Noel Gallagher Quitting Oasis - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Zoneboy · 08-28-2009, 06:59 PM

Noel Gallagher has announced he is quitting rock band Oasis because he can no longer work with his brother Liam.

Noel, the founding member of the band, made the statement on the band's website. He said a series of rows with his brother led to the decision.

The guitarist said: "It's with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight.

"People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer."

"Apologies to all the people who bought tickets for the shows in Paris, Konstanz and Milan," he added.

'Gutted'

Earlier it was announced the band had cancelled their second gig in the space of a week because of "an altercation within the band".

They had been expected to play the Rock en Seine festival in Paris, but fans at the concert were told by the support band that Oasis would not be performing.

Many of the crowd thought it was a joke - until screens at either side of the stage showed the message "as a result of an altercation within the band, the Oasis gig has been cancelled".

Oasis fans used Twitter to respond to the news that lead guitarist Noel had quit.

I'm shocked.........................that it took this long for something like this to happen! Those Gallagher brothers have been fighting with each other for years. I'm surprised one or the other of them hadn't left the band years ago!

I didn't even know Oasis was still together.

They are both talented. It sucks that they can't get along.

I used to like Oasis. But one of the things that makes me appreciate a band even more, other than the music, of course, is when they all get along, and enjoy playing together. When band members don't get along, it's a total turn-off for me, no matter how good the music is. In the case of Oasis, for God's sake, they're brothers!! Suck it up and deal with it!!
