Former Oasis drummer Alan White has fueled excitement among fans by hinting that he may be part of the band’s highly anticipated 2025 reunion tour.

On Sept. 1, White, who played with Oasis from 1995 to 2004, shared a photo on social media featuring his drum kit, adorned with Union Jack-themed artwork reminiscent of the band’s iconic era. The post has sparked widespread speculation that White could be joining the Gallagher brothers on stage once again.

The Oasis Live ’25 tour announced on Aug. 27, marks the first time in 16 years that Liam and Noel Gallagher will perform together. The tour, which includes 17 dates across major U.K. and Ireland cities, has already sold out.

White originally joined Oasis in April 1995, replacing original drummer Tony McCarroll. During his nine years with the band, White contributed to four studio albums, including the seminal sophomore effort (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? and Be Here Now, the fastest-selling LP in U.K. recorded music history. His drumming became an integral part of Oasis’s sound, and he played a significant role in the recording process, often shaping the rhythm and feel of the band’s tracks.

Meanwhile, McCarroll has indicated that he will not be part of the reunion, telling MailOnline: “They haven’t reached out yet and to be honest I’m not holding my breath.”

“Would I consider being involved? I don’t know. At the end of the day I’m not the only ex-member left behind, so I’ll just crack on.” He added, “I haven’t made up my mind if I’m going to watch them play next year either. I was at their last ever gig in the U.K. at the V Festival. It’s weird and ironic that I was there at the first and last gig.”

He added later, “Whether it’s been a blag for 15-years I haven’t got a clue. They’re brothers at the end of the day- maybe their mum Peggy clashed their heads together and said ‘sort it out’.”

The reunion announcement has also caused a surge in Oasis’s streaming numbers. Following a teaser on Aug. 25, the band’s daily U.S. on-demand audio streams increased from 750,000 to 820,000. By Aug. 26, streams hit 1.31 million, and after the official tour announcement on Aug. 27, streams skyrocketed to 2.80 million.

The Britpop band’s most iconic single, “Wonderwall,” peaked at No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1996. The band also achieved a top 10 album on the Billboard 200 with (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, which reached No. 4 in 1996, while their debut album, Definitely Maybe, and their third album, Be Here Now, both charted on the Billboard 200.
