Noel was not in a band about CHICKENS!!! he was a roadie for the inspiral carpets!! Read any oasis biography and they will tell you this!! The NME review: The sound quality is good and the songs are characterised by what sounds like a 12-string acoustic guitar, over which an electric guitar picks out melodies. An organ provides simple basslines. On a number of occasions Noel can be heard laughing with a friend who may be Paul Bardsley. At this time, Noel was playing with him in a band, Fantasy Chicken And The Amateurs, though the group never appeared in public. At the end of a song called 'Have Fun!!' Noel can be heard laughing and exclaiming "awesome" and "phenomenal". you should probably get a better Biography mate. I'll do another one soon, have to find some easier questions!!!
