So... the new line-up is more or less settled down.

Liam
Gem
Andy (switched to guitar)
Jay (mostly live)
Chris
bassist yet to be found (I hope it's Arctic Monkeys' Andy Nicholson, who quit after Whatever People Say I Am... then it's gonna be not 1 but 2 namesakes of mine in the band )

Possible album release - July this year. "If we don't come up with anything else, it's gonna be Oasis"; "People are gonna say "it's still Oasis, but it's not Oasis without Noel". Life's too short to be arsing about that".

Personally, I'd still love the brothers to kiss and make up, but still this might work... maybe they're gonna release another instant classic, which they haven't done in years. DBTT was half clasic, half average, DOYS has great album flow and a couple of all-time greatest tracks, but still lacked the killer touch. That's imho.

What do you think about the new formation?
