Oasis ticker sales for the dates so far announced

will bring in around £400 million according to the Times and a study by Birmingham Uni. The Gallagher’s are likely to get around £50 million each apparently.

I’ll admit to liking Oasis back in the day, but no way I’d pay the outrageous sums being touted for tickets. I’ve even read some people stating there they’re going into debt to get a ticket. Guess it’s all about priorities in life?
