Andy Bell's DJ Set From London
Oasis bassist Andy Bell spun some tunes for an hour at the This Feeling clubnight on Friday night (September 29), prompting an attack of camera-phones around the DJ booth.
Bell wasn't amused by the scurry, and snubbed fan requests for pictures, while he span his Gallagher-approved set, which featured the likes of The Chemical Brothers and Simian Mobile Disco.
He'd obviously cheered up later though, as he was spotted drinking champers with a few wags.

Liam Gallagher Has Advice For Arctic Monkeys
Liam Gallagher has given Arctic Monkeys some advice during a recent interview with Mojo.
The charismatic Oasis front man said, "I look at bands now, Arctic Monkeys, and they're uncomfortable, and I think, 'Where's your head at, man?'. I love 'em, but it's just like, 'en-fucking-joy it.' They're embarrassed by fame? Yeah, it's embarrassing being fam... well, it's not embarrassing being in a rock'n'roll band."
He also added, "If you're embarrassed about your dream then God fucking help you. I'd be more embarrassed to call myself a poet. Fucking right."
Speaking of his own success with Oasis, Liam Gallagher also said: "Everything just felt right. Everything that we'd worked for. Nothing felt weird - it felt deserved, and I didn't feel uncomfortable with any of it. I fucking loved it. And I think you were able to tell I fucking loved it."

Noel's 10-year Feud All A Blur
It was one of the most famous feuds in music history - but Oasis have finally called a truce with Blur.
Anomosity between both has endured since their Battle-of-Britpop days more than a decade ago - but Oasis wildmen Liam and Noel Gallagher say the war of words is all a blur now and have voiced their admiration for rival Damon Albarn.
Noel told NME: "I've got a lot of respect for him. This never comes across in interviews but I really do mean it.
Because I'm indifferent to Damon, he thinks that I think he's an idiot. "Our Liam will talk to him. I won't because he's just another singer in a band to me."
Liam told Mojo magazine: "I don't mind Blur. I'm over it. It was a laugh, that's what you do when you're young."

Noel Gallagher's Naughty Pretty Thing
Noel Gallagher has ripped off a song by The Pretty Things for the new Oasis album.
The Oasis guitarist is planning to include an unapproved version of The Pretty Things track 'Baron Saturday' on the band's new album and is worried he may be sued by the band's lawyers
Noel confessed: "I hadn't heard this at all until about three months ago and a friend of mine, who is in Kasabian, sent me a CD of some stuff he was listening to and it completely bent my head.
"I spent the next three months trying to rip it off for when the next Oasis record comes out.
"I shouldn't really be saying that because The Pretty Things' lawyers will be listening to this now, won't they! But there you go."

Liam Gallagher: The Oasis vs Blur Fued Is Over
Singer says he now 'buzzes off' Damon Albarn
Liam Gallagher has called an end to his feud with Britpop rivals Blur.
His band Oasis and the London group were arch rivals in the 1990s, with it all coming to a head when both bands released a single on the same day in 1995 - Blur's 'Country House' beat Oasis' 'Roll With it' following a massive war of words between the two bands.
Now the Oasis frontman says he's not only over the rivalry, but actually likes Blur frontman Damon Albarn.
"I don't mind Blur," Gallagher told Mojo. "I'm over it [the rivalry]. It was a laugh man, that's what you do when you're young."
He added: "When I see Damon Albarn, I buzz off him. If I was still caught up in it now I'd be a right wanker."
The singer's comments follow those of guitarist Noel Gallagher, who told NME.COM earlier this year that he respects his rivals as musicians.
"You know Damon, bless him, I've got a lot of respect for him. This never comes across in interviews, but I really do mean it," Noel said. "Because I'm indifferent to Damon, he thinks that I think he's a cunt. Our Liam will talk to him. I won't because he's just another singer in a band to me, but I don't think he's a cunt. Good luck to him."
Blur, meanwhile, are set to consider reuniting for a new record next week. Bassist Alex James has said all four members will have lunch together to discuss working again following guitarist Graham Coxon's departure from the band in 2002.

Liam Gallagher: I Sounded Like Tweetie
Liam Gallagher always said Oasis were the biggest and best band in the world.
But now the gobby frontman has confessed most of their early material makes him cringe — because he says he sounds like Tweetie Pie.
He said: “I hate my voice on all them records. I sound like f****** Tweetie Bird.
“I mean, they were good at the time, it’s the best I could do, but I prefer it the way it is now.
“When I hear Slide Away, I think, ‘That’s a vocal’. Supersonic, that’s all right.
But certain songs, Live Forever, some of the high bits I just think (head in hands), ‘Aw, f*** that’. I was young. I hate that vocal on Whatever. I despise it. It’s s***.”
So, I got my graphics whizzes to do Tweetie up with a Liam haircut.
Even so, I reckon he’s being tough on himself. The Manc legend turned 35 last week and has clearly mellowed, admitting, “I'm not too shy to give love, man.”
The way he talks about sons Lennon and Gene — by his ex Patsy Kensit and his missus Nicole Appleton — is a far cry from his Britpop hell-raising days
Of six-year-old Gene, he said: “His hair is like, golden blonde. My kid’s got the best haircut in the world, man. I do it every day. The comb is your friend! I think I’m a top dad. Haven’t got a nanny, none of that.”
Describing a typical day in the life of Liam, he said: “Get up, tea, relax and watch Jeremy Kyle give it everyone. I love Jeremy Kyle, he’s a geezer.
“One day he's gonna lose it and proper have it with someone (mimes headlock) and I'm mad for that on live TV.
“Followed by Loose Women. The Loose Women are having it, man.”
The reformed rocker also opened up about his fears about the day Oasis split. He said: “I’d go insane, wouldn’t I? ’Cos it’s your life.”
“I'm dreading the day if that's the way it's gonna be. But who knows what it's gonna be?
“Just concentrate on one year at a time. One day at a time.”
Music certainly wouldn’t be the same without him.

First Listen Lord Don't Slow Me Down
From the whimsical acoustic version Noel plays on the tour bus in the film 'Lord Don't Slow Me Down' has grown into a full-blooded, hard-living, rock 'n' roll stomper.
Its pounding drums and bluesy guitars provide yet more evidence of how Oasis are evolving - no, really this time!

The Coral Speak About There Friendship With Oasis
The Coral are a peculiar band. Not as people – a nicer bunch of lads you couldn’t wish to meet – but if they wanted to be, they could be some of the most recognisable faces in music.
Instead, they’re rather anonymous, much preferring to let their excellent music – on CD, such as their new album Roots And Echoes, and live (they go on tour this autumn) – do the talking.
As the story goes, lead singer James Skelly was once sitting in the Kop at Anfield, home of his beloved Liverpool FC, and overheard the lad sitting next to him telling a friend how much he liked the band, but failed to notice the singer sitting inches away.
The album was recorded at Wheeler End studio, owned by one Noel Gallagher. Their invitation to work at the studio came when the band were partying with Oasis at their hotel in Scotland.
“I nipped out onto the balcony to have a ciggie,” Ian recalls. “Liam was out there too, and he said we should go and do some tunes at Wheeler End as they weren’t using it at the time. ”
“It’s a great studio. There’s loads of vintage gear in there,” James says. “I’d definitely work there again.”
Ian recounts how they repaid the Oasis main man for letting them use the studio: “We bought this tiny model of a Gibson Flying V and all signed it. I swear it wasn’t meant to seem as cheeky as it looked!”
Even though they can count Noel as a friend rather than an idol these days, they can’t help nervously making fools of themselves when he’s around. “I behave like an idiot, and say such stupid things,” cringes keyboard-player Nick. “He’s a cool guy though, Noel. He’s really mellow, and dead down to earth.”
