Noel Gallagher's Tales From The Middle Of Nowhere (Vol.2) Part Forty Seven

From Noel Gallagher's 'Tales From The Middle Of Nowhere' tour diary.

Yes comrades . . . where were we? Milwaukee? Yes, Milwaukee!!! Not much going on there let me tell you . . . . There was a statue of the Fonz across the road from the gig, That's just about the most exciting thing I can remember. Some of the lads on my crew spent the day posing for photo's with him . . . it . . . whatever. You know what I mean. Looking at some of the pictures later it was hard to tell who was the actual Fonz!! But why is there a statue of the Fonz in Milwaukee you ask . . . well . . . the series "Happy Days" was set in Milwaukee, see?

Played in a beauty of a theatre. Great show, great crowd. Think I've started to notice a few people following the tour now . . . like what they do back home . . . which is nice. Thanks.

So . . . Indianapolis? Spent the day watching Top Gear on BBC America . . . I fucking love Top Gear.

I don't know why, the gig was more like a town meeting in a village hall. I enjoyed it though. I don't know why someone shouted out REALLY FUCKING LOUDLY during Supersonic, "WHERE'S BONEHEAD?" I mean . . . what does that even mean?

Which brings me to yesterday . . . a day off in Atlanta, Georgia. The home of CNN and Coca-Cola. Had a mooch round a couple of shopping malls. Just killing time. Nice weather, lovely people.

Looking forward to this gig tonight. I recognised the theatre. Not sure what it's called but I remember it being the scene of one of the best ever Oasis gigs. Not sure what era. That Swedish band The Soundtrack Of Our Lives were playing with us and we were both on fire that night!!! We fucking crushed it big time.

Out of here early doors tomorrow. Flying to Mexico!!

Cannot fucking wait for that shit!!

ONWARDS.

From Noel Gallagher's 'Tales From The Middle Of Nowhere' tour diary.

Yes . . . well . . . Detroit then? A lively bunch. Great show. Nearly up to speed now. Close to 100%. Ben our newest member was getting the shout out from the crowd. Funny.

Overnighted it to Chicago. No drama. It is fucking cold though. It's always freezing here.

The gig itself here in the windy city was maybe the best so far. My voice is not at it's best though. My cold is playing havoc with it. A bit frustrating but what can you do?

Had a day off here yesterday. Bought myself a new guitar!! Hadn't bought one in a couple of years. A beauty it is too. A blonde Gibson 345 . . . 1972 . . . quite rare.

Not much else going on at the moment. Driving to Milwaukee today. Got a show there tonight.

And that comrades, is about all I've got for you.

ONWARDS.

From Noel Gallagher's 'Tales From The Middle Of Nowhere' tour diary.

Yes..well now then the gig in DC was OK. We ain't played for a couple of weeks so it always takes 3 or 4 gigs to get back into the groove so to speak. Our usual keyboard player (can't remember his name now) has stayed back home to help his wife have a kid, so his roadie has valiantly stepped into the breach to cover for him . . . . A bit of pain in the arse but we shall soldier on as best we can. Got a bit of a cold and all . . . with all that in mind the gig wasn't too bad. It was a good laugh anyway. Great crowd.

Bussed it overnight to the cultural centre of the middle of fucking nowhere, Columbus, Ohio. There is quite literally NOTHING going on here. Nothing to see. nothing to do. Had a gig here last night. Still not quite at full power but it was another fun night. Great crowd. They was chanting the stand-in keyboard players name by the end of the night . . . very funny (his name's Ben by the way).

Got a dirty little hangover today. Not nice, feel like a little lump of shit in fact but get on this . . . of all the people in all the world, have a guess who checked in to this hotel this morning? Go on have a guess . . . you'll never guess.................... only blimmin' Kasabian!!! What are the odds on that? Unbelievable!

Before I let you go I must tell you this story that has literally JUST happened to me. So . . . I'm just stood at some traffic lights waiting to cross the street when some guy slopes up to me . . .

"Hey man I don't mean to disrespect you”, (now that usually means you're about to be disrespected) “but you do realize you got a little 80's thing going on with your hair there?"

I was speechless.

"What do you call that style you got?"

I was without speech.

"You look like that . . . who was that muh-fucker pro-doocer who shot that bitch in the face?"

Erm..Phil Spector?

"Phil Spector! You look like Phil Spector!!"

Erm..thanks..(I don't know why I said thanks)

"Say . . . do you believe in Jesus?"

Seriously that just happened to me!!!!

I fucking love America.

ONWARDS.

GD.

Noel Gallagher Working And Performing At His Own Pace

No comments










Noel Gallagher quit Oasis in 2009, and he probably did so knowing that whatever he did next would be compared with everything he had left behind. However, he has also found that going solo has its pleasures as well as its pains.

"The main thing is that I can work at my own pace," he said during a phone interview the weekend before he and his band, the High Flying Birds, were set to play Milwaukee on Tuesday night. "I'm not beholden to anybody's timetable."

Gallagher didn't refer directly to his younger brother, Liam, or the remains of Oasis, who re-formed under the name Beady Eye, but the contentiousness between the siblings was never a secret. And with the preponderance of tabloid reporting in his native England, Noel was certainly aware that the press shifted its focus from any music Oasis made to the fraternal disputes that roiled the band.

"You're at the mercy of what people write," he said. "I don't really take any of it seriously when they're talking about your haircut or who you happen to be sleeping with. I know it's really about the music because I get up onstage every night and I do it."

He also did it in the studio with "Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds," the debut album that came out in October. He grabbed a couple of songs he'd written for Oasis that the band "had never got around to finishing" and wrote eight more.

"I took out my notebook and said, 'Let's try that, and if it doesn't work, we'll try another one,' " he said of the process. "I liked the freedom to play as many instruments as I like, to work with as many session musicians as I like. I could do whatever I wanted to do."

Mostly, Gallagher wanted to keep creating the classically minded, tastefully crafted rock songs with which he not only dominated the early Oasis albums, like 1994's hugely popular "Definitely Maybe," but also influenced one muscular wing of the 1990s Britpop quasi-movement.

"I tried to make this record as intimate and as human as possible, and the lyrics as direct as possible," he said. "They're vague enough for you to be able to think those songs are about you, but they're personal enough for me to know who all the protagonists are."

Gallagher's main concern in choosing sidekicks to help him tell the stories was simply that he knew them.

"These are just my friends," he said of his musicians. "I wasn't really picking these guys for any particular statement, and it was a new venture, so I thought I should surround myself with as many friendly faces as I could in case I (messed) it up."

Apparently satisfied that he didn't mess up, Gallagher will be on tour until November, and after that he might finish mixing his second solo album, a collaboration with psychedelic collective Amorphous Androgynous that he said was "a bit of a mess" at the moment.

On the other hand, he might just take a break.

"I can go straight back into the studio, or I can take three years off," he said. "The road lies open, so it's all good, but I'm not going to chase it. I'm just going to go wherever it takes me."

Noel Gallagher Features On Recreated Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band Album Sleeve

2 comments












British artist Sir Peter Blake has recreated the iconic album sleeve for The Beatles' Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band on his 80th birthday.

"It's a cross I bear, it's an albatross I have to deal with," he says.

It is a fairly stark, somewhat surprising admission from Sir Peter Blake, sleeve designer of The Beatles' 1967 album Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.























"What vaguely depresses me still is that I'm known pretty much as 'Peter Blake - who did the cover of Sgt Pepper' when I've done so much else," he says.

"Every so often I manage to forget it but it comes back all the time."

What makes the revelation even more surprising is that Sir Peter has set aside any misgivings he has about his most famous work on the sleeve of arguably the Fab Four's greatest album, to create a new poster reimagining the image to mark both his 80th birthday and designer Wayne Hemingway's Vintage Festival.

Gone are cutouts of actress Marilyn Monroe, comedians Lenny Bruce and WC Fields to be replaced by Amy Winehouse, Kate Moss, artists Tracey Emin and Damien Hirst and musicians Eric Clapton and Noel Gallagher.

Sadly, gone too are The Beatles themselves.

"I don't own the copyright," he explains. "Part of everything that went wrong at the time was that my agent signed away any kind of royalties and the copyright so we had to ask Apple Corps - The Beatles' management - for permission and they didn't want it to be associated with advertising."

Apple Corps have yet to comment on Sir Peter's claims.

Instead, Sir Peter has used what he called "family, friends and icons" on the latest poster. Though he has craftily managed to get round the Beatle-ban by including not one but three McCartneys.

Longtime friend Sir Paul is in there, alongside designer daughter Stella and her sister, photographer Mary.

Alongside the McCartneys are an array of faces - from food, represented by restaurateurs Chris Corbin and Jeremy King and chefs Delia Smith and Rick Stein, to Kate Moss and Paul Smith from fashion and Noel Gallagher, John Peel and Paul Weller for music.

Late singer Amy Winehouse also gets a nod, Sir Peter fondly recalls his first memorable meeting with her.

"It was after a South Bank Show lunch at the Savoy and we went into the American Bar after the lunch," he says.

"We were thrown out because Jamie Cullum was playing the piano, Amy was singing and we were singing along around the piano and we got chucked out. I really liked her very much and admired her and was very sad at what happened.

"It was memorable to be staggering out with Jamie and Amy," he adds.

From the art world, sculptor Grayson Perry makes an appearance in full drag and contemporaries Emin and Hirst are present.

Sir Peter is quick to defend Hirst from recent criticism, notably by the critic Julian Spalding who questioned the artist's credentials.

"I admire Damien enormously, I think he added a great deal to the excitement of the art world and I think that he is a very interesting artist," he says.

"I think the mistake people make is that they think it's about him making money and it's not that. Money and wealth are often his subject and I think people mistake that for greed which again it isn't.

"I honestly feel that if he suddenly didn't have any money, he'd be perfectly happy to stay in Devon and paint."

Musician Noel Gallagher, who worked with Sir Peter on the Oasis greatest hits album, said he was "very chuffed" to be included in the new work.

"I was lucky enough to go down to his studio," he told the BBC. "We were fans and all the props were still there from the Sgt Pepper photo shoot".

Gallagher added that he had his photo taken with a waxwork of boxer Sonny Liston and "was as starstruck meeting the doll in the jumper that said, 'Welcome the Rolling Stones', as I was when I met Ringo."

"If, for me, The Beatles and the Who and The Kinks and the Stones were the sound of the 60s then Sir Peter's work is the visual representation of that.

"When I look at his pop art stuff, I hear the Beatles. He's as important as the music."

The Vintage Festival which brings together fashion, music and art from the 1920s to the 80s is being held at the Boughton Estate in Northamptonshire on 13-15 July.

Noel Gallagher: Flying High After Oasis

No comments










When the song "Wonderwall" hit the airwaves in 1995, Oasis was arguably the biggest rock band in the world. At the heart of the group were two combustible figures: Noel Gallagher, the main songwriter, and his brother Liam, the main singer. With their fiery tempers and frequent public outbursts, the two were on the covers of the tabloids as often as the top of the charts.

Oasis burned out quite suddenly a few years ago, with a now-famous meltdown backstage before a show in Paris.

"We were backstage waiting to go onstage to 30,000 people in Paris," Noel Gallagher tells NPR's Guy Raz. "The tour manager came in and said, 'Five minutes!' We broke up within that five minutes. I'm not proud of that, but all things come to an end."

Liam Gallagher and the other members of Oasis have kept the band going under a new name, Beady Eye. Noel, however, has stepped out as a solo artist. His first record under the name Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds was released late last year.

"When you're in a band and there's five of you, you have to accommodate five people in every song," Gallagher says. "It was great to free up everything. The simple songs became more simple, and the more elaborate ones became more elaborate.

"I had a very clear idea that I wanted it to sound cinematic, but at the same time intimate and direct," he adds. "When I listen back, I wanted every verse to be like a scene in a film. I've had the best time making this record."

Noel Gallagher: 'Nothing I Do Will Ever Be As Big As Oasis'

No comments












Noel Gallagher has admitted that he will never reach the heights that he reached with Oasis as a solo artist.

In a documentary titled Mark Lawson Talks To Noel Gallagher which was aired last night (March 30) on BBC 4, the High Flying Birds man said that nobody could be as big as his former band.

He said: "Nothing anybody does can be as big as Oasis. Not Coldplay, not Kasabian, not the Arctic Monkeys, in this country not U2, not any of them, its as simple as that."

Gallagher added: "It's not only me that lives up to that legacy, everyone else has too. We were the last. We were the greatest. The end".

He added: "I've had this reputation since the band have split up for being called a control freak. And I was. I controlled them all the way to Wembley and Knebworth and all the way to the top of the charts. So you're welcome."

In the documentary, he also spoke about his childhood, his relationship with his brother Liam and the Britpop war with Blur.

Meanwhile, Gallagher is set to release a new EP next month, which is titled 'Songs From The Great White North'. The EP, which contains four tracks in total, will be released on 12' vinyl to celebrate this year's Record Store Day, which happens on April 21.

It is made up of his recent B-sides and includes his recent collaboration with Amorphous Androgynous 'Shoot A Hole Into The Sun' as well as previous offerings 'The Good Rebel', 'Let The Lord Shine A Light On Me' and 'I'd Pick You Everytime'.

Noel Gallagher's Tales From The Middle Of Nowhere (Vol.2) Part Forty Four

No comments












From Noel Gallagher's 'Tales From The Middle Of Nowhere' tour diary.

Yes...well, hello.

Enjoyed that time off. Nice and easy. Beautiful weather...is there anywhere nicer than London in the spring...? (well, yes...Paris and Rome to name but 2 places...and New York and Los Angeles, but apart from those, NO!! There isn't).

Didn't get up to much...did an interview with Sir David Frost (which was nice).

Other than that not a great deal going on.

Flew into Washington DC last night. Those cats at immigration was in a bad mood!! One of them asked me did I leave Oasis "cuz of the money"?

Fuck knows what that was supposed to have meant so I just said "erm...I dunno?" I sounded like my 4yr old son.

Lovely day today. The sun is shining. Feels like spring has sprung over here too. Nice.

I wonder if Obama and Michelle are in? Might go and give them a knock.

ONWARDS.

Noel Gallagher On Interviewing Mario Balotelli, Oasis And Beady Eye And More

No comments












The BBC recently gave ex-Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher, a lifelong fan of English Premier League whipping boys-turned-superpowers Manchester City, a chance to interview the club’s controversial forward Mario Balotelli. A Tyson-esque loose cannon with talent to match his eccentricity, Balotelli seems like the perfect foil for Gallagher, half of one of the most volatile singer-songwriter partnership/sibling rivalries in rock.

“I don't think I'll take up a career in interviewing. I'd much rather be answering the questions,” Gallagher said. “Asking questions is not my forte. Giving stupid answers is my forte.”

When I called him in Hamburg to preview his tour stop this Thursday at LC Pavilion, give answers he did — some of them stupid, some of them insightful, most of them accented by F-bombs and the occasional “D’you know what I mean?” Over the course of 30 minutes, we covered everything from his take on brother Liam's new band Beady Eye to American sports and politics to Gallagher's home life as a father of three.
