Rob Murray from Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan, recently said that the “dream trip” became extra special when he got chatting with lead guitarist, Gem Archer, at a restaurant in Heathrow.
He also took a selfie with Oasis co-founder and guitarist Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs after bumping into him at an airport luggage carousel.
Rob said Archer spoke highly of Oasis’s opening reunion tour gig in Cardiff and how he also said he had enjoyed performing with Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds at Cardiff Castle in 2019.
Rob explained to Archer that he was going to see their gig in Toronto, Ontario, and stay with a friend who had flown over to watch their Wembley gig. He said, “It was amazing being in his company for 20 minutes. “I could have talked all things Oasis, High Flying Birds and guitars all day – this is one time I wish my flight had been delayed.”
Rob stated that he also asked Archer what would happen after the Oasis tour and “if there was new material on the way”.
Rob claimed that, “He replied, as things stand, after this tour, ‘it’s back to the day job’ – recording with High Flying Birds.”
Oasis is bringing its Live ’25 Tour to the New York City area this Labor Day weekend, with a two-night run at MetLife Stadium, just across the Hudson in East Rutherford, New Jersey
The MetLife shows are one of just three American stops for the British band, which has reunited after their 2009 split.
