Noel Gallagher buys guns in LA

Noel Gallagher has been stocking up on guns for his new shooting hobby, reports The Mirror.

Gallagher, who is currently in Los Angeles recording the new Oasis record, has been texting Kasabian singer Tom Meighan to tell him about his new past-time.

Meighan said: "He sent me a text about going shooting in America, and about how scared he was of shooting himself.

"I've not heard from Noel in a while, so as soon as he's finished recording in LA it would be nice to meet up and find out what happened. He was going to get some guns and rifles I think. It was supposed to be a leisurely day out or hobby to get stuck into."

Gallagher was recently threatened with a knife by Grease star Jeff Conaway.

"I heard about that," said Meighan. "How mad is that, having Kenickie from Grease pull a knife out on you?"
