Liam Gallagher slams brother Noel for Manchester gig no-show
Written by News on 05/06/2017
Liam Gallagher has slammed his "sad f***" brother Noel for not attending the One Love Manchester tribute show on Sunday.
The former Oasis singer made a surprise appearance at Ariana Grande’s concert and performed Live Forever with Coldplay’s Chris Martin.
The show, which brought together stars including Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Take That and The Black Eyed Peas, was held almost two weeks after the Manchester bombing, to remember the 22 people killed.
While an Oasis reunion was rumoured for the estimated 50,000 fans at the concert, older brother Noel was out of the country and couldn’t attend.
"Noels out of the f****** country weren’t we all love get on a f****** plane and play your tunes for the kids you sad f***"," Liam wrote to his brother on Twitter on Monday morning.
"That’s the reunion out of the window then haha," one user replied.
"F*** the reunion mate it ain’t about oasis it’s about people helping other people and he’s once again shown his true f****** colours," Liam said.

Liam had already downplayed plans of an Oasis reunion during a recent question and answer session, saying the prospect of working with Noel "bores the death" out of him.
"No. It ain’t happening, mate. When I think about it, being in a band with him bores the death out of me. He’s changed, as a person. He’s not someone I want to be in a band with. He’s part of the establishment," he told a crowd.
"Because there have been plenty of times that it could have happened and it should have happened and it didn’t," he added.
"I’d like it to happen, because I miss him and I miss the band and I miss the fans and I miss singing them songs. But it’s in the lap of the gods, not Noel Gallagher, as much as he’d like to think he’s a bit of a god, but he ain’t. Because I’ve seen him coming for years."
Liam has just released his first solo single Wall Of Glass and is expected to release his debut album As You Were in October.
Sunday’s benefit raised £2m for the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund, bringing the total amount to £10m.
"Manchester id like to apologise for my brothers absence last night," Liam said in one of his post-show tweets.
"Very disappointed stay beautiful stay safe LG x."
