“I Didn’t Know What Had Been Going On Between Them. It Could Have Been Some Small Comment That Sparked

“I didn’t know what had been going on between them. It could have been some small comment that sparked things off. Liam spent the evening in the bar with endless vodka and oranges. The MTV awards were being held that evening and there were loads of people arriving — a distraction we didn’t need. We arranged to meet at Noel’s room and when Liam didn’t show up, my heart sank. He’d gone back to the bar straight after breakfast. Yvonne McConaghy, who was assisting me, went to try and coax him out but he flatly refused to go anywhere near Noel’s room. He said he’d do the photo session as long as it wasn’t in Noel’s room, so we got in the bus and he took his drink with him. We stopped off at this bridge and the first thing Liam did was hurl his glass at the side of the bridge. Noel was furious, but I took him aside and said ‘Look, it doesn’t matter. As long as you stand there, I’ll catch him in the frame.’

But Noel was so pissed off, and you can see it in these photos. He is literally gritting his teeth. The body language is incredible. It was awful. You can almost hear the air crackle.”

— Jill Furmanovsky with Liam and Noel Gallagher, Paris 1995.

Noel was also reportedly complaining furiously about French people on bicycles and then had returned to pose, which are these photos.

whiskey a go go theory time

for those who don't know, in september 1994, oasis were performing in the USA. one of them gigs - the whiskey a go go one - didn't go so well in the sense that noel sang horribly and didn't play much better, either, however, Liam sang beautifully throughout the whole thing and tony had a pretty good gig as well. guigs and the bone were nothing special but neither were they awful. so with the exception of a wee 'hey we didn't all agree which song to play NOW!' mishap, the gig was alright for everyone except noel.

the gig in question:

Thanks to the guy who found the tapes and made them public for everyone to see. Uploading here for an even wider spread. The boys were on cr

why was noel so unglued that he couldn't even perform semi-decently? the official version was, of course, hurr durr meth. but in supersonic (2016) Liam says he took meth as well - and he sang like an angel. was noel's meth different from everyone else's?

theory time: obviously, it wasn't the meth that messed noel up. the meth did nothing wrong and everyone else's performance that night proves as much. so leave the poor meth alone.

what messed noel up to the point he couldn't perform was having sex with Liam. proof:

but... noel had already written lock all the doors, up in the sky, slide away - all his depraved incest anthems? and according to Liam, the 'magic' happened in Liam's childhood bedroom (big yikes). surely noel's unhealthy incestuous relationship with Liam had been long since consummated by september 1994? well, yes. except noel obviously doesn't believe in any sort of equity or reciprocity, so Liam - apologies to the squeamish! - as we know from up in the sky was always left asking 'how does it feel when you're inside me?'. never the other way around.

until september 1994, that is, when Liam somehow managed to convince noel to bottom. and of course noely dearest ended up hating experiencing what he himself would regularly subject Liam to - so he left Liam that accusatory note, as if everything was Liam's fault. we can go on 'like brothers' when i'm banging you, but we can't go on 'like brothers' when you're banging me. and if you dare suggest that we do something YOU would like, i'm going to punish you by leaving you, scaring the shit out of you.
