Oasis will miss their induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame this week.
In April, officials from the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation announced that the English rock band, led by brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher, were among the artists selected for the class of 2026 under the performer category.
But on Monday, editors at Rolling Stone reported that Oasis - who reunited for a major world tour last year - won't "accept the award or perform" at the ceremony held at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles on Saturday.
Noel has confirmed he will be a guest at Goldie's EFG Jazz Festival show in London on the same day.
In a posting spree on X on Tuesday morning, Liam explained their absence to various followers, writing, "It's too far to be going for the night I got s**t to do it's Christmas," and "I dont like award ceremonies they freak me out I dont know why I just get weird vibes (sic)."
He added, "If it was in the UK I'd be there but for some reason it's in LA and that's miles away."
Liam also insisted to another fan that he "never said" they were going in the first place.
Current and former band members Gem Archer, Paul Arthurs, Andy Bell, Tony McCarroll, Paul McGuigan, and Alan White will also be inducted. It's unclear whether any of the musicians will go to the ceremony.
Liam, who was critical of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame after the band's first nomination in 2024, appeared to have a change of heart about the organisation on X following the induction news.
"Reverse psychology vibes in the area Oasis RnR hall of farmers I mean famers," he wrote at the time, seemingly referring to his remarks about their previous two nominations. "I wanna thank all the people who voted for us it's a real honour ever since I was a little kid and singing in the shower I'd dream about 1 day being in the RnR hall of fame it's true what they say anything is possible if you have a dream (sic)."
Other artists to be inducted this weekend include Billy Idol, Phil Collins, Iron Maiden, Joy Division/New Order, Sade, the late Luther Vandross, and Wu-Tang Clan.
To be eligible for induction, an individual artist or band must have released its first commercial recording at least 25 years prior to the year of nomination.
