Noel Gallagher

[Chad]

I freakin love that guy. I can't say I ever really listened to Oasis and I have never owned a record by them, but I just read an interview from Guitar World.

Question: I haven't been hearing a lot of guitar on your recent albums. Any plans on getting back into guitar in the near future?

Noel: On my previous record there was one guitar solo. On this record there are nine. So fuck you.

Question: You used to say you weren't too fond of Oasis' Be Here Now. Has your opinion changed over the years?

Noel: I meet people who say, "That's your best album." And I say, "Really?" but I think, you fucking moron, you don't know what you are talking about.

Interesting. One guy's "I love this dude" is another guy's "Fuck him, what an asshole."

Caught part of a concert of theirs (NGHFB) on Palladia, and he is great.

I'm not saying he isn't an asshole, I just think he is a hilarious asshole.

His new album is pretty good so far. It needs a few more listens.

I may have to give it a listen. It isn't that I didn't like Oasis, I just never really listened to them.

Rock musicians, man. Groan.

I like his solo album better than his stuff with Oasis....not that they didn't have their moments. That album has some brilliant stuff on it.

Both Noel and Liam are very opinionated. Part of the reason they cannot be in the same band anymore.

I always forget...is Noel the guitar playing douchebag brother or the singing douchebag brother?

They both sing, but Noel's the guitar player.

I'm a fan and dig his solo stuff.

I like that one sedate, mid-tempo song he does.

 

[OGG]

He is a tedious little twat.

Noel on his drinking buddy Bono:

"In comparison, Gallagher says Bono is “really f—ing brilliant company” — the kind of guy who remains the effortlessly charming life of the party even after putting away a few too many. “I’ve been drinking with him, and I’ve been leaving a bar at 6 in the morning and he’s on the bar singing opera,” marveled the Oasis co-founder. “He’s got a f—ing gig the following night with 70,000 people. And I’m being escorted out like James Brown — f—ing pissed.”

When I read that interview (I subscribe), I didn't think he was hilarious, just an asshole.

I can confirm this.

 

[Flamencology]

Yeah, I've heard nice things about Bono the private person, regardless of his public persona.

When hes on form hes an excellent song writer and performer. Cant stand his idiot brother though.
