Liam Gallagher sues Noel Gallagher
August 19th, 2011 - 7:37 pm ICT by Aishwarya BhattLondon, Aug 19 (THAINDIAN NEWS) A legal battle has ensued between brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher. For claiming that his brother’s drunkenness caused the cancellation of the Oasis’ 2009 headline performance at the 2009 V Festival in Essex, Noel has been sued at the High Court.
Liam is not taking the new allegations lying down. The comments were made last month during a press conference to promote the first solo album of Noel. Liam issued a statement shortly after filing the court action against his brother.
The statement said that, “I am used to being called all sorts of things by Noel and I have in the past said things about him. But what Noel has alleged this time went way beyond the rock-and-roll banter and questioned my professionalism… All I want is an apology.”
The relationship between the two brothers has been anything but cordial. The two split in 2009 when the tension reached a boiling point. Their split was one of the biggest in the music industry.
The relationship between the two brothers has not gotten any better. During Noel’s wedding to Sara McDonald earlier this year, Liam was notably absent from the event. A date is yet to be set for the hearing of the case.
