed pub but we’ll be sure to keep you updated.
