<title>Ricky Hatton's Pretty Green</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>thesun.co.uk - I CAN guess who was feeling Pretty Green yesterday - RICKY HATTON.</p>

<p>The Hitman rocked up at the official launch of OASIS star LIAM GALLAGHER's clothing line on Saturday night.</p>

<p>And the boxer spent most of the night wobbling about on the dancefloor at the London bash.</p>

<p>One party-goer said: "Ricky owned the dance floor all night. He was the star of the show. Sometimes he just stood there on his own. It was funny but a bit tragic. He was off his face."</p>

<p>It was an odd mix of folk at the Gore Hotel, in Kensington. I was shocked to see This Morning's seemingly-sweet host HOLLYWILLOUGHBY chatting to Liam's missus NICOLE APPLETON and on a tear-up with KASABIAN and RICHARD ASHCROFT.</p>

<p>Another surprise guest was Sugababe HEIDI RANGE, there with her bloke DAVE BERRY. One person noticeable by his absence though was, of course, Liam's brother NOEL.</p>

<p>Liam spent most of the night chatting to MILES KANE from THE LAST SHADOW PUPPETS. There's talk he's trying to persuade Miles to form a band with him.</p>

<p>A source said: "Liam was being really passionate. It looked like he was recruiting."</p>

<p>Pretty Green designer Liam also paid a backhanded compliment to Kasabian's SERGE PIZZORNO. He said: "He knows how to put an outfit together. He's got some style but he still needs a few tips from me."</p>

<p>Seemed like a top night. Liam even mixed his own Patron Tequila c**ktail for the party.</p>

<p>It was probably too many of those which did for Ricky.</p>

<p>Last I heard they were all still at it in Liam's penthouse room at 8am yesterday.</p>

<p>It seems the rocker is showing no signs of slowing down.</p>

<title>Bonehead sad about Oasis split</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>gear4music.com - Oasis's former electric guitar player has expressed his sadness about the demise of the band.</p>

<p>Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs spent eight years in the Manchester group, playing on hit albums such as Definitely Maybe and (What's the Story) Morning Glory before quitting in 1999.</p>

<p>Oasis continued to enjoy success during the following decade, but split when guitarist Noel Gallagher decided to quit during the summer after falling out with his brother Liam.</p>

<p>Speaking to the Birmingham Mail, Bonehead admitted he is sad that the band ended this way.</p>

<p>"I wish they could have gone out with a bow," he commented.</p>

<p>Bonehead's electric guitar playing can be heard on many of the band's biggest hits, including Don't Look Back In Anger, Roll With It and Some Might Say.</p>

<p>He is now performing full-time in The Vortex after guesting with the band on several occasions.</p>

<p>"I'm the old man of the band - the others are in their early 30s," he joked.</p><hr />Posted on Tuesday, 10/11/2009 00:58 by <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/member/profile/0/1.html">DaVincentCode</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/oasis/0/1544.html">0 Comments</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/news_comment_form.php?news_id=1544" rel="nofollow">Submit Comments</a><hr />]]></description>

<title>Liam hosts Pretty Green party</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>live4ever.uk.com - Star of the night Liam Gallagher arrived fashionably late at last night&amp;rsquo;s launch of the Pretty Green fashion label, no one complained as the clothing line is the Ex Oasis front man&amp;rsquo;s own creation.</p>

<p>Paparazzi camera flashes galore greeted the many guests and friends invited to the ultra fancy Gore Hotel in Kensington. Among the stars in attendance where boxing champ Ricky Hatton, Gallagher brother Paul, who played resident DJ for the night, the Verve&amp;rsquo;s Richard Ashcroft accompanied by his beautiful French girlfriend and of course, Liam&amp;rsquo;s lovely wife Nicole Appleton.</p>

<p>Ex Oasis band members Andy Bell, Gem Archer and Zak Starky showed their support and rockers from Kasabian and The Prodigy were also on hand to party hard. Obviously missing was Liam&amp;rsquo;s brother Noel Gallagher who has not been seen with any of the Oasis band members since the band split up back in August of 09.</p>

<p>Liam brought his best behavior to the table, looking quite the fashion star decked out head to toe in Pretty Green. Check out some of the snaps from last night&amp;rsquo;s reception <a href="http://www.live4ever.uk.com/2009/11/oasis-star-liam-gallagher-hosts-pretty-green-label-launch-party/">here</a>:</p><hr />Posted on Sunday, 08/11/2009 21:45 by <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/member/profile/0/1.html">DaVincentCode</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/oasis/0/1543.html">0 Comments</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/news_comment_form.php?news_id=1543" rel="nofollow">Submit Comments</a><hr />]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>live4ever.us - A football side poses with a surprise new signing - rocker Liam Gallagher.</p>

<p>Liam, 37, was secretly asked to play for bankrupt Berkhamsted FC in a fund-raising game.</p>

<p>And 200 fans saw the Manchester City supporter star in a 5-2 win over The Arcadia Group at his side's Hertfordshire ground.</p>

<p>Paul Smith, boss of club sponsor Stoneforce, said: "We recently refurbished Liam's house and I asked him to play. It was great to see everyone's faces when he came.</p>

<p>"He raced up and down the wing and came close to scoring a few times. He's pretty fit. Then he stayed until 1am drinking and telling stories.</p>

<p>"He even played the lads new songs. He had a great time.</p>

<title>Coronation Street Want Noel</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>onthebox.com - Coronation Street bosses have developed quite a taste for popstar cameos in recent years.</p>

<p>We&amp;rsquo;ve already had members of Boyzone and Hear&amp;rsquo;say working in the Rovers and now jobless rocker Noel Gallagher has revealed that producers keep pestering him to make an appearance on the cobbles.</p>

<p>&amp;ldquo;Me and Sara (his partner) are obsessed with Coronation Street. I&amp;rsquo;ve been asked to appear loads of times but I&amp;rsquo;ve always turned it down,&amp;rdquo; said the former Oasis frontman.</p>

<p>But maybe that&amp;rsquo;s because they won&amp;rsquo;t give Noel the part he really wants.</p>

<p>The singer previously said he had an idea for a cameo he could play in the show, which involved beating up Jack P. Shepherd&amp;rsquo;s bad boy character David Platt.</p>

<p>Jack said: &amp;ldquo;When Noel was asked on the radio what he&amp;rsquo;d like to do if he was in the show he said he said he&amp;rsquo;s like to punch that David Platt fella!&amp;rdquo;</p>

<p>We&amp;rsquo;re sure that Liam would give you a hand in a scrap though Jack&amp;hellip;</p><hr />Posted on Thursday, 05/11/2009 10:31 by <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/member/profile/0/1.html">DaVincentCode</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/oasis/0/1541.html">0 Comments</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/news_comment_form.php?news_id=1541" rel="nofollow">Submit Comments</a><hr />]]></description>

<title>Something for the Wonderwall?</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>thisislondon.co.uk - How do you make a normal wall into a Wonderwall? How about hanging a huge picture of yourself and your wife Nicole Appleton on it?</p>

<p>The Oasis frontman was spotted taking delivery of this huge canvas of himself gurning while Nicole grins at their north London mansion.</p>

<p>There were also several smaller prints of the couple, so we can only assume they're making a shrine to themselves. That'll be fun at dinner parties.</p><hr />Posted on Thursday, 05/11/2009 10:28 by <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/member/profile/0/1.html">DaVincentCode</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/oasis/0/1540.html">0 Comments</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/news_comment_form.php?news_id=1540" rel="nofollow">Submit Comments</a><hr />]]></description>

<title>Paddy Power's Oasis forecast</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Online Betting Guide - Oasis still may reform according to <a href="http://www.paddypower.com/bet?AFF_ID=92370">Paddy Power </a>and if they don&amp;rsquo;t Paddy Power are offering odds on a range of names for Liam Gallagher&amp;rsquo;s new band. The most likely outcome for the egotistical Mancunian is he will name the band after himself!</p>

<p>Oasis Could Reform But Most Liekly Band Name Is Gallagher
Paddy Power don&amp;rsquo;t think we have necessarily seen the end of Oasis, they offer 2/1 that Oasis (including Liam Gallagher) record new material or perform live before 2011. If that doesn&amp;rsquo;t happen then it is very likely Liam will be forming his own band and Paddy Power are betting on the name of that band, the favourite is &amp;lsquo;Gallagher&amp;rsquo; at 5/1 with Paddy Power whilst another strong contender is &amp;lsquo;Burnage&amp;rsquo; (are in Manchester where Oasis spent their early days) and that can be backed at 8/1 with Paddy Power.</p>

<p>Interesting Band Names Could Include Dig At Noel
Other Liam Gallagher related names include &amp;lsquo;Our Kid&amp;rsquo; which is 18/1 with Paddy Power, &amp;lsquo;Genius&amp;rsquo; at 25/1 with Paddy Power, &amp;lsquo;Maine Road&amp;rsquo; at 33/1 with Paddy Power or &amp;lsquo;Tambourine&amp;rsquo; at 33/1 with Paddy Power. Less likely names include &amp;lsquo;NOASIS&amp;rsquo; which is 66/1 with Paddy Power or &amp;lsquo;Noel Is A Tw*t&amp;rsquo; which is 150/1 with Paddy Power. To find out the odds on more names and to bet on the success of Liam&amp;rsquo;s new band, visit the Paddy Power website and click on Novelty Bets.</p><hr />Posted on Tuesday, 03/11/2009 09:54 by <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/member/profile/0/1.html">DaVincentCode</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/oasis/0/1539.html">0 Comments</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/news_comment_form.php?news_id=1539" rel="nofollow">Submit Comments</a><hr />]]></description>

<title>Noel quitting London for Man</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>gigwise.com - The ex Oasis man says the capital has 'lost its spark'... </p>

<p>Noel Gallagher is moving back up to his native Manchester from London as he believes the capital has &amp;ldquo;lost its spark&amp;rdquo;.</p>

<p>The 42-year-old was speaking at the Music Industry Trusts' Awards at the Grosvenor House Hotel last night where he was hanging with his chums Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross.</p>

<p>He told the Metro: &amp;ldquo;I'm leaving London to go back up north, to Manchester. I've been advised to do a Rod Stewart, as in a tax exile, but I don't want to do it. But London has lost its spark.&amp;rdquo;</p>

<p>Noel was born in Longsight, Manchester and moved to London at Oasis' peak in the mid-nineties.</p>

<p>Last night the former Oasis man celebrated with Jonathan Ross after the chat show host was honoured with the main Music Industry Trusts' Award.</p>

<p>Wossy was presented the award by George Michael, while U2 and Sir Tom Jones both gave video tributes.</p><hr />Posted on Tuesday, 03/11/2009 09:49 by <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/member/profile/0/1.html">DaVincentCode</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/oasis/0/1538.html">1 Comments</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/news_comment_form.php?news_id=1538" rel="nofollow">Submit Comments</a><hr />]]></description>

<title>Bee Gees on Oasis split</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>nme.com - 'Oasis are just copying us by splitting up' - Daily Gossip</p>

<p>The Bee Gees' Robin Gibb has said Oasis' Noel and Liam Gallagher are mimicking them by having a tempestuous sibling relationship. Speaking about the recent Oasis split, Gibb said he and his brothers Maurice and Barry were rock'n'roll's first true band of brothers. "They're just copying us," he said. "We've been through all that. To be honest, I'm surprised they stayed together for as long as they did and I think they've gone as far as they can together." He added that the Gallaghers remind him of his brotherly relationships, "but on a more physically violent level" (Daily Mirror).</p><hr />Posted on Tuesday, 03/11/2009 09:45 by <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/member/profile/0/1.html">DaVincentCode</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/oasis/0/1537.html">0 Comments</a> | <a href="http://www.oasisfanatic.com/news/news_comment_form.php?news_id=1537" rel="nofollow">Submit Comments</a><hr />]]></description>

<title>Rother defends Oasis Track</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>live4ever.us - The Quietus' man of metal Dr Rock recently interviewed kosmische legend Michael Rother ....</p>

<p>During the course of the interview, Rother was asked about his thoughts on the Brand Neu! compilation, released earlier this year to much hoo-ha and complaints from Neu! fans upset at the inclusion of Oasis track 'I Can See It Now'.</p>

<p>But it seems as if the man from Neu! himself isn't with the haters: "I very much enjoyed listening to that compilation," he told us. "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. But some of the bands on Brand Neu! don't impress me that much. I would have liked to have f*** Buttons on there."</p>

<p>Here&amp;rsquo;s the tracklisting in full:</p>

<p>Ciccone Youth (Sonic Youth) &amp;lsquo;Two Cool Rock Chicks Listening to Neu!&amp;rsquo;</p>

<p>Primal Scream &amp;lsquo;Shoot Speed / Kill Light&amp;rsquo;</p>

<title>Jay-Z refutes Noel team-up</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>taragana.com - LONDON - Jay-Z has refuted reports that he will be teaming up with former Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher in near future.</p>

<p>The rapper clarified that his comments about a possible project were misinterpreted.</p>

<p>&amp;ldquo;It was an offhand comment, someone asked me if I would work with him. I don&amp;rsquo;t have any problem, so I said anything is possible,&amp;rdquo; the Daily Express quoted him as saying.</p>

<p>He added: &amp;ldquo;It&amp;rsquo;s not like we had any talks of doing it, it&amp;rsquo;s like someone asked me would you work with him, I said &amp;lsquo;Yeah, I don&amp;rsquo;t have any problem with it&amp;rsquo;.&amp;rdquo;</p>

<p>Gallagher had criticized the organizers of the U.K.&amp;rsquo;s Glastonbury festival last year for bringing in Jay-Z to play in the rock n&amp;rsquo; roll festival.

<title>Liam's night in Berkhamsted</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>hemeltoday.co.uk - Superstar Liam Gallagher donned the yellow shirt of Berkhamsted Football Club for one night only.</p>

<p>The former Oasis front man played in an exhibition match in front of more than 200 people at an evening to raise money for the club, which was only formed a matter of months ago.</p>

<p>The game was played between employees of the club's main sponsor Stoneforce and those of Arcadia, on Wednesday.</p>

<p>Stoneforce managing director Paul Smith said: "Because we fitted out Liam's house, a few of the lads mentioned we were having a game and he was saying 'yeah I'll play'."</p>

<title>Oasis'  &acirc;&#128;&#152;13-yr lap of honor'</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>thesun.co.uk - ROBBIE WILLIAMS has taken another pop at his old rivals OASIS.</p>

<p>The singer, back after three years out, says he thinks LIAM and NOEL GALLAGHER are better off apart.</p>

<p>Robbie says: "Originally I thought they'd inevitably get back together because they are the band.</p>

<p>"But reading between the lines, they're both really stubborn so I don't think they will. To be honest, I know there's history between us and this isn't very complimentary, but they've been doing a lap of honour for the past 13 years. There's been the occasional gem here and there, The Importance Of Being Idle, and, well, that's about it."
Fairly harsh words from the man who was made an honorary member of Oasis when he quit TAKE THAT. It came after Robbie spent a "lost" summer hanging out with Noel and Liam after meeting them at Glastonbury in 1995.</p>

<p>Last night Liam was spotted giving a homeless Big Issue seller 50 quid outside a pub in Hampstead, north London.</p>

<p>Deep down, he's a big softy.</p>

<title>Kasabian deny Gallagher rumors</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>google.com - Kasabian have denied Noel Gallagher is joining the band following his split from Oasis.</p>

<p>Lead singer Tom Meighan said: "I'd like him to but he's not going to - he's just quit his band, he's putting music aside for a bit."</p>

<p>However, he said if Noel wanted to join them for a concert he would be more than welcome.</p>

<title>Liam's post-Xmas plans-Part 2</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>live4ever.us - "Maybe After Christmas, we'll Start Banging out Some Tunes"   . . . continued</p>

<p>His short-term future, he says, is "Pretty Green all the way. Relaxing at home, just getting out of the music for a bit and then gonna start up maybe after January, do something, see where it goes. Not Oasis. Something else. But having a breather from the music for a bit without a doubt. I'm always gonna miss Oasis. It was my f**king thing, you know what I mean? It's who I am. But it's only a name. I'm still who I am and I can go and do something else. I've got music in me. I'll never leave it behind but we'll see where it goes. It might be s**te but you don't know until you try."</p>

<p>He will give me no more specific clues as to his future in the music industry, but states repeatedly that he will get back into it in the new year and that it "won't be Oasis" and he won't go solo.</p>

<p>"Getting away from the whole Oasis thing is gonna be a good thing I suppose," he says. "Don't wanna do anything solo, it's not my thing. I want to be in a band. But we can do things a lot differently these days. Who knows man, but it'll definitely be rock'n'roll."</p>

<p>Is this an opportunity, I wonder, for him to try something a little different, to explore a new avenue? "Without a doubt. But at the moment instead of going straight into it I think we definitely need a breather from people's heads cos it's a big thing, Oasis, so that needs to be put to bed and let people get used to it and obviously let us get used to it. But I think what comes from it could be f**king pretty cool. You don't just turn s**t overnight."</p>

<p>Given the apparent openness of his personality, his restraint is admirable. I get the impression that he might reveal more were Steve not sitting nearby. He can, however, always be counted upon for a barb or two about the brother with whom he has been bickering for three decades. While the relationship has always been a tempestuous one, today they rarely speak. Before the split they were travelling separately and only met up on stage. To describe the relationship as strained would be an understatement.</p>

<p>"I gave him some (Pretty Green] stuff out of courtesy. And he took it." Liam's tone is one of incredulous outrage. "Which pissed me off cos he should have threw it back in me face cos we weren't talking. But he f**king took it and he probably put it in the bin."</p>

<p>He pauses, annoyed. He's wound up now, and on a roll. He continues: "He probably wears it round his house when his missus is out. Soon as she comes back in he probably takes it off cos he's not allowed cos he's under the f**king thumb." He sticks his fist out and points his thumb down petulantly, like an unimpressed Roman emperor.</p>

<p>With the exception of this one rant however, he seems calm, unmoved by the recent dramas, and insists that he's had very little time to turn his thoughts to it all. He's in the process of moving house, which is taking up most of his time, his children have started back at school after the summer, and his beloved Man City are doing well, "which is taking the heat off". If he is fazed by the drama or worried about the future, he isn't showing it.</p>

<p>The wound, perhaps, is still so fresh that he hasn't yet fully processed things or decided how to proceed. Like a difficult marriage that's spanned nearly two decades before coming to an abrupt end, the journey with Oasis has been all-consuming, and I can't blame him for being unclear on how he will move on with his life.</p>

<p>When I ask him if Pretty Green will be his main focus in the long-term, his answer is firm: "No." Then he quickly changes his mind. "It is, yeah, just like the music though. Music and the clothes without a doubt."</p>

<p>Will music take a back seat? "No way man. You don't just stop making music overnight. We're having a bit of time off. Or I am. You know we're doing the Pretty Green stuff and then maybe after Christmas, we'll start banging out some tunes. And it won't be Oasis and it will be something else. You don't just do 18 years of music and then go, 'Right that's it I want to do f**king clothes.' There's no point in looking cool and having no tunes either is there"?</p>

<title>Liam's post-Xmas plans-Part 1</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>live4ever.us - "Maybe After Christmas, we'll Start Banging out Some Tunes"
I wonder how Liam Gallagher might have responded if, a decade ago, he was told that in 2009 he would be giving an interview in which the journalist had been specifically instructed not to ask him about Oasis. It is, after all, the band which defined 1990s Britpop and, in the public's eyes, defines Liam Gallagher.</p>

<p>And, after 18 years, it is no more. On 28 August this year, Liam Gallagher had the latest in a long line of fights with his older brother and fellow band member, Noel, just minutes before the band was due to go on stage in Paris, and the gig was cancelled. Two hours later a statement from Noel appeared on the band's website: "It's with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight &amp;hellip; I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer." There has been very little since by way of an explanation, or hints as to what either Gallagher might do next.</p>

<p>Today I'm meeting Liam for a drink in his local boozer in Hampstead on the premise that I am not to ask him any questions about Oasis, Noel or the split. So what exactly can we talk about? The answer is the Oasis frontman's clothing line, Pretty Green, which he developed this year alongside British tailor Nick Holland, of Holland Esquire fame.</p>

<p>Named after a song Paul Weller wrote for The Jam, which was recently reprised by Mark Ronson ("I've got a pocket full of pretty green, I'm gonna put it in the fruit machine&amp;hellip;") and initially released in June, it comprises casual menswear pieces including hats, T-shirts and scarves. The premium line, which includes more classic, grown-up designs in silk and cashmere is released at the end of this month and will be stocked in Cruise in Edinburgh and Glasgow.</p>

<p>It's difficult to know how to approach an interview with Liam Gallagher. The 37-year-old father of three (he is married to All Saints singer Nicole Appleton) is one of those people whom it's difficult to imagine in real life. His public image is so cartoonish that it seems impossible that he maintains it when he's having a pint down his local.</p>

<p>His own brother describes him thus: "He's rude, arrogant, intimidating and lazy. He's the angriest man you'll ever meet. He's like a man with a fork in a world of soup." Still, I rationalise, there's only so much rock star behaviour you can get away with when you're promoting a clothing line.</p>

<p>I needn't have worried. Sitting across from me in a dimly-lit corner of The Garden Gate pub, Liam doesn't smile. A hint of a smile doesn't pass his lips once over the course over the interview, yet he is friendly, polite, accommodating, even warm. He jokes, he asks me questions, but is always unsmiling, to the extent that I find myself wondering if he's ever smiled. He's a serious man, but there are no hints of the petulant child his brother has described, or of the lairy troublemaker he has been portrayed as in the media.</p>

<p>"Obviously I've got kids and you know, just took me foot off the gas a little bit," he says by way of an explanation. "I've definitely chilled out. A lot of people sort of get scared&amp;hellip;" he switches into mock hard man mode, jutting out his chin and mumbling as if he's picking a fight, before waving a hand dismissively. "I've definitely changed, I think for the better."</p>

<p>He is handsome in person, shorter than he seems on stage, and looks relaxed, fit and healthy. These days, he gets up at the crack of dawn to go for a run around Hampstead Heath. He does the school run every day. And, perhaps most shocking of all, today he is sipping mineral water. He is sharply dressed in a Pretty Green parka and jeans, his hair is cropped. He looks stylish, if a little stuck in 1995. But then the younger Gallagher brother has always been obsessed with clothes.</p>

<p>"It's just as important as the music for me. Yeah man," he says, taking a gulp of water. "You can write a decent tune, but if you look like a d***, that doesn't cut it with me, you know what I mean? There's plenty of bands I've heard and I've gone, 'F**king hell if they look good man, if they look cool then we're over.' Then you see them on the TV and go, 'Thank f**k; they look s**t.' If you look good and you've got the tunes then you're away man."</p>

<p>Critics of Oasis have observed that the band has stuck resolutely to a musical style &amp;ndash; one heavily influenced by the past and by artists such as The Stone Roses, Paul Weller and The Beatles &amp;ndash; refusing to change or to move with the times.</p>

<p>Critics of the clothing line might say the same thing. Much like his approach to music, Liam clearly knows what he likes and likes what he knows.</p>

<p>Where 15 years ago, young men copied Oasis in bucket hats, parkas and Clarks wallaby shoes, today they want skinny jeans, skinny shirts, skinny ties and pointy shoes, an aesthetic which Gallagher describes as "a disease" and refuses to pander to, preferring to channel the mid-90s &amp;ndash; with parkas and bucket hats.</p>

<p>However Pretty Green has been selling well, with some pieces (the parka included) selling out almost instantly. Its website crashed seconds after it was launched, such was the interest from fans, and the premium line has been well-received by buyers. Martin Lacey, the buying director at Cruise describes it as "a fantastic first collection surpassing all levels of expectation".</p>

<p>"Pretty Green brings a whole new look to the market that could match any mainline brand for quality, attention to detail and design," he says. "Unlike previous celebrity collaborations, it can stand the test of time and stand up in its own right."</p>

<p>Certainly Gallagher is an unlikely figure in the fashion world. He has been to a fashion show once before, he tells me, with his ex-wife Patsy Kensit, "and I nearly threw up. It's not my thing. Sipping champagne and talking s**te? They're only clothes aren't they, really, at the end of the day."</p>

<p>He's a showman. He holds court physically, gesticulating, shuffling around in his seat and occasionally leaping up to emphasise a point. When I remark upon the ponyskin shoes he's wearing today, he jumps to his feet, planting one foot on the low table and flinging his arms out in a pose that seems to ask me to come and have a go if I think I'm 'ard enough, not, as is the case, to admire his cheetah-print loafers more closely.</p>

<p>"These are Yves Saint Laurent," he says proudly, pronouncing every consonant, "and these are the nuts. You want to see the reaction when I take the kids to school in these. They're just like, 'Woah your dad's got Flintstones shoes on!'"</p>

<p>I ask him about Scotland, where Oasis were first signed back in 1993 after Creation Records co-owner Alan McGee saw them perform at King Tut's Wah Wah Hut in Glasgow. "Scotland's f**king cool man I love it," he says, leaning forward in his seat. "The crowds up there are top. People are always cool and you know how to drink. You don't know how to drink as much as me but&amp;hellip; nice people. I don't know about the Mars Bar thing, though." He shakes his head ominously at the thought of tackling a deep-fried Mars Bar, before gesturing at his manager who's sitting at a nearby table eating chips.</p>

<p>"What did we try up there Steve, with cheese? What the f**k was it? It was like f**king loads of mad s**t, chips and gravy with cheese on it wannit?" Steve shrugs, his mouth full of chips and Liam looks at me incredulously, as if asking me to account for my country's bizarre dietary habits.</p>

<p>He leans back repeatedly, knocking his head on a fringed lampshade behind him. He sits with his knees as far apart as possible and swats distractedly at a fly. I ask him about fame. He has been one of the most recognisable faces in British music for his whole adult life, after all. His eyebrows furrow.</p>

<p>"Fame means nothing to me. It means that people have seen you on TV or whatever. I'm in a&amp;hellip;" at this point he pauses and abruptly corrects himself; "I was in a band who made music and that was it. Fame is just a f**king disease."
