Neither Gallagher is coming. Not to play, not to accept, not even to stand there and look bored — and Liam Gallagher, in true Liam fashion, has a very Liam reason why.

Rolling Stone confirmed Nov. 9 that neither Noel nor Liam Gallagher will attend the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Saturday, Nov. 14, at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. They won’t attend, perform, or accept the honor in person.

So where will they be instead? Noel will be 5,400 miles away that night, performing at Goldie’s EFG Jazz Festival at London’s Royal Festival Hall — his first solo performance since the Oasis reunion, with two solo sets as part of Goldie’s “Dare To Dream” orchestral shows.

Liam gave Rolling Stone no reason for skipping. But on X on Nov. 10, he responded to the report in words only Liam could deliver: “It’s too far to be going for the night I got shit to do it’s Christmas” and “I’d rather stay and stack the dishwasher,” adding, “If it was in the UK I’d be there but for some reason it’s in LA and that’s miles away.”

Yes — he’d rather stay home and stack the dishwasher than fly to Los Angeles to enter the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

This isn’t the first time Liam has treated the Rock Hall with, shall we say, a certain attitude. In 2024, he reacted to Oasis’s first Rock Hall nomination by essentially rejecting the honor; Oasis weren’t inducted that year. They made the class of 2026, and Liam had earlier indicated he planned to attend — though it was hard to tell if he was being sarcastic. Now we know.

It is unclear whether any other Oasis members — Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs, Gem Archer, Paul “Guigsy” McGuigan, Andy Bell, Tony McCarroll, or Alan White — will attend.

Oasis will be inducted alongside fellow 2026 inductees Iron Maiden, Phil Collins, Wu-Tang Clan, Sade, Luther Vandross, Billy Idol, and Joy Division/New Order. Here’s how to watch the ceremony on Saturday.

By skipping, Oasis join a long list of Rock Hall no-shows including Paul McCartney, David Bowie, Axl Rose and the Sex Pistols. At least they’re in good — if famously absent — company.
