"Shakermaker" is a song by British rock group Oasis, written by their lead guitarist Noel Gallagher. First appearing as a single, released on the 13th June 1994, which peaked at number 11 in the UK charts, it was later released on Oasis' groundbreaking debut album Definitely Maybe. It was also the first song performed by the band on the UK's world famous music program, Top Of The Pops.
Gallagher admits the lyrics are taken from the world around him, for example, a Shaker Maker was a popular toy in the 1970s, the character of "Mr Soft" was taken from a Trebour Soft Mints commercial, which featured Cockney Rebel's song "Mr Soft", "Mr. Clean" is a song by The Jam, one of Gallagher's favourite bands, "Mr Benn" is a British children's cartoon and the entire last verse - Mr Sifter sold me songs/When I was just 16/Now he stops at traffic lights/But only when they're green - was written in a taxi on the way to the recording studio to record the song. Apparently, Liam Gallagher was pestering Noel to finish the song. At this point, the taxi stopped at the traffic lights outside 'Sifter's"' (a record shop in Burnage, Manchester). Noel penned the lyric and it became part of the song. Noel used to frequent the store to buy old records before Oasis started releasing albums and Mr Sifter refers to the owner of the record store.

Beady Eye

Liam Gallagher made his first appearance at the Isle Of Wight Festival tonight (June 12), playing with Beady Eye on the Main Stage of the bash before headliners Kasabian.
Oasis never played at the event but tonight the singer certainly took his chance to make an impression – choosing to wear a huge coat designed in the colours of the Union Jack flag, surely one of the most colourful images of the weekend so far.
The rain was tipping down for the band's show – as it had been all day – with Liam drily acknowledging the sogginess of the fans. He introduced 'Kill For A Dream' as 'Kill For A Suntan' and reassured the crowd that they "still look pretty good, mate," despite their dampness.
His coat wasn't the only fashion statement he made during the set. He dedicated 'Man Of Misery' to "all you Pretty Greens" – a reference to his fashion label, Pretty Green.
As well as playing songs from their debut album 'Different Gear, Still Speeding', Beady Eye ended the set with their usual set-closer, their cover of World Of Twist's 'Sons Of The Stage'.
Beady Eye played:
'Four Letter Word'
'Beatles And Stones'
'Millionaire'
'The Roller'
'Bring The Light'
'Standing On The Edge Of The Noise'
'Kill For A Dream'
'Three Ring Circus'
'The Beat Goes On'

Liam Gallagher

Brother played an afternoon set to a soggy Isle Of Wight Festival crowd on the final day of the 2011 event today (June 12). They also found time to talk about uncomplimentary comments made by Liam Gallagher about them.
Despite their Britpop influences the band said that they are not fans of Liam's new outfit Beady Eye, who'll be playing later this evening on the Main Stage.
"Liam Gallagher said a few unfavourable things about me in particular and our band but I’ll be the bigger man, I won't say anything back," said frontman Lee Newell. "But what I will say is at least he's still playing music and if I was in his position, I'd do the same thing – but our album would be good. Enjoy the rain mate."

You Me At Six

Noel Gallagher’s people gave Best British Band winners You Me At Six a major ticking-off for Tweeting about the star’s new album.
Singer Josh Franceschi, 20, who has been recording in the same studio as Noel, told me: “We got in a lot of trouble. It sounded amazing – of course it did, it was Noel Gallagher.
“That’s the only reason I commented as I’m a massive Oasis fan and I couldn’t believe we were next door.”
He added the band hooked up with Olly, 20, from Bring Me The Horizon and Wiz, 28, from Parkway Drive on their own new album.

Noel Gallagher

With the dissolution of Oasis back in 2009, fans of the band have eagerly awaited news of the former band members' various solo projects that were sure to come.
In 2010, Liam Gallagher was the first of the infamous Gallagher brothers to strike with the creation of his band, Beady Eye, along with three former members of Oasis: Andy Bell, Gem Archer, and Chris Sharrock. The band has found a modicum of success in their brief history with their record Different Gear, Still Speeding back in February of this year. As Beady Eye get ready to make their US debut both onstage and on the David Letterman show, it leaves Oasis' fans wondering what the former lead songwriter of Oasis, Noel Gallagher, is doing holed up in a studio in Los Angeles. The writer of such classic tunes as "Wonderwall" and "Don't Look Back In Anger" has yet to issue even an official peep about his upcoming project.
Currently, there is not much substantiated information about Noel's upcoming project. However, various parties associated with the record have come forward and revealed some news. Notably, Jon Graboff, who is known for his work with Ryan Adams & The Cardinals, has stated via his Facebook page that he had worked on Noel's record playing slide guitar. There have also been rumors and a video interview with Noel confirming the reason for his presence in Los Angeles. There has also been trickling information over the past few weeks regarding the recording of his first video, song title unknown, until now.
News has surfaced this evening on a production company's Facebook page after a question was asked regarding their work with Noel Gallagher. The question was responded to positively and a title of "The Death of You And Me" was given as the name of this video with its first appearance sometime at "the end of summer." It's highly likely that this is the title of Noel's first single as a solo artist.
The title is relevant for those that know the story of the dissolution of Oasis, as it will undoubtedly strike people as being related to his schism with his former bandmate brother. Ultimately, we will soon see what Noel Gallagher is capable of as his own man.
*UPDATE* The production company that released the information about the aforementioned single has removed the comment from their page about the new single.
