Noel Gallagher has spoken to Record Collector about what it was like setting his gear up on the old Maine Road turf for the High Flying Birds 'Council Skies' album cover.
He said "I wanted the artwork to be Manchester based, and Maine Road was obviously key to Oasis, as well as me being a City fan. I hadn't been to Maine Road since it was knocked down. When I drove up there, it all fell into place, as it's been turned into a council housing. I had to get permission from (Manchester Mayor) Andy Burnham for the shoot".
He added "When we were setting up the drumkit, the residents were going: You'd better not be making any f*cking noise!" Then I turn round, and it was : "No way! Are you doing a gig here today? "Sorry just a photoshoot..."
