Bonehead would “love” to see an Oasis reunion he says on Radio X

Manchester legend Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs hosted a Radio X Coronation Weekend special and said he’d “love” to see an Oasis reunion.

Both Noel and Liam have solo careers now, but the band’s former guitarist said he didn’t know if it would happen but added: “Never say never.”

He said that sometimes he thinks there’s no need for it because it’s been done but he doesn’t always feel that.

“When I’m on stage with Liam Gallagher as a solo artist, and I come out and we play Rock ‘N’ Roll Star and the place erupts,” Bonehead continued. “People are bouncing higher and harder than they did at some of the gigs back in the day. I look at that first 10 rows when I’m playing an arena with Liam, and they’re like 16 or 17 years of age. These people weren’t even born until well into Oasis’ career.

“So, if there was a reunion, wouldn’t it be worth it for them? To come and witness that band? In that sense it would be worth just one gig next year for those kids at the front, who are jumping and bouncing at Liam’s gigs?”

He then joked: “You hear that Liam? You hear that Noel?”

As for himself, Bonehead revealed that people have asked if he’d do a reunion, but he’s not sure because maybe it should be Gem Archer, who was in the band longer than he was.

“Who should do it? It could cause wars,” he added.
