Noel Gallagher Quits Oasis With “Great Relief” : Rolling Stone : Rock and Roll Daily
Noel Gallagher has announced he is to leave Oasis.
In a message on the band's website, the guitarist and songwriter 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 to the shows in Paris Konstanz and Milan."
The news comes after the band cancelled their second big festival show in the space of a week.
They were due to play tonight at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris. However, according to reports Noel and Liam were involved in a fight backstage minutes before they were scheduled to go on stage.
Last weekend Oasis pulled out of the V festival, with Liam reportedly suffering from viral laryngitis.
Noel's announcement follows months of speculation that the band might be splitting.
In an NME interview last week, Liam admitted that the pair weren't currently speaking, saying: "It takes more than blood to be my brother."
I KNOW YOUR ALL HAPPY
I'm gutted
