– I’ll tell you what’s wrong. Fame’s wasted on these cunts today. Bar Kanye. You watch him on the MTV Awards and you think, ‘You can fucking stay, you’re alright’. Does anybody give a fuck about what any of these current pop stars are up to? Who gives a shit what fucking One Direction do? Cocksuckers, all of them in rehab by the time they’re 30. Harry Styles has got nothing to say for himself – nothing. ‘You alright, mate?’ “Uhhh.” That’s it. The gig will never die because you can’t download it. You can’t download spirit. Who gives a shit what Ellie Goulding is up to? Really? Adele, what? Blows my fucking mind. It blows my fucking mind. Nobody cares! Fame’s wasted on them, with their fucking in-ear monitors and their electronic cigarettes. And their fragrances that they’re bringing out for Christmas. You fucking dicks.
Noel Gallagher i det nye Esquire om problemet med nutidens popstjerner.
Fantastiske quotes. 😉 Men jeg må tilstå at være lidt på linie med 88; kunne havde hans nuværende solomusik dog bare en smule af samme vildskab!
Ældre interviews med Noel i forbindelse med udgivelsen af den første NGHFB, indikerer at det er til et bryllup, at Liam og Noel kommer op og slås, ca. en måned før Oasis tourstart. Deres ældre bror Poul, må stoppe dem. Både Noels og Liams daværende hustruer er til stede under slagsmålet, der er angiveligt er ret voldsomt. Efterfølgende iflg. Noel, begynder Liam at indtale surrealistiske trusler på både Noels og hans hustrus telefoner. Aldrig et kedeligt øjeblik, når vi taler om The Gallaghers.
Mere underholdende end at lytte til hans triste retro rock…
“I tell you what I think about Liam and this is just an opinion. He would fucking aggressively disagree. He was rightly put up there as this fucking huge rock star but he didn’t write a note, not a word. From my perspective I don’t know how comfortable I’d feel about the mania surrounding us, and you knowing in your fucking soul that you were responsible for really wearing the clothes. And that’s not a dig. But when you’re doing interviews about an album you’ve not written… I know it did his head in a little bit that he was just the singer.”
“The last six months were fucking awful, it was excruciating. Me and Liam had a massive, massive, massive fistfight three weeks before the world tour started, and fights like that in the past would always be easy to rectify but for some reason I wasn’t going to let it go this time. I was just like, “Fuck this cunt.” And there was an atmosphere all the way around the world.”
“By that stage I was flying separately to the rest of the band, which I have to tell you was fucking great. And Liam was sacking tour managers because he didn’t like their shoes. Then he starts his own clothing label and starts dedicating songs to it on stage and I’m like, “Really, is this what it’s come to?” He’s modelling parkas on stage which you could buy on his website. And it’s just like, “This is not for me.” All that being said, we had two gigs left and I reckon if I’d had got to the end of that tour and I’d had six months off I would have just forgotten about it, got on with it. But the straw that broke the camel’s back was the night in Paris and that was a fight. There’s no hidden darkness. It was just a fight about fucking nonsense, just him being pissed. He’d cancelled the gig at the V Festival and we were getting loads of shit for it in the press. And to this day, Liam thinks that I know every journalist intimately in London, like they’re my mates, they all come to mine for Sunday lunch. It’s amazing you’ve not been there! It’s a great spread my missus puts on for everybody. But Liam’s convinced I’m some kind of puppet-master, and he blames it all on me. And then it just escalated. It blew up. And that was it. I sat in the car and thought, “You know what, I’ve done enough now. Fuck it, I’m going to leave.”
Rozzer, hvad skriver han om Liam?! Quotes, quotes, quotes! 😉
Vrissen? Humoren skinner som altid igennem, når Noel G udtaler sig. Det er benhård arbejderklasse humor nordfra. Hele interviewet er hysterisk morsomt. Ingen går fri. Ej heller ham selv, og da slet ikke Our Kid.
Generelt har manden jo ret her – men man kommer ikke uden om at han virker en smule vrissen!
