Oasis guitarist Paul ‘Bonehead’ Arthurs pauses reunion tour to undergo prostate cancer treatment

Paul ‘Bonehead’ Arthurs, co-founder and guitarist of the iconic band Oasis, has announced a diagnosis of prostate cancer, requiring him to take a planned break from the ongoing reunion tour. At 60 years old, Arthurs disclosed that he is responding well to treatment but will miss upcoming shows in Seoul, Tokyo, Melbourne, and Sydney. Following previous successful treatment for tonsil cancer in 2022, he expressed sadness about missing parts of the tour but reassured fans of his recovery and return expected by the South American leg in November. The reunion tour, featuring the Gallagher brothers Noel and Liam, follows their famous split 15 years ago and has been a significant event for fans eager to see the band perform together again. The official Oasis account sent well wishes for Arthurs’ treatment and anticipated his return on stage. Health experts highlighted the importance of early prostate cancer detection, noting its often symptomless early stages but treatability when caught early.
