Liam Gallagher claims brother Noel ‘blocked’ Oasis song at Taylor Hawkins tribute gig
He’s looking back in anger.
Former Oasis frontman, Liam Gallagher, claims his ongoing feud with brother Noel recently got only more bitter when he “blocked” him from playing the band’s song at a tribute concert honoring the late Taylor Hawkins.
Hawkins, who was the band’s drummer since 1997, died in March due to a cardiovascular collapse at the age of 50 in a Colombian hotel where multiple drugs were found.
The surviving members of Foo Fighters were joined by a star-studded array of performers, including Gallagher, as they all took to the stage at London’s Wembley Stadium last month.
But the decades-long feud between brothers Liam and Noel seems to have gotten in the way of the tribute gig, as Liam claimed his brother didn’t let him sing the Oasis song he really wanted to.
Taking to Twitter Wednesday, the singer fumed, “No oasis songs as the angry squirt has blocked them he also blocked the oasis I sang for Taylor Hawkins tribute he’s a horrible little man.”
In a follow-up tweet, he wrote, “You can stop us using the songs but you can’t erase our memories shame on you Noel Gallagher.”
It’s not clear which song Liam claims he was “blocked” from performing.
The tribute opened with Liam performing his band’s “Rock ‘n’ Roll Star” and “Live Forever,” backed by the Foo Fighters with frontman Dave Grohl on drums, Pat Smear and Chris Shiflett on guitar, and Nate Mendel on bass.
Other musicians who joined the tribute were Blink-182’s Travis Barker, The Darkness’ Rufus Tiger Taylor, Wolfgang Van Halen, and Grohl’s daughter Violet.
