Oasis fans hoping to catch the reunited rock icons under the iconic Pyramid Stage can officially give up hope. Frontman Liam Gallagher has completely shut down speculation that the legendary Britpop group will headline Glastonbury Festival. Rumors ran wild over the weekend after betting operators named Oasis as the 4/1 favorites to top the festival lineup at Worthy Farm. But Liam wasted no time jumping onto X to extinguish the frenzy before it got any bigger.

Is Oasis playing Glastonbury Responding directly to eager fans online, the vocalist gave a firm, no-nonsense answer about the rumored appearance. He bluntly stated that the performance simply is not happening, dashing the hopes of thousands who held out for a surprise festival stop. In classic Gallagher fashion, the rock star did not hold back his thoughts on the festival's famous atmosphere. He launched into a fiery tirade targeting Glastonbury's distinct crowd, calling out festivalgoers who wear foam clogs and wave massive flags in the crowd during sets. When a fan questioned whether those popular festival accessories were tolerated on the grounds, Liam made his stance crystal clear. He explained that if flag-waving and foam footwear are on the menu, he is officially out.

What did Liam Gallagher say about Glastonbury The frontman even shared a bizarre dream he allegedly experienced regarding the event. He told his followers he dreamt a brigade of Croc-wearing attendees stormed the stage and began beating him with their flags, adding that it took him a long time to calm down after waking up. This is far from the first time Liam has poked fun at the massive music gathering. In the past, the musician famously scoffed at the Worthy Farm vibe, comparing the audience to a room full of jamboree teachers. With Oasis already selling out huge stadium runs for their long-awaited comeback, the band appears focused strictly on their own massive standalone shows. Anyone holding out for a Worthy Farm miracle will just have to settle for stadium seats.
