When I was learning to play guitar, I used to play this all the time. My wife asked me if I would PLEASE STOP!
I said "maybeeee…."

One of my favorite local rock clubs is promoting a concert by an Oasis tribute band. A group of musicians who aren't Oasis but got together and play Oasis songs while touring the country to audiences that pay to see that. Judging by the size of the club, hundreds of actual people spending fifteen dollars each.

One of my ex-students, in fact, heads up a Blondie band. They also do other new wave songs. I scroll past in a hurry when stuff pops up on facebook.

Judging by the size of the club, hundreds of actual people spending fifteen dollars each. At a certain point in a band's existence I think seeing the tribute would be preferable to seeing the real deal, and I'm pretty sure Oasis has reached that point. Like, if you have fond memories of listening to Oasis in the '90s and you and a few friends want to go out and get liquored up and hear all those old songs you loved at one point in your life, this tribute band is gonna deliver, and at a much lower price than if you were to pay to see whatever either of the Gallaghers are doing now in the hopes that maybe at the end they'd play "Cigarettes and Alcohol" or whatever.
Even if given the option of a reunited Oasis vs a tribute band I think you'd get more bang for your buck with the tribute act, not just in the sense of professionalism (and y'know, the likelihood that they'd actually complete their set) but in the sense that they're not going to fuck around with the later albums that nobody listened to more than once – they're just gonna lay all the hits on you.
