Hatton 'Rolls With It' On Oasis' Tour Of Mexico Alongside The Gallaghers

There was the long friendship with Bernard Manning, the golfing days with Michael Owen, the nights on the booze with Wayne Rooney and now, for Ricky Hatton, there is the Oasis tour in Mexico.

Tom Jones has gently crooned the Manchester fighter into the ring, David Beckham always buys a ticket and on Saturday night the Gallagher brothers from Oasis, Liam and Noel, were by Hatton's side before and after his latest victory.

Now Hatton, who still drinks in a local pub near his home in Manchester and eats at his mother's house many nights each week, is set to join Oasis on stage for all three of their gigs in Mexico beginning on Wednesday in Mexico City. Hatton has been dubbed the "White Mexican" because of his fighting style and love of body shots and is likely to receive a warm reception in the boxing-mad nation.

Hatton and the Gallagher boys share a love of Manchester City and many years ago Hatton was part of the audience when Oasis performed at Maine Road. The respect between the boxer and the band is mutual but it is thought that Hatton forgot to let his girlfriend, Jennifer Dooley, know about the road trip.

The three working-class heroes from Manchester will fly to Mexico City today in preparation for the first of three gigs that end on Saturday in Monterrey.

Hatton is then expected back in Manchester for his traditional "shit" shirt party, which is always followed by a Caribbean cruise with an increasingly large contingent of his family.

"Richard has not changed and he never will change," insisted his mother, Carol. "He's had Gordon Ramsay at his house cooking a meal and the next night he's with me having steak pie. That is just the way he is – his fans will never let him get too serious."

Last year before Hatton knocked out Mexican idol Jose Luis Castillo it was the turn of Rooney to carry one of Hatton's belts into the ring and he was, according to the boxer, shaking as they paused before entering the arena. "I told him to behave and that it was me doing the fighting and that he had nothing to worry about," said Hatton.

Ricky Hatton Wins, The Gallagher's Carry His Belts Into The Ring

Noel and Liam Gallagher of Oasis bring out boxer Ricky Hatton of England's belts before taking on Paulie Malignaggi during their light-welterweight fight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada in the early hours of this morning.

More pictures from the fight can be found here.

Ricky Hatton continued his unbeaten run at light-welterweight by outclassing Paulie Malignaggi with an 11th-round stoppage at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.

Hatton, breaking from his trademark brawling style in his first fight under new trainer Floyd Mayweather Sr, looked a different class against the slick but light-punching Malignaggi.

The victory took Hatton's professional record to 45-1 (32 KOs) in the same ring he had suffered his only defeat almost a year earlier, a 10th round stoppage by Floyd Mayweather Jr at welterweight.

And it also sets up a possible superfight with the winner of the massive December 6 showdown between Oscar De La Hoya and Manny Pacquiao.

Malignaggi's trainer Buddy McGirt had climbed onto the ring apron and referee Bayless called a halt to proceedings, much to the American's annoyance as the Hatton fans chanted "easy, easy" in celebration of their man.

Oasis Bad Boy A Mellow Soul

He's had both of the Gallagher brothers in his taxi, the London cab driver tells me. The nice one and the naughty one.

He dropped off the nice one at his (nice one's) house at the height of the band's fame. Crowds were waiting outside.

"Then another time I picked up the naughty one, when he was still with his missus, Patsy Kensit," the cabbie says. "She was pregnant. I didn't really want him in my cab in case he started something, but he was with her, so it was all right."

Ten minutes later I find myself alone in a room with the naughty one, though this time Liam Gallagher, 36, is being exceptionally nice.

We're at the Roundhouse, the north London venue where Oasis is to take the stage as the closing act of the week-long BBC Electric Proms series. The gig sold out in 42 seconds.

Liam, wearing a black leather jacket and scarf, is in a chilled out mood.

He will be doing a special show with a 50-piece choir, but it's all in a day's work for the younger Gallagher. He would be at home, which is just around the corner, but his missus, All Saints singer Nicole Appleton, and her mates are "getting dolled up".

In 15 years in Oasis, Liam has earned a reputation as an enfant terrible, with antics including allegedly head-butting an Australian fan and being banned from airline Cathay Pacific.

Now, though, he's settled down with Nicole -- whom he married this year after eight years together -- and spends time with his three children. He gets up at 6am, goes for a run, likes to eat out early and is likely to be in bed by 10 or 11. He couldn't be happier.

He admits he's mellowed.

"Not too much, though," he says quickly.

"You have to be when you get older and you have kids; it's your duty, innit? You can't go out every night drinking. I can't handle it any more -- the hangovers."

Noel and Liam Gallagher were the unlikely princes of British pop culture. Growing up in a rough area of Manchester with a devoted mother and unkind father, they had a fearless ambition.

They sang about living forever, not dying young and their music -- along with that of arch rivals, educated southerners Blur -- is associated with Britain's optimistic renaissance. They were the anti-grunge.

Staying true to rock 'n' roll, Oasis's latest album, Dig Out Your Soul, its seventh British No.1 recorded in the famous Abbey Rodd studios, recreates the magic.

In the foyer at the Roundhouse, where fans mill outside, photographs of Oasis's greatest moments line the walls, including two giant headshots, where the Gallagher brothers appear like Roman caesars, untouchable, godly.

A fan sums it up for me: "Their songs were about being from a working class background and being downtrodden and rising above that. And when you're a teenager you're always feeling downtrodden."

To Liam, music is as important as ever: "Yeah man, if not more important. This is my life. This is what I do. This is it. This is where I get my kicks from. This is what makes me feel untouchable."

On stage, Oasis is whipping up an electric mayhem as the crowd almost drowns out the 50-piece choir.

In the dress circle, the band's partners and celebrity friends move enthusiastically.

Suddenly, a spotlight singles out a certain celebrity and the band stops.

The crowd erupts into a frenzied football chant: "Who are ya? Who are ya?"

It's actor Daniel Craig, or as Noel points out: "Bond, James Bond."

Dig Out Your Soul contains three Liam-penned numbers, including the current single, I'm Outta Time.

A WISTFUL, romantic tune, it could have been written by the ghost of John Lennon and at the end of the song Lennon's voice can be heard in a quote recorded just before his death.

"I've always thought it would be nice to have someone speak on it and obviously John Lennon's the man. So we went through these tapes and that was the first one that pops out. Sometimes you get lucky. That was the magic in that. It just fitted straight away," Liam says.

Liam's love of Lennon is no secret. He even named his son after him.

"He's just the best. He's a f------ dude, isn't he? He's got a great voice. A funny personality. He didn't give a s---. He didn't take no s---. I'm not obsessed with him. I like his music and I like his voice."

At Abbey Road studios, Liam says he definitely felt the vibe.

"It's the best studio in the world. That's where we should make our music all the time. That's why our record sounds good. Obviously our producer's good and that, but you can hear Abbey Road in it. If you don't make a decent record at Abbey Road, you shouldn't be making music."

Liam doesn't think much of the current crop of enfant terribles dominating the tabloids. Instead of mixing a little drugs with their sex and rock 'n' roll, they have let drugs take over their lives.

"Pete Doherty and Amy Winehouse? They're f------ scumbags, aren't they? They need to have a wash. Apparently they're really talented. They're talented at being scruffy I know that. I don't care for them. They're grubby little bastards."

Liam's relationship with Noel has weathered many storms. More like colleagues than family, the brothers don't hang out socially. Liam prefers to be in bed by 10pm, while Noel's out with his celebrity mates.

"We were never that touchy-feely, cuddly brothers kind of thing anyway, so it's still the same sort of. We don't really speak that much," Liam says.

"We only speak when things need to be said. The thing is about our relationship, there's no bulls--- involved."

R ECENTLY in Toronto, Noel was attacked on stage by a fan. Liam was ready to get into the ring to protect his brother.

"Without a doubt. I think he'd do the same thing. I'd do it for any of them. Without a doubt. You have to look after your brothers, haven't you?" he says.

Liam now has two sons, close in age. What legacy would he like to pass on to his children?

"Just to be themselves, man. Nobody's perfect. You wouldn't want to be. Be yourself. It don't matter what people think of you. That's the only thing."

Those words sound familiar. The words are echoed in the first line of Supersonic, Oasis's first single released in 1994: "I need to be myself, I can't be no one else."

"It's not about everyone liking you. As long as you like yourself, then you'll be all right," Liam says.

Gallagher's Note Impressed, Mick

I told you yesterday how Simply Red frontman Mick Hucknall had slammed Oasis for making a monkey out of Mancunians.

The raging redhead accused the Gallaghers of turning the proud inhabitants of Manchester into walking, mad-fer-it clichés.

The singer even referred to the HarryEnfield sketch of Kathy Burke's character Perry walking with a “Liam gait” after a visit to the city.

So today, in a spirit of fairness, allow me to present axe-Lord Noel’s thoughts on Mick’s theory in an open letter to him.

Over to you then, Mick.

Oasis, Rolling Stones, Amy Winehouse Memorabilia To Go On Show

The British Music Experience will also feature items from David Bowie, Blur and Paul Weller

Amy Winehouse, The Rolling Stones and David Bowie have loaned memorabilia to a new exhibition set to open in London.

The British Music Experience, which will open at the 02 Arena in March 2009, will chart the history of British pop music and feature famous costumes and instruments, reports BBC News.

Artefacts on show will include Mick Jagger's Ossie Clark-designed '70s jumpsuit, the dress Amy Winehouse wore in the video for her 2007 single 'Tears Dry On Their Own' and the clown suit David Bowie wore in the promo for his 1980 UK chart-topper 'Ashes To Ashes', plus his classic Ziggy Stardust costume.

Oasis' Noel Gallagher's Union Jack guitar will be on show, along with guitars played by Blur, Paul Weller and T-Rex's Marc Bolan.

A range of artists, including Dizzee Rascal, have also been filmed in conversation with other musicians, to be screened as "fantasy dinner parties" at the exhibition.

"It will be like nothing seen before - an interactive and cutting edge exhibition which will bring the history of music and its influence on all of us to life. This is just the beginning of an exhibition that will constantly evolve as much as music does and will educate even the most avid music fans," curator Paul Lilley told BBC News.

Oasis Exhibition Opens In London

Snap Galleries is currently showing an exclusive exhibition of Oasis photographs by Michael Spencer Jones . Michael's images appear on the covers of Oasis’ first three studio albums: Definitely Maybe, What’s the Story Morning Glory? and Be Here Now and eleven of their early singles, from Supersonic through to All Around the World.

For the first time, Michael is bringing together and exhibiting photographs from every one of his Oasis albums and singles sleeve sessions, a new limited edition book, a lavish portfolio box set of 15 individual window mounted photographs, a new collage featuring over 100 different Oasis photographs, and if all that wasn’t enough, some other surprises as well.

The portfolio box is a really beautiful piece of work - a 21st century update on David Bailey’s 1965 Box of Pin-ups project, with a price as keen as mustard. It won’t stick at the launch price forever, but we have set it very much with the credit crunch in mind. Limited editions are available to purchase, with prices from £95 to £13,950.

The exhibition is currently running at our showroom in Covent Garden in London up until Christmas and will run in our Birmingham gallery at Fort Dunlop from Saturday 6 December 2008 until Saturday 28 February, 2009.

This Months Mogo Magazine Mojo Goes Behind The Scenes With Oasis

OASIS: “Bring it on, you little dicks! On the road and behind the scenes with the biggest band in the land, MOJO’s Pat Gilbert enters the inner sanctum of Oasis’s sold-out UK tour to discover the secret story at the heart of Dig Out Your Soul. “We’ve been to the dark side,” reveals a typically candid Noel Gallagher.

In the latest issue of MOJO magazine (on sale Tuesday) Oasis’s Gallagher brothers unveil the latest and possibly the strangest of their infamous spats.

Involving Liam’s sudden flit, in the middle of sessions for Dig Out Your Soul, to get married without warning, it would prove to have massive repercussions on the record they were making.

If nothing else, the contretemps illustrates that almost 15 years since Oasis began their triumphant march into British music history their fire burns as fiercely as ever. Band members have come and gone, decade-defining songs have been locked into the public consciousness, but that fractious relationship between Noel and Liam Gallagher remains the propellant force behind a seventh Number 1 album, a sold-out UK arena tour and the prospect of three sold-out nights at Wembley Stadium next summer.

MOJO magazine’s tour piece – for which writer Pat Gilbert was allowed unprecedented backstage access – is haunted by the after-effects of the September 7 attack on Noel Gallagher at Toronto’s V Festival which left the guitarist with three broken ribs and a reliance on powerful painkillers ("It's like walking on sand," he admits). But, as MOJO can exclusively reveal, the boat had already been rocked by a decision made earlier in the year.

At mixing sessions for Dig Out Your Soul in Los Angeles in February singer Liam Gallagher had yet to record a single vocal, and the atmosphere was edgy. Then, as Valentines Day loomed, the Oasis frontman split for London and a surprise wedding, splicing with partner Nicole Appleton after eight years and two children together. Yet he invited none of the band, and informed none of them of his plans.

“I was f**king furious about it,” Noel tells MOJO. “I don’t give a shit about the fact he didn’t invite me to the wedding; but when it affects our work it infuriates me.”

The impact was critical as two tracks slated for inclusion on the record – one described by Noel as “an epic Champagne-Supernova song with backwards Are You Experienced-type rhythms” – were left incomplete. Consequently, Dig Out Your Soul hit the shelves with reduced psychedelic potency, and two tracks – Get Off Your High Horse Lady and Ain’t Got Nothin’ – originally intended as B-sides.

As usual, Liam remains defiant. “It was private,” he tells MOJO. “Our Kid should get over it. I wouldn’t be upset, I wouldn’t want to go to his wedding anyway.”

With some observers concerned that Oasis had swopped inspirational mayhem for pipes and slippers, the palaver is strangely reassuring, and the revelation is unlikely to harm their revitalised career. Plus ça fookin’ change, say the experts, plus c’est la fookin’ même chose.

LIVE & DANGEROUS! To read our mammoth 13-page world exclusive Oasis tour report, be sure to pick up a copy of MOJO – on sale from Tuesday, November 25!

Liam Gallagher And Nic To Love Forever

Liam Gallagher and wife Nicole acted like a pair of loved-up teenagers as they frolicked in the back of a cab last night.

The married duo – who have been an item since 2000 – had just enjoyed a romantic meal out at Nobu when charitable Liam slipped a homeless Big Issue seller some spare change.

After hailing a black taxi, Liam and Nic burst into hysterics as they hugged and tickled each other playfully in the back.

Their excitable antics were similar to those performed by hyper kids on long journeys with mum and dad.

Still, the sight of a longterm celeb couple still giddy with happiness is a rare one these days.
