IT'S THE tour that Oasis fans around the world have been waiting for, and now Liam Gallagher has revealed even more exciting news.
The "mad for it" star, 52, has revealed he'll perform with brother Noel, 58, for first time in 16 years – TOMORROW.
Liam revealed he's set to begin rehearsals for the Oasis tour – which will be the first time the band have played together since 2009.
The group's last gig was at V Festival that year, before they split following a huge row backstage at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.
The former feuding brothers have now put their differences aside as they get ready for the tour of the decade which kicks off next month.
Noel and the rest of the Oasis have already kicked off rehearsals, but now it's time for Liam to join them.
The singer revealed the news in a X/Twitter chat yesterday.
One fan asked: "Happy Sunday man! Are you ready for rehearsals
"There are only a few days left and you're joining the others?'
To which Liam replied: "Yes Rasta D I'm in Tuesday to blow there minds [sic]."
Another fan asked whether the Wonderwall singer was "excited" to begin rehearsals, to which Liam replied: "Can't wait."
REAL REASON FOR REUNION
This latest exciting news comes just days after The Sun revealed the REAL reason for Oasis getting back together.
According to our sources, Noel's eldest daughter Anais Gallagher was instrumental in helping her famous father and his brother Liam get talking again.
The model, who is from Noel's first marriage to Meg Mathews, got to work on healing the rift, following her dad's split from second wife Sara MacDonald.
The 25-year-old figured the breakdown of her dad's marriage could be an opportunity for her dad to focus on getting Oasis back together, and also reconcile with his younger sibling.
An insider said: "Anais was one of the biggest sources of comfort and support for Noel following his divorce.
"She was the one that was helping him get back on his feet and return to doing things he loved that had fallen by the wayside.
"Over the years, Noel had offered an olive branch to Liam, but he'd never taken it up.
"Anais could tell her dad really wanted both his brothers, Liam and Paul, by his side after the split so was determined to get them back in touch.
"She gets on great with Liam's sons Gene and Lennon so she asked them if their dad would be willing to hear her out.
