Oasis, the first images of the tour photo book

The Oasis reunion tour lives again, awaiting the documentary film expected in cinemas by the end of the year, also in a photographic book. Titled “Oasis Live ’25 Opus”, the book collects photos by Simon Emmett, the official photographer of the reunion tour of the iconic Britpop band, who followed Noel and Liam Gallagher everywhere, with direct access to the stage and backstage. It will be released in May.

Some images have already been released: they are those, for press use, released by Live Nation, which set up the tour, between one date and another. But the book will collect hundreds of previously unpublished images. And not just concerts.

«We saw the audience having a blast, but the band and crew were having just as much fun. That’s what made it all so magical. I just hope that, in some small way, he managed to capture the essence of the joy that characterized him,” says Emmett. There will be 1000 photographs collected in the book in total, taken from the day Liam and Noel were taken together for the first time in years for the official promotional photo published to coincide with the announcement of the tour.

Here is a preview of the project:

The book will be available in various editions. The classic one, the “Live foreved edition”, costs 65 pounds, i.e. 75 euros: it includes 336 pages. The “Wonderwall edition” costs 350 pounds – 404 euros – and includes 648 pages. The “Glory edition” also includes a voice note from Emmett on a vinyl record: it will be printed in just 3 thousand copies at the price of 1,250 pounds each, i.e. 1440 euros. The most coveted edition, however, will be the “Supernova edition”, of which only 100 copies will be produced worldwide. The cost? 12 thousand pounds, i.e. 14 thousand euros.
