First things first – how long are you gonna be standing like a muppet outside the shop before you even sniff a t-shirt?
Well, good news for all you Definitely Maybes out there: reports say that queues have been surprisingly chill. In fact, one fan in London claimed the wait time was… drumroll please… “not at all”.
Yep, no queues, no cries, no ‘Don’t Look Back in Anger’ tantrums.
BUT – don’t get caught off guard. These stores are tour-date-aligned and time slots are booking up faster than a Gallagher feud. So, if you fancy skipping the ‘Stand By Me’ misery and want to strut straight in like it’s 1996, book your slot online. Otherwise, you’ll be queueing like it’s Glasto toilets all over again.
🧾 “Money’s Too Tight (To Mention)” – Oh Wait, Wrong Band
Right, now for the bit that’ll make your wallet cry more than Noel watching City lose the treble. Here’s the damage in pounds sterling (£):
| Merch Item | Price (£) | Riff Reaction |
|---|---|---|
| T-Shirts (basic) | £35–40 | “Live Forever”? More like live frugal |
| Hoodies | £70 | For that ‘Acquiesce’ winter warmth |
| Adidas Collab Bucket Hat | £28 | Wonderhat! 🎩 |
| Adidas Collab Jacket | £95 | Because you’re a ‘Rock ’n’ Roll Star’ |
| Denim Jacket | £75 | Your new ‘Cigarettes & Alcohol’ jacket |
| Exclusive Vinyl – Single LP | £35 | Spinnin’ round like ‘Supersonic’ |
| Exclusive Vinyl – Double LP | £45 | Double the vinyl, double the vibes |
| Tour Programme | £20 | ‘Some Might Say’ that’s steep |
| Adidas Footy Shirt | £85 | For when it’s ‘Morning Glory FC’ |
| Keyrings & Small Bits | £10+ | ‘Half the World Away’ from affordable |
| Standard Bucket Hats | ~£40 | Still mad for hats, aren’t ya? |
Basically, if you’re planning on buying a hoodie, tee, vinyl, and bucket hat, you might need to remortgage your terraced house in Burnage. 💸
🛍️ “She’s Electric… And So Is the Till!”
Let’s be honest, this isn’t just merch – it’s wearable nostalgia. Wearing one of these shirts says, “I was there when the bickering brothers maybe (sort of) made peace.”
Even if they didn’t actually talk backstage. 😬
The pop-up stores are running in:
- 🏙️ London (Carnaby Street) – open from July 10
- 🧣 Manchester, Cardiff, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Dublin – popping up alongside tour dates
- 🎟️ And yes, they’re timed, so don’t just rock up expecting Liam to open the door with a pint in hand.
💬 “What’s the Story?” – Fan Reactions
Fans have been Champagne Supernova-ing over the vibe, posting pics of their merch hauls like they’ve just found the holy grail. Reddit’s been buzzing with happy punters and absolutely zero mentions of scraps. Must be a new record.
Though one fan did say, “I paid £70 for a hoodie and now I can’t afford beans on toast.”
Worth it? Course it is, lad.
🧢 FINAL RIFF VERDICT
If you’re an Oasis die-hard, this merch drop is the stuff of dreams. Prices are chunky, yes, but so is the nostalgia hit. Just don’t expect ‘Slide Away’ prices from a ‘Stop Crying Your Heart Out’ economy.
So whack on your best parka, belt out ‘Whatever’ at the queue, and remember:
“You gotta make it happen…”
…just maybe not all in one payday.
Did you visit the Oasis pop-up? Send us your merch haul and we’ll rate your drip! Or cry with you over the bank statement.
Proper job, that. Now pass the bucket hat and vinyl before it’s all gone. YESS MUN! 🧢🔥
