Noel Gallagher On Getting A Beer Belly, His Eyesight And More

Noel Gallagher has made another appearance on The Matt Morgan Podcast, you can listen to the podcast here (subscription required).

Below are a couple of quotes I have found.

On getting a beer belly during lockdown.

“I’m getting a bit fat, actually. It’s all the boozing. I’m getting a little beer belly. Like everyone, I’ve been drinking every night at home for a year, which is something I never usually do.I usually drink every night on the road and then when I get home I abstain for a while and get back in shape. Or you have a night out twice a week, so you don’t drink at home. I’m drinking every f***ing week. I’m f***ing loving it but I’ve started to wear baggy clothes, let’s put it that way. I looked at it and thought, ‘That’s a disgrace. I do go to the gym regularly, so it can’t be that bad.”

On his eyesight

“My eyes are really f***ing bad now. My eyesight is receding, or whatever the visual term might be. It’s not as sharp as it was. I can’t read anything. I think they’ve got to be on a certain level of badness to have laser eye surgery and I’m just on the cusp of it now.”

On police fears regarding a party-mad summer.

“If someone’s preparing for a summer full of drug-fuelled mayhem, you know things are on the up. I’m going to get stuck into s***loads of it. Police are saying, ‘We know everyone’s going to be out in the summer, and we’re prepared for everyone to be absolutely [censored] all summer, and just causing trouble’. This is brilliant. It’ll be like the Roaring Twenties when it got going – people went mad!”
