Liam Gallagher: 'Noel isn't that good without me'
Published Friday, Nov 4 2011, 09:40 GMT | By Mayer Nissim | 4 comments
Liam Gallagher has said that his brother Noel is not as good without him.
The singer formed new band Beady Eye after Noel walked out on Oasis in 2009.
Noel has since started a solo career and released debut album Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds last month.
"I'm sure we're gonna get back together," Liam told The Independent. "Noel's got to do his solo thing - and realise he's not that good without his younger brother.
"And then, 2015, the Morning Glory 20th anniversary tour. It was him that started the idea and now he's saying he's not up for it, but I am. If the people want it, then the people will get it."
Liam had previously refused to rule out an Oasis reunion but said that there was "no f**king chance" of it happening imminently.

Last month, he added: "In 2015, if we can put our s**t aside, we can tour and play the album [(What's The Story) Morning Glory?] in its entirety for the 20th anniversary.
"I'd be up for that, if it's on our terms. There's got to be two-way respect."
In response, Noel said that Liam has his "permission to go and play" the album, but added: "I left that band for a reason and that reason still stands."
Of his fashion label Pretty Green and other projects, Liam said: "I may have been under Noel's cloud a little bit too much. I've always wanted to do more than just sing other people's songs.
"If we get back together, it'll be a great trip down memory lane. But it's not the only road that's open to me anymore."
