Liam Gallagher

Songbird is a good song to be fair.  Very early 70's Lennon, but that's not a bad thing.

[OG]

even this could cut it

New album has "lennony vibes", according to Liam. So, you're right about an album of Songbirds

Bradders cooked me some delicious chips this evening, then the scum came along and pissed all over them 

 

Can you imagine him being the Muse sub?, not sure how much you believe but I thought after him playing Summer Sonic in Japan V weekend that there was a chance, I don't think it'll rule him out of Glasto though, he knows what that would do for him and if he'd need to be fairly high to stop him playing.

If I'm honest, I can't see him only playing one UK festival this summer. I could be wrong, time will tell.

The Sun is making a thing out of Liam Gallagher being UK exclusive at R+L. I hope Reading and Leeds don't include that in their announcement tomorrow if it's just gonna be wrong a few weeks later - getting kinda silly with that now.

Festival exclusives are getting embarrassing now......its just a false statement to make people buy tickets for a festival.  Foals were a UK exclusive at Citadel festival then a few weeks later they are confirmed for the Eden Sessions

Me neither but if he is I think he might sub, I think there is more to his solo act that Beady Eye as he'll knock out half the set at least on Oasis songs.

It could go either way, as long as he is free from certain clashes I'm unsure how him being 3rd down for eg on Other would be much different in letting Foals do sub.

If he's announced as a UK Fest I think it's bull unless it is labelled as the only one he'll play this year. Melvin is more involved with Glasto now so anyway he can use a Glasto show to help sell Reading he will.

Not really.  I can imagine him being up at The Park to a medium sized crowd though.

That's one of Noel's solo singles from his first album. There's no chance of Liam covering it.

I am aware of that....

Now there's a turn up for the books. Nobody saw that coming, I'll bet.

Im baffled, how has he managed to blag a sub headline spot at Reading?

 

Hes playing higher up than beady eye did in 2011. I can't figure that out

I'm surprised he's got that bigger slot. Doesn't really make sense!!! Mind you, Blossoms are pretty high up as well!

I'm now convince we'll get Noel at Glastonbury 

[eastynh]

Neol would have to sub though surely?  That would put the cat amongst the pigeons.

[johnny-yen]

He's been updated to TBC. So it's happening. I wonder where @eFestivalsgot the new details from.

Somebody on here said they had info putting him at the festival and that they'd messaged Neil with the details.

Would he? 

If 2 of the 3 acts playing 3rd down were Noel Gallagher & Katy Perry, that would be pretty big. "2 years worth in 1" as someone once said

Why what have I missed that suggests he's gonna be there?

Aye I think he would, which is why it isn't happening.

[the wonderwhy]

I reckon he'll open Other

Would be silly after him already doing it once, mind. 

And it being shite. A hero's return I can understand, but I don't think many were saying 'whoa I'd love that to happen again one year' afterwards.

[Supernintendo Chalmers]

I think it's been well established that these exclusively clauses mean nothing. My theory is, the reason he wasn't on the initial Glastonbury poster is because Reading & Leeds have him too and want his name to help shift more tickets before Glastonbury announce him. I'm sure there are gentleman's agreements in place between the organisers of each respective festival all the time

This is the issue I have with Liam. Beady Eye were not good. Even he says if this album flops, he's gunna call it a day. I'm kind of expecting to witness a car crash.... I hope not, but I'm expecting it

Partly why I think he'll do it again tbh

It would be interesting to compare Noels record sales and tours in the uk,  in comparison to Foos, Radiohead, XX, National,  and Katy Perry. He would probably have justification to say hes a headliner never mind sub. There is no way he's 3rd on the bill.
