So in reflection of this, it’s hardly unsurprising that little over eight weeks after they officially split, both Noel and Liam have both announced their future plans. By the look of things, they’ve both been kicked out by the women in their lives in order to make some money and stop causing a nuisance round the house.
Speaking to the nations best loved paper, the Daily Mail, Noel announced last week that he would be embarking on a solo career. Now, to some people Hull City still being in the Premiership is a shock. Or to others, the fact the Bruce Forthsyth has still got a full head of hair at the age of 81 is a shock. However, the fact that the older Gallagher is set to take on the world solo, isn’t.
Since the release of Definitely Maybe back in ’94 it’s been a case of when, not if Noel would ever release a solo record. He’s a fantastically gifted songwriter that has all the attributes to be equally as successful as he was in Oasis, on his own. He was quoted as saying that he’s looking forward to releasing his own music. And I think it’s pretty safe to say that we’re all looking forward to listening to it.
Now, just as Barry from Bradford used Noel’s interview in the Daily Mirror as chip paper, Liam has announced he’s got future music plans too. Now, everyone knows the difference between Liam and Noel in terms of song writing ability. So, with this in mind, I’m almost more intrigued to hear what Liam will produce. Noel will no doubt produce a solid performance that won't bring many surprises. However, Liam is different. He’s already gone on record saying that he’ll be recruiting a band to perform with. I think everybody expected this. You see, as good as Liam is as a front man, has he got all the necessary ingredients to take on the music world solo? Who knows? But what I do know is that he’s going to be delivering some big rock & roll badness.
