As many of you may already know, the Modfather Paul Weller picked up the Godlike Genius Award at last week’s NME Awards. No argument from us; the guy is a legend. No one would agree with us more than Noel and Gem.

Noel recorded a special message for the awards and Gem was asked by Paul to join him on stage to perform as part of his band playing guitar and providing backing vocals.

If you’re not in the UK or didn’t catch the TV broadcast you may have missed the guys so we decided we’d go trawling the interwebs to find you the footage:

HERE’s Noel talking about Paul (approximately 3′20″ in).

And a little later on in the same video Gem performs ‘Start’ and ‘Eton Rifles’ with Weller.

Gem also performed with Paul at his performance at the Haiti Benefit at The Roundhouse on the 25th February. To donate to the charity or find out more about their work, click HERE!

And while we’re on the subject, Gem is not only a killer guitar player he also enjoys dabbling in graphic design and made up an exclusive art print for us. You can check that out HERE!

NOEL GALLAGHER is consulting his lawyers over an article in today’s News of the World attributing derogative remarks about his former band members to the Oasis songwriter. Yet again this tawdry tabloid is fabricating lies about ex-members of Oasis, and has clearly sunk to new depths this time.

In today’s paper they write that Noel has made derogatory comments about Liam’s new band (which they still insist on referring to as Oasis, another of their many errors). The claims made in the article and the quotes attributed to Noel are simply untrue. What’s more, we have learned that the article was written by the same hack journalist who brought fans the ‘exclusive’ that Liam had recruited a female bass player recently. The woman named in that article, who’s actually a fan website editor, embarrassed the newspaper with a categorical denial within hours of the story surfacing.

Ex-Oasis-Frontmann Noel Gallagher hat angekündigt, bei dem Prozess gegen seinen Rippenbrecher Danny Sullivan persönlich vor Ort sein zu wollen. Die kanadische Staatsanwältin Ruth Kleinhenz teilte dem Gerichtshof in Ontario mit, dass Gallagher von dem Recht Gebrauch machen wolle, persönlich vor Ort seine Zeugenaussage zu Papier zu bringen. Daraufhin beschwerte sich der Verteidiger des Angeklagten Sullivan. Man solle Gallaghers Anfrage fallen lassen, damit er nicht den Verhandlungsverlauf durch seine Anwesenheit beeinflussen könne. Diese Beschwerde wurde aber abgewiesen. Nun wird ein Termin gesucht, an dem Gallagher Zeit hat, damit er persönlich vor Gericht stehen darf.

Hintergrund: Im Herbst 2008 stürmte Sullivan bei einem Auftritt in Toronto auf die Bühne und brach Noel drei Rippen. Nach dem Zwischenfall mussten Oasis fünf Konzerte absagen. Im November 2009 wurde Sullivan bereits für schuldig befunden, nun steht die Gerichtsverhandlung an, zu der Gallagher, der mittlerweile aus Oasis ausgetreten ist, als Zeuge geladen ist. Zur Zeit plant Gallagher seine ersten Solo-Auftritte.

Schon im Juli will Liam Gallagher ein Album mit seiner neuen, alten Band rausbringen. Sich von dem Namen Oasis zu trennen, bereitet ihm keinerlei Probleme.

“Ich bin froh, den Namen nur noch von hinten sehen zu müssen!”

Noch im Dezember vergangenen Jahres sagte Liam er könne sich vorstellen, seine neuen Songs unter dem Namen “Oasis” zu veröffentlichen. Das dementierte er nun wehement und redete Klartext. In einem Interview gab das ewige Lästermaul zu, dass er den Bandnamen Oasis schon immer doof fand und seine neue Truppe definitiv unter einem anderen Namen auftreten wird.

“Nein, es wird nicht Oasis sein, das war sowieso ein scheiß Name. Ich bin froh ihn nur noch von hinten sehen zu müssen!”

Mit dem neuen Namen wollte Liam aber partout nicht rausrücken. Er sagte lediglich:

“Es gibt da einen Namen, den wir in Erwägung ziehen, aber im Moment konzentrieren wir uns einfach auf die Musik und gucken, wie’s läuft.”

Auch sein Bruder, Noel Gallagher, ist derweil nicht untätig und wird im März seinen ersten post Oasis Gig spielen. Wir dürfen gespannt sein, was man von den Gallagher Brüdern in Zukunft auf die Ohren bekommen wird.

Modfather says he’s not picking sides

Paul Weller has said that he believes that Oasis splitting has been a good thing – and told NME.COM that he would be happy to work with both Noel and Liam Gallagher.

The Jam’s former frontman said that he liked both the Gallaghers “equally” and would not pick sides because of the split.

“Creatively, I think the Oasis split is going to be good thing,” he said. “There’s going to be some great things to come from both of them in the future. I’d definitely be up for collaborating with Liam and with Noel. I love them both equally, and think they’re both extremely talented in their own ways.”

Weller is set to return with his own album in the spring which features contributions from My Bloody Valentine’s Kevin Shields. He will also play a residency at London’s Royal Albert Hall in April.

Singer speaks out at the Manchester launch of his clothing line

Liam Gallagher has spoken out about his love for his brother and former Oasis bandmate Noel.

Talking at the launch of his Pretty Green clothing line at the Manchester branch of Selfridge’s today (December 2), the singer revealed his feelings towards Noel, despite previously saying that he had no interest in speaking to him again.

“He’s doing his thing, we’re doing our thing, I wish him all the best,” Liam told Sky News. “I don’t wish him any bad, I’m his brother. I love him to death.” He added, but did warn Noel by saying “Don’t release it [Noel's solo album] the same day, ‘cos we’ll ave ya.”

Asked whether he had a message to pass onto his brother, Liam cheekily said: “Good luck mate – see you in the next world. Don’t be late!”

As previously reported, Liam said his new band “May still be called Oasis“, but he did reveal that they had been thinking of a new name.

“We’re sorta going through the mill of getting a new name, nothings sticking, so we’ve drawn the line on the names at the moment.” He explained. “People are still gonna go ‘Its still Oasis, but its not Oasis without Noel‘ – life’s too short to be arsing about with what people think and that. We’ll see what happens, we’re concentrating on the music at the moment.” He added.

As well as promoting his new clothing line, Liam recently announced that his new band had “Got a bit of studio time booked after Christmas”.

Daniel Sullivan admits causing bodily harm

The man accused of attacking ex-Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher in Toronto last year has pleaded guilty to assault.

Daniel Sullivan admitted causing bodily harm to Gallagher in the Ontario Court of Justice yesterday (November 20).

“Sullivan managed to make his way up to the main stage area, run past the electrical chords set up along the stage, pass the drum kit and lunge toward Noel Gallagher, shoving him violently from behind with great force,” said Crown attorney Ruth Neilson in reading an agreed statement of facts to Justice Richard Schneide.

The court heard Sullivan almost made it to Liam Gallagher, but was tackled by security and was taken to the ground on stage.

He was then held backstage and police said Sullivan was resisting, struggling and screaming as he was arrested. Officers tried to calm him down.

Gallagher was attacked at the V Festival in Canada on September 7 2008.

He suffered three broken ribs, causing the band to cancel a slew of gigs.

Neilson said Sullivan was intoxicated at the time and has no recollection of how he was able to mount the stage, except that he “remembers attempting to climb over the fence”.

Noel Gallagher stated it took eight months before he felt normal again, reports the Toronto Sun.

Schneider ordered a pre-sentence report for Sullivan. His sentencing hearing will begin on February 5, 2010.

Er ist nicht von der Bühne wegzudenken: Liam Gallagher will zurück ins Rampenlicht.

Seine Band Oasis ist zwar nicht mehr, trotzdem will der britische Rocker sich noch lange nicht in den Ruhestand begeben. Nun hat er seinen Fans versprochen, sie bald wieder mit neuer Musik zu überraschen.

“Ich werde zurückkommen und genau das tun – innerhalb der nächsten paar Monate wieder live spielen”, beteuert der Vollblutmusiker. “Ich war gerade auf Tournee. Ich vermisse es, Lieder zu singen. Ich vermisse die Menschen.”

Hilfe hat sich der 37-Jährige bei seinen ehemaligen Bandkollegen Gem Archer, Andy Bell und Chris Sharrock geholt, enthüllt er. Mit diesen arbeitet er an neuem Material – jedoch nicht als Oasis!

“Wir machen momentan zusammen Musik. Nicht Oasis. Oasis ist vorbei”, erklärt er. “Außer Noel sind aber noch alle dabei.”

Im August war es zum Eklat zwischen Liam und seinem Bruder Noel Gallagher, dem damaligen Gitarrist der Gruppe, gekommen. Vor ihrem gemeinsamen Auftritt in Paris zerstritt sich das Geschwisterpaar so heftig, dass Noel die Band im Anschluss endgültig verließ.

Liam ist derweil überzeugt, dass der Zank nicht der ursprüngliche Grund für den Gitarristen war, dem Rest der Truppe den Rücken zu kehren. Seiner Meinung nach hatte sein Bruder den Ausstieg bereits im Voraus geplant. “Um ehrlich zu sein, glaube ich, dass Noel schön länger nicht mehr mitmachen wollte”, verdeutlichte er in einem Interview im italienischen Radio. “Aber ihr müsst ihn fragen, wenn er vorbeischaut und sein kleines Solo-Ding dreht. Wir hatten einen Streit, aber wir hatten vorher schon viel größere, die um wichtigere Menschen gingen. Im Grunde glaube ich, dass er nicht mehr mitmachen wollte, etwas anderes tun wollte. Aber er hatte einfach nicht den Mumm, es der Band oder den Fans zu beichten.”

Als es im Sommer zu der Ausschreitung zwischen den beiden Künstlern kam, sollen mehr als nur die Fetzen geflogen sein. Noel besteht zwar darauf, dass niemand verletzt wurde, seine Gitarre jedoch Schaden erlitt. “Ich hab ihm die Gitarre nicht über den Schädel gezogen”, enthüllt Noel, bereut dies jedoch. “Ich wünschte, ich hätte es getan, Mann. Er hat meine Gitarre echt übel zugerichtet und die hatte ich von meiner Frau geschenkt bekommen. Deshalb dachte ich, dass es einfach nur fair wäre, mich zu revanchieren. Also habe ich eine von seinen zerschmettert. Das hört sich an, als wären wir zwei zänkische Weiber.”

“My current new favourite German band of all time. Proper tour bus music. Spiritual!!”

That was how Noel described the band Neu! this time last year.

Oasis are big fans of Neu! and you can hear their influence on songs such as ‘Falling Down‘ which Noel described as “3 chords, 1 note – Krautpop!!”

So it was nice to read today on The Quietus that Michael Rother – legendary guitarist and founding member of Neu! – praised the Oasis track ‘Can Y’See It Now? (I Can See It Now!!)‘ which was featured on the Neu!-influenced compilation ‘Brand Neu!‘ earlier this year.

“I very much enjoyed listening to that compilation. To be honest, I also quite like the Oasis track. I mention that because I read in some reviews that they got a bit of a beating. It was of course surprising to read that Noel Gallagher expressed his admiration for Neu! and that he convinced his brother to adopt some of the ideas. When I heard that Oasis single ‘The Shock Of The Lightning’, I immediately understood the idea behind that, the fast-forward movement, the strong surge in combination with a Beatles-esque sound. To me that’s an interesting combination, Neu! crossed with Beatles ideas.”

The quote comes from an article due to be published tomorrow at The Quietus which we’re sure will be worth a read.

If you’re unfamiliar with Neu!’s music then you should definitely check them out. Noel’s particular favourite is ‘Hallogallo’ off their debut album, but you can’t really go wrong with any of their albums.

For those of you in the UK who wish to delve a little deeper into the world of Krautrock, BBC4 will be showing a documentary about it this coming Sunday.
