Oasis fans today (Tues) gathered outside the record shop where the Gallagher brothers brought music from as youngsters after the ban's reunion was confirmed.

Brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher today (Tues) unveiled a mammoth run of stadium tour dates next year after a 15 year hiatus.

And fans in their home city of Manchester couldn't contain their excitement as they turned up at Sifters Records, where the brothers bought their albums as kids.

The shop, immortalised in their single 'Shakermaker', was closed this morning but fans flocked to the store, also home to a mural of the brothers after news broke.

Sports writer Razz Ashraf, 29, drove down to the store before work and said the reunion was a 'monumental moment'.

Speaking outside the store, he said: "I've just been blasting [Oasis songs] Shakermaker and Columbia, I am buzzing."

"I set my alarm for 7.30 this morning, I woke up and I felt pure excitement and ecstasy. It's an amazing feeling. They've reunited after 15 years."

"I've come down to Sifters, that's where it all started, that's the record shop where they bought their records before they formed the band."

"The owner was the one who educated them on music and there's a big mural on the side. I wanted to feel the energy of where it all started."

"I've been to the shop a few times but never seen this mural actually, it's stunning."

The brothers - who shared a famously volatile relationship - broke up the band for good in 2009 after a row backstage on tour.

A public war of words broke out over the ensuing years and the pair are believed to have never been in the same room since.

But talks are believed to have began in recent months and they secretly came together for a photoshoot to promote the gigs.

Razz added: "It's not just the band to getting back together, it's beautiful that two brothers have reunited. Just to see them let bygones be bygones is amazing."

"I never got the chance to see them live first time round, I was too young."

"Parents and teachers would tell us about them as kids, but we never really took it in, we were too young."

"It's only as you get older, you do your research and you realise what they meant to Manchester, they put the city on the map musically on a global scale."

"For many Mancunians, they're the blueprint of what a Manc is. The swagger, the way they dress, the way they talk. It's a monumental moment, I'm so happy."

"They need to pack their bags and leave Hampstead Heath or wherever they live and come back home to Manchester."

The band will hit the road next year with gigs which will take in Cardiff, Dublin, Manchester and London.

Razz said he was hoping to get his hands on tickets, adding: "I want to go to all of them that I can. I'm definitely getting a ticket."
