Sharing an image of himself performing in front of crowds, he wrote: “Let’s do it again! Love and peace RA.”

Discussing the news, a source told The Sun: “Liam and Noel love Richard and his music, and quickly signed him up for the tour.

“They know there is massive crossover appeal with their fans and Richard got them going perfectly last time out. It’s going to be an even bigger party atmosphere next year.”

Ocean Colour Scene have expressed their interest in joining the group on tour, over 30 years after joining them on stage at Knebworth.

In 1996, the Britpop band played historic two nights at the Hertfordshire venue, with Ocean Colour Scene joining them on August 10. They played hits such as “The Day We Caught The Train” and “The Riverboat Song”, alongside a cover of The Small Faces' |Song Of A Baker”.

Asked whether the band would want to play at the upcoming Knebworth shows, singer Simon Fowler told reporters: “I'd love to, why not if they give us the nod?”
