For Noel Gallagher, Oasis is old news. But for the hordes of journalists/friends/enemies who talk to him, that's just not the case. Yesterday (June 7) at Governors Ball, Billboard spoke to the former Oasis frontman about what it's like to constantly field questions about his old band (hint: he doesn't like it).
"It's becoming a little bit annoying," Gallagher admitted. "Not that people are interested -- that's great -- but there are only so many times that you can say it's not going to happen. And yet people will still ask the question."
Liam Gallagher and The Who frontman Roger Daltrey are forming a supergroup for the upcoming TFI Friday comeback episode.
TFI Friday will return for a one-off live special at 9pm next Friday (June 12), hosted by Chris Evans.
A TFI spokesman has confirmed to NME that Gallagher and Daltrey will perform 'My Generation' as part of a supergroup featuring The Lightning Seeds' Ian Broudie and former Oasis drummer (and Ringo Starr's son) Zak Starkey.
"Liam's got a bit of time on his hands since Beady Eye called it a day last year so he fancied trying his hand at something new," a 'source' also told The Sun. "He's told his mates he's pretty bored. Other than Noel, you would be hard pushed to find a better set of bandmates than Roger, Ian and Zak. It's a proper supergroup and the performance will be something to remember."
The yet-unnamed will be joined by fellow musical guests Blur, Stone Roses and Primal Scream bassist Mani, Rudimental and Years & Years. It's not yet known whether the Gallagher-Daltrey-Broudie-Starkey supergroup will play any further shows following the TFI Friday performance.
Meanwhile, Liam Gallagher has discussed his recent involvement in a charity football match in Italy. Gallagher appeared alongside a number of former Juventus players like Alessandro Del Piero and Pavel Nedved at the Juventus Stadium in Torino on Tuesday night (June 2). The match was organised by the Italian equivalent of Soccer Aid.
Speaking about the event, Gallagher has since said: "The invitation to take part came from an old friend of mine Andrea Dulio who used to work for Sony Italy whom I knew throughout the Oasis era."
Gallagher added: "I’ve played a few in my time with the mighty Oasis but never football. I must say I was a little nervous in front of 45,000 crazy Italians... I’m not sure what was said at half time as I was on the piss around that time as I was substituted 20 minutes into the game much to my delight as I was fucked," Gallagher told The Secret Footballer. "I do run most days but I haven’t had a proper kickabout since 1999."
Below is a video of Noel Gallagher performing the first half of 'Wonderwall' at the Free Tibet concert in New York from June 7th 1997.
In March 2009 'Oasis' were banned from performing in China. The Chinese Government is said to have revoked the band's performance licences, and cancelled the two concerts they were to stage in Beijing and Shanghai in April 2009.
The promoters of the shows say that a decision to cancel them was taken after the Government realised that Noel Gallagher had appeared at a 'Free Tibet' benefit gig in the U.S. In 1997. "The Government deemed that the band are unsuitable to perform to their fans in the Chinese Republic."

Former Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher played the Opera House last night, treating the Boston crowd to a nice mix of his new High Flying Birds material and a few classic, ’90s Britpop anthems. But midway through the show, one enterprising young local band decided it was the right time to get their music directly into the hands of one Noelly G.
The band in question, we think, is this group called the Memo, and some internet sleuthing says they might be from Braintree.
The exchange took a hilarious turn as Gallagher playfully scolded the band for not properly labeling their demo CD. “When you’re giving away CDs of your shit,” Gallagher started up, “there’s not even a fucking name of who it is, or what it’s called, or a phone number, or nothing. No song titles, no name, no nothing.
Now unless this is some psychedelic fucking album project, I’m saying, this cunt’s going nowhere. Thank you very much.”
Gallagher asked what the band was called, and they responded, “The Memo.”
And that sent Gallagher went into classic riff mode.
“The invisible man? No… the Memo? Do you fucking get the irony of that? A CD with nothing written on it by somebody called the Memo. Fucking hell — don’t make me say it.”
Gallagher then demanded that the whole interaction be put on YouTube, so here it is:
