Noel Gallagher appeared to be hard at work as he arrived at a London recording studio on Friday, while his brother Liam flew out of the country amid the Oasis reunion.
The guitarist, 57, and his brother Liam, 51, announced Tuesday that they will reunite on stage for the first time in 15 years to perform in the UK and Ireland.
The couple are expected to earn a whopping £50 million from the shows, with the first show taking place in Cardiff on July 4.
Noel cut a casual figure in a navy polo shirt and jeans, while shielding his eyes with sunglasses as he made his way into the building.
Meanwhile, Liam is on a well-deserved family holiday in France, while Oasis hysteria grips Britain.

A source close to Liam told Mirror:’He’s been busy and knew he wouldn’t get any peace if he stayed at home this week, people wanted to talk about the reunion or the gigs, he and his partner Debbie were already being bombarded with ticket requests and guest lists too, so the best thing to do was to go get some sun and get away from it all.
“He’s with Debbie and lots of his closest family – he even took his mum Peggy with him. It’s just what he needed to recharge his batteries. Obviously he’ll be keeping an eye on ticket sales but he’s been told not to worry and, let’s face it, the reaction has been incredible and unprecedented.
‘Liam is excited and once he has rested and rehearsed it will surprise no one when he promises that the comeback shows will be biblical.’
Meanwhile, Oasis fans have been left devastated after the band revealed that all pre-sale codes giving early access to tickets for their highly anticipated shows in Britain and Ireland next summer have been issued.
Thousands of people had been waiting to find out if they could get tickets to the band’s reunion, with some taking to social media today to share their joy at being one step closer.
Those lucky enough to have received a code will be able to purchase tickets from 7pm tonight and skip the queue tomorrow.
In a message shared on their Instagram, they broke the hearts of thousands of people waiting in their inboxes for the codes by saying: ‘All ticket voting codes have already been sent to fans.

This is the email Oasis fans received today if they managed to get a pre-order code
Oasis fans who received the email were also given a number of tips ahead of the pre-sale start.
‘Do not purchase a code or transfer it to another person. Codes only work with the registered email address.
‘If you haven’t received a code to access the pre-sale, you can join the general sale tomorrow morning.’
One tweeted: ‘Oasis pre-order code is in the bank, come on, we’re already halfway there.’
The email sent at 12pm read: ‘Oasis Live ’25 UK ticket pre-sale voting access. You have been selected in the Oasis Live ’25 ticket voting to access the pre-sale!
‘Here is your unique code to access the UK pre-sale, which takes place between 7pm and 10pm BST tonight, Friday 30th August.’
The message also urged fans to have a Ticketmaster account registered with the email address used for voting and to log in to access the presale.
And he told people to make sure their details were up to date, including their mobile phone number, because they will be sent a verification code when they enter the queue.
Once through the queue, fans are encouraged to enter their unique code to unlock tickets, with a limit of four that can be purchased per code.
This comes after the band announced on Tuesday that they would reunite for a series of concerts in the UK and Ireland, their first since they split in 2009.
Ticket prices for the concerts were revealed yesterday, with tickets at Wembley Stadium in London starting at £74.25 and the most expensive ticket at £506.25.
Oasis will play five nights at the national stadium, along with five dates at Manchester’s Heaton Park, three at Edinburgh’s Murrayfield, two at Dublin’s Croke Park and two at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.
Noel Gallagher and his brother Liam have put their bitter split behind them and confirmed the band’s long-awaited reunion earlier this week, saying: “The big wait is over.”
The band had to reassure fans on Wednesday that confirmation emails would be sent to those who had taken part in the vote after claiming to have received an “unprecedented volume of interest”.
To take part in the vote, fans had to name who the band’s original drummer was, and were offered the options of Chris Sharrock, Alan White and the correct answer, Tony McCarroll, who played drums with the band from their formation until 1995.

Participants were also asked how many times they had seen the band.
Fans have been urging the brothers to reunite since their split, a split sparked by a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.
It has not been announced who will perform with Liam and Noel as part of Oasis.
Noel, 57, quit the Manchester rock group on August 28, 2009, saying he “simply couldn’t work with Liam for another day”, and the brothers have made negative comments about each other for more than a decade.
Oasis have also released a 30th anniversary edition of Definitely Maybe today.
The new edition of the group’s 1994 debut album will include outtakes, demos and alternate versions of songs recorded at the time, as well as a remastered version of the original LP.
The release is available as a four-LP vinyl box set, a two-CD set, colored vinyl, cassette, and digitally.
