Bob Odenkirk Thinks It Made Sense for Oasis to Skip the Rock Hall Ceremony

On Saturday night, Bob Odenkirk made it clear how excited he was to be inducting Oasis into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame — but he also admitted to the crowd at the Peacock Theater that it made sense for the band to skip the show. “I would have been worried if they had come,” the Better Call Saul star admitted.

Odenkirk reflected on the two times he’d seen Oasis play live over the course of their career — the first being a show at the Universal Amphitheater 28 years ago, which he said wasn’t great because it was clear that they “didn’t want to be there.” The second time was the band’s 2025 show at Metlife Stadium, which, he yelled, “was one of the best nights of my life!”

In celebrating the music of the band, Odenkirk opined that their songs “are delicate compositions embroidered with inscrutably complex melodies… I’m kidding!” He laughed. “Fucking bangers! They make you sing along before you even finish hearing them, even for the first time.”

Additionally, Odenkirk revealed that he would listen to Oasis songs every day on the Better Call Saul set, because “I needed that injection of swagger, energy, and moxie. I needed it — a dose of Viagra for the ego.”

Stephen Wilson Jr. then covered “Wonderwall” for the ceremony. Check out the rest of Consequence’s Rock & Roll Hall of Fame coverage, including details on U2’s surprise performance.
