Oasis fans were left buzzing earlier this week when the 90s rock band announced they are getting back together for a 2025 reunion tour next summer.

The band's official Facebook page has now announced a pre-sale ballot which is live until 7pm BST on Wednesday, August 31.Registration for the ballot involves a series of three questions - one of which is about a forming member of the band that fans must answer correctly to be considered for the pre-sale.Fans desperate to get their hands on pre-sale, which will go live this Friday, August 30, might want to pay attention.Original Oasis drummer Anthony McCarroll, better known as Tony, is being frequently searched online by fans at the minute due to his identity being one of the questions in the pre-sale registration.McCarroll first joined the band in the late 1980s, back when it was still called The Rain and neither of the Gallagher brothers were even a part of the line-up.

Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs on guitar, Paul "Guigsy" McGuigan on bass and Chris Hutton on vocals and keys formed the band, according to the Mirror.

In 1991, they invited Liam to join the band as the lead vocalist when he suggested they change the group's name to Oasis. Noel later followed suit after he attended their first ever performance at the Boardwalk Club in Manchester on August 14, 1991.
