Video: Beady Eye In Hamburg
Below are a few videos from yesterday's Beady Eye gig at the Große Freiheit 36 in Hamburg, Germany.
Liam Gallagher
The singer made his name in rock band Oasis alongside his brother Noel Gallagher, and is now promoting his new group Beady Eye. He has revealed a naughty moment from his past, when he decided to help himself to someone else’s property.
"Last time I stole was when I was a kid, man," Liam told Q Magazine. "A mountain bike. I was walking home and I thought, ‘F**k this, I’m knackered, there’s a bike there.’ It wasn’t locked up. It was outside some f**king shop. I thought, ‘I’ll have a go of that.’ Took it home and sold it, 50 quid."
Now a father himself, Liam would never condone such behaviour. He has one child with wife Nicole Appleton and two kids from other relationships and says being a dad has changed him. When he was a young man his only thought was for himself, but now his loved ones and foremost in his mind at all times.
"I’d go and get f**king trolleyed," he revealed, when asked what he’d do if the world was ending. "But you don't want to be doing that when you’ve got kids, do you? You’d have to just go and grab your kids and you missus and have a f**king super-cuddle."

Don't Believe The Truth is the sixth studio album by Oasis, released on May 30, 2005. It reached #1 in the UK Albums Chart with first week sales of just under 238,000. The album entered the U.S. charts at #12, the highest any Oasis album has reached there since 1997 with Be Here Now, although its chart stay was brief. The album went triple platinum in the UK in the first week of 2006, and is the ninth fastest selling album there. As of August 2006, Don't Believe the Truth has sold approximately 2.5 million copies worldwide.
Every member of the band contributed to the writing of tracks for the album, and the album is the first where all duties were divided between the bandmembers. On some of the tracks regular bass player Andy Bell handled guitar, while Gem and Noel contributed bass to other songs. Don't Believe the Truth is the first Oasis record to feature the drumming of Zak Starkey, who replaced Oasis' longtime member Alan White.
Liam also had a larger impact on the album by his developing songwriting. Noel has said that this album is his favourite of Oasis' last four, because all members have contributed to it. This, he claims, has given it a different feel to a typically Noel-written Oasis album.
The band embarked on a massive world-wide tour and started off at the London Astoria for their Don't Believe the Truth Tour.
Recording
The recording process for Don't Believe the Truth was prolonged. The album was originally supposed to be released around summer/autumn 2004, with an initial 3-4 week session produced by Death in Vegas. The recording finally began after Alan White's departure in January 2004 at Sawmills Studios in Cornwall, the same place where Oasis had recorded their debut album Definitely Maybe. These sessions were completed but the band weren't happy with the results.
Noel has commented since on numerous occasions that there was no problem with the work done by Death In Vegas, but he felt the songs they were working on were simply not good enough to form a record, and felt a break was needed in which new material would have to be written. In Noel's words: "we were trying to polish a turd". Around 10 tracks were worked on with Death In Vegas of which, according to Noel, 6 were "not even good enough to make the b-sides". Four of the tracks which eventually appeared on the album were worked on with Death In Vegas, those songs being: "Turn Up The Sun", "Mucky Fingers", "A Bell Will Ring" and "The Meaning of Soul", although all of these had extra work done to them or were re-recorded before being released.
After a short break in which many new songs, including "Let There Be Love", "Lyla" and "Part Of The Queue" were written, the band reconvened at their Wheeler End Studios with Noel as producer. The band were joined on these sessions by The Who's drummer Zak Starkey. In June 2004, Oasis debuted two new songs from these sessions, the Liam-written "The Meaning of Soul" and the Gem-written "A Bell Will Ring" at two live shows in Poole and at the Glastonbury Festival.
After hearing of the band's production problems from Oasis manager Marcus Russell, American producer Dave Sardy expressed interest in taking over production duties. Sardy was given tapes of existing recording sessions to mix, and after his work was praised by the band, he arrived in the UK to oversee new recording sessions at Olympic Studios in London. These sessions didn't last long before he asked the band to travel to Los Angeles and re-record most of the album there, as he felt more comfortable working in a studio closer to home. With the band eventually agreeing to this, recording sessions began at Capitol Studios in October 2004 with the band spending around 9 weeks there.
Release
The decision to have the leadoff single, "Lyla", on the album was a controversial one, prompted by the label's feeling that there wasn't a suitable lead single among the tracks originally presented. As a result, the decision was taken to record "Lyla", a song which Noel had written and demoed a year previously, but which wasn't recorded by the band during the previous recording sessions. It was decided that Dave Sardy would remix Noel's original demo with Liam recording a set of lead vocals and Zak adding a fresh drum track. "Lyla" reached number one on the UK Singles Chart and number nineteen on the U.S. Modern Rock Tracks chart. After having initial reservations about the choice of the first single being taken out of the hands of the band, Noel, who initially wanted "Mucky Fingers" to be the first single, has now reluctantly conceded that the song has indeed "done the business".
In April 2005, four tracks from a promo disc leaked: "The Meaning of Soul", "Mucky Fingers", "Keep the Dream Alive", and "Let There Be Love". The full album found its way onto the Internet on May 3, 2005, when Apple Inc. accidentally put the album up early for sale on their iTunes Music Store service in Germany. While there was no official comment by Apple or by Oasis management, it was speculated that Apple simply got "May 30" confused with "May 03" or "May 3".

Beady Eye
Liam Gallagher
Noel Gallagher
Oasis
Pretty Green
The man with the fringe talks to Hannah Nathanson about competing with his brother and having his first drink in five months
How did you celebrate Man City winning the FA Cup?
Oh, man, that was good. I hadn't had a drink for five months and I had a little drink that day and then went back to celebrate at my house. We didn't go mad or anything but I'm still buzzing. It was a long time coming.
Has Noel listened to your new band?
I'm sure he's had a listen. I don't think he's got Beady Eye on his iPod and he probably doesn't listen to it daily, but he's a music lover and Different Gear, Still Speeding is a top-notch album.
Will you listen to his new solo album?
Definitely. I want to see if it's as good as the ones I sang on.
Do you feel pressure to escape the Oasis legacy?
No, I'll always be Oasis, it's in my veins. I'm never going to get away from it and I don't want to get away but I'm not doing it any more. You'd go mad if you had to explain yourself every time someone said, 'Are you from Oasis?' It's easier just to say, 'Yeah, that's me.' I like the same music now that I liked then. I've no reason to escape from it because I'm very proud of it.
Why did you start a fashion label?
I just like clothes, I always have. I wouldn't call myself a fashion designer, though. When I first saw our shop in Carnaby Street I thought, 'This is f***ing cool, this will do.' There's a lot of history there, it's where The Stones and The Who bought their clothes.
OK, but how much do you actually do?
I have my little take on it every now and again but there's a big team around me. I put my ideas across and then they're... expanded.
Who has the final say on an item of clothing?
I try it on and if it makes me feel good and gives me a kick then it goes in and if it doesn't, it goes in the bin. I go through everything with a fine-tooth comb.
Who would you choose as a brand ambassador?
There's no one better than me. I wouldn't mind getting a bit of Pretty Green on the Queen, though. She's still got a spring in her step.
Why the name Pretty Green?
It's an old Jam song. I wouldn't have called it Liam Gallagher. We tried that in the 1990s with a shoe collection but it's just f***ing stupid.
Do the other members of Beady Eye wear it?
There's no gun to their head forcing them to, but they seem to like it, which is good.

Liam Gallagher is hoping to cast Johnny Depp in the Beatles movie he is making.
The former Oasis star is producing a film about the Fab Four’s company Apple Corps, based on Richard DiLello’s book The Longest Cocktail Party.
In an interview with Q magazine he said he would like Pirates Of The Caribbean star Depp to take a leading role.
Gallagher, who fronts new band Beady Eye, wants the US actor to play Derek Taylor, the Beatles’ long-time publicist.
Depp became friendly with the Gallaghers during the late 1990s, when he was dating model Kate Moss. He contributed to Oasis recording sessions, playing a slide guitar solo on the track Fade In-Out.
Gallagher, 38, told the July edition of Q, out on Wednesday: “Derek Taylor was a dude. He’s up there with Lennon.
“The film script is done. It’s gonna blow people’s minds, man. I’m just waiting to find out when we choose the actors.
“I want Johnny Depp to play Derek Taylor. It’s got Johnny Depp written all over it, man.”
DiLello’s book is an insider’s guide to Apple, examining the company and the band’s demise.

Andy Bell
Beady Eye
Part two of an interview with Andy Bell from Gibson.
When Beady Eye formed in 2009, the press and fans alike wondered if the former Oasis band members could make a go of it without their leader, Noel Gallagher. But the foursome—composed of frontman Liam Gallagher, guitarists Andy Bell and Gem Archer, and drummer Chris Sharrock—quickly proved the naysayers wrong with a killer debut album, Different Gear, Still Speeding. The group have spent the better part of 2011 touring the world and proving without a doubt that, even without Noel, they’re still rock ‘n’ roll stars.
For Andy Bell, the band has given him the opportunity to return to his original instrument of guitar after a decade playing bass with Oasis. Bell sat down at the Gibson NYC Showroom to talk about his years in Oasis, plans for Beady Eye’s next album and his mystical 13-year-old mentor.

Andy Bell Interview
Part two of an interview with Andy Bell from Gibson.
When Beady Eye formed in 2009, the press and fans alike wondered if the former Oasis band members could make a go of it without their leader, Noel Gallagher. But the foursome—composed of frontman Liam Gallagher, guitarists Andy Bell and Gem Archer, and drummer Chris Sharrock—quickly proved the naysayers wrong with a killer debut album, Different Gear, Still Speeding. The group have spent the better part of 2011 touring the world and proving without a doubt that, even without Noel, they’re still rock ‘n’ roll stars.

Oasis
Spacehog
Steve White
The Black Crowes
Below are two videos from May 21st 2001, when Noel Gallagher was interviewed in Toronto, Canada for 'Much Music'.
The band were in North America for 'The Tour of Brotherly Love' featuring Oasis, The Black Crowes, and Spacehog. The three rock bands featured pairs of brothers: Noel and Liam Gallagher, Chris and Rich Robinson, Royston and Antony Langdon. The tour's title is a nod to the fact that all three pairs of brothers have been known to fight, sometimes physically, sometimes even publicly.
Originally scheduled for 21 dates across the United States and Canada, the three bands performed to capacity crowds in medium-sized arenas and concert halls, including a three-night stand at Radio City Music Hall in New York.
Noel Gallagher and Gem Archer of Oasis and the Langdon brothers of Spacehog joined The Black Crowes on stage at the end of most shows on the tour, performing covers of songs by Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, David Bowie, Pink Floyd and The Rolling Stones. Oasis drummer Alan White missed the tour with a thumb injury and was replaced by older brother Steve White.
Also broadcast on this day was 'MTV's Celebrity Deathmatch', click here to watch the fight.

So what do you think your album has brought to the UK chart which may have been lacking before?
I think my album is bringing the rock and roll thing back to UK music. Like Oasis - I mean, I'm not comparing myself to them - but I'm bringing that kind of music back into 2011. It's not an X-Factor type of thing; it's solo and quite ballsy. I suppose it's got swagger, but I don't mean that in an arrogant way. It's good to still be rewarded for making that kind of honest music.
You're a big Oasis fan and are friendly with Liam and Noel. What did it mean to you to support Beady Eye on tour?
It meant so much that they asked me. I love Liam, so to be at Beady Eye's first gigs was exciting and one of the best tours I've done. Sometimes on support you feel a bit like there's no point if people didn't come to see you specifically, but with the Beady Eye tour it was perfect. We gained a lot, and people were getting there early just to see us. Travelling with my band is great too as I've known them all for a long time.

Noel Gallagher
Noel Gallagher wishes he was still signed to Creation records.
The 43-year-old musician was signed to the iconic indie label with his band Oasis - who went on to become one of the UK's biggest bands - and is upset at the label's demise in 2000 because he thinks modern record companies offer a very different environment.
He said: "People now invest in the product and music isn't about that. I think if you asked any single band now, we'd all love to be back on Creation, not because we don't get artistic control, anywhere else, but it was a great atmosphere to make music and talk about what was possible."
He also lamented the fact most of the people who used to work at the label, founded by notorious industry figure Alan McGee, don't enjoy the jobs they have subsequently gone on to have.
Noel added: "I bump into some of the girls [who use to work there] now and again, they're all doing the same thing but for record labels they don't like for bands they don't believe in. They've all got jobs now."
