Oasis have turned down the chance to perform at The Sphere in Las Vegas.
After reuniting for a series of successful shows this year, brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher have been inundated with offers for more gigs but the pair and their bandmates are said to have rejected a bid from The Sphere based on advice from their pal Bono.
A source told The Sun’s Bizarre column: “Noel has always worshipped U2’s ability to put on amazing shows, from Zooropa to PopMart and the Achtung Baby revival at The Sphere.
“Oasis have the power and money now after their Live ‘25 run to mount a residency at The Sphere.
“Their graphics team is excellent and they have the skills to design an immersive experience for fans at The Sphere, which would feature graphics of the band back in their Manchester days to the present day.
“But when the prospect of appearing at The Sphere was raised Noel said he wasn’t keen.
“He remembered Bono moaning about the massive cost of mounting a show there.
He’s always had an eye on the bottom line for him and the band from the cost of their shows.
“But he’s not going to waste money on a spectacle that will lose him and everyone else cash.”
Bono’s U2 had a residence at The Sphere from September 2023 to March 2024.
