According to The Mirror, the Oasis guitarist agreed to perform with the Liverpudlian band at the London Coliseum after a night of drinking.
However, he later found out that he was supposed to be on holiday outside of the UK with wife Sara MacDonald on the same day.
"Noel got his days mixed up," said a source. "He called last week to check what day the gig was and then said, 'S***, I'm in France with the missus'. He was gutted."
Ex-Lightning Seeds frontman Ian Broudie stood in for the rocker during the band's Greatest Hits show.
Last year, Gallagher performed with the indie band during their set at the BBC Electric Proms.
