GUYS HE DID THE THING

[oacest]

It's almost as though Liam can't stop scratching at the sore caused by his brother's antagonistic departure.

We're sitting in a back room at Selfridges department store, where later he'll sign autographs for people who buy T-shirts or parkas from his Pretty Green clothing range.

……

But why is he still so furious? One muso school of thought has always maintained that, for all their high-profile bickering and nasty name-calling, the Gallagher brothers are actually far closer than the average sibling pair, and need each other much more than they'll ever publicly admit, both personally and musically.

The double-act: Oasis's amazing success was built on the combination of Noel's songs and Liam's voice

"I don't think he thinks that," growls Liam. "He's got lots of people around him giving him false pretences ..."

……

"Obviously it's going to be different without Noel and Noel's fans will sneer at it but then, you know, if they don't like the music, don't f***ing buy it. Don't come to the gig, cos you're not going to be hearing Don't Look Back in Anger ... But I do like to think that the 250,000 people who came to see us at Knebworth didn't come just for Noel."

Good old days: Oasis in 2006: from left to right, Gem Archer, Noel, Andy Bell and Liam

And he's right - they didn't come for Noel. They came for Liam singing Noel's music.

……

Yet when a Selfridges salesperson mentions that someone has bought a single example of every piece available, spending in the process a sum well in excess of £5,000, Liam instantly assumes it must have been Noel.

"That'll probably be our kid, then. I hear he's been in here having a nosey at it, cos someone caught him and asked if they could help him, and he gave them a dirty look and walked off."

But surely it's more likely to have been a well-heeled fan who just really likes the clothes? It's almost as though Liam can't stop scratching at the sore caused by his brother's antagonistic departure.

……

Liam claims, then, that "life is good". "I'm buzzing. I'm happy. Dead happy." But he'd be happier with Noel back in his life, right? Wrong.

"Well, I'll say this right now: he's got another f***ing think coming. If he thinks he can ring me up at any given stage in his f***ing lifetime, I'll be busy. I'll always be busy when he rings me up." He pauses, grins sharkishly.

what can they do on the next gigs that’s crazier than ass grab plus giggling. Can we place bets. I put 4 dollars in simulating sex at one point.

i feel like the ass jiggle might already count for that in a manner of speaking...... but i guess we'll have to see if/how the NA leg of the tour changes their onstage behaviour, whether the hugely reduced attention over here will result in them not being as demonstrative (in terms of hugging/handholding, not necessarily in terms of them being giggly at each other), or in a general aura of Fuck It We Ball: Tonsil Hockey Edition

omg do you have a link to the russel brand threesome thing please?

that makes it sound so gross lol, but yes here

After a bit of banter, Liam signed autographs on McDonald’s brown paper bags – the only thing available. Then he asked where he could get a drink. It was 10 a.m., pubs were closed, but Karen knew a place: her aunt’s pub, Busy Bodies, on Upper Dominic Street.

Walking through Dominic Street, Liam joked: “Should I trust you girls? All in your Nike runners, leading me through the flats… am I gonna get mugged?”

At the pub, among locals who didn’t even know who he was, Liam bought drinks for everyone. For the girls, all underage, he ordered his Irish childhood favourite: red lemonade and Tayto crisps.

[...]

Before leaving, he christened them “The McDonald’s Girls” and promised to play them a song. Weeks later, at a Cork gig, he spotted them in the crowd, shouted out “The McDonald’s Girls,” and launched into Live Forever.
