This is the part where we impassioned madferits blame LG's gf for ruining Beady Eye when in reality we have absolutely no clue if she even played a factor in its demise. Pitchforks anyone?

I'm really curious to see what Liam does actually. I didn't love BDI but sad for those of you that did. Been a weird few years in LAG world. Bit of a rollercoaster I think. It's too bad that they had to fold on such a low note.
What's next for Liam? He's never done anything on his own fully. He'll probably need co-writer and collaborators to start with because he's never done a song top to bottom before. Noel said that Gem used to work with him a lot on Oasis and we know that LAG worked closely in BDI.
Can't imagine him doing a fully solo album like Noel with just session players in. Can't imagine him going out and finding a whole new band either. I can't imagine him just leaving music though. A collaboration album could be interesting. Getting a bunch of people in to work with you would be a pretty simple way to ensure diversity and new sounds. Liam and Friend, etc.
I'll bet Andy does some DJing and does a little tour with Ride in the next few years. Gem's a bit more difficult. I would bet he becomes a bit of session musician. He did some work with Weller in the past.
I think it would be nice if he did some stuff with Noel. I think he would be fine with taking a backseat to Noel in the songwriting arena and just concentrating on being a guitarist. Noel and him had good chemistry back in the day. Noel doesn't need an amazing guitarist, just one that gets his music and that he gets along with.
Plus it helps that Gem is as familiar with many of the tunes that Noel could pull out as anyone.

Must admit am shocked...just for the timing really, just seems so out the blue so to speak. However, considering how Liam had stopped following Andy and Gem/Lou etc after everything with Nicole happened, I felt it was only a matter of time. I wouldn't be surprised if tensions had grown within them all after the cheating came out and it's led to this He stopped following everyone on twitter - his account says he's following zero people, probably to look cool. Doubt it was personal when un-following those close to him.

I think Andy, Gem, and Chris were all blind sided. Judging by Lou Archer's tweets it definitely seems as if it came as a surprise to her and by extension Gem. Andy only tweeted I think over an hour after Liam tweeted. So his reaction wasn't that quick either. And there's no management left. I think Liam has to issue the statement if one is to be issued. It seems like he's the one who made the decision to leave on his own. So, he's the only person who could really speak on why he left. Maybe Andy was busy One of your livelihoods and your main project just folded, how busy would you be? The second Liam said that beady eye were done on Twitter, I'd be shocked if Andy didn't hear about it from someone within 5-10 minutes of it happening.

I mean I think Andy knew it, but maybe he was doing something else on that exact moment. Maybe he was doing the groceries or something, people have a life with stuff to do maybe that's why he only tweeted an hour later.

I feel sorry for Gem, Andy, Chris and Jay. Seem like nice lads and greaet musicians. Hope that they will find something to show us their talent again.

They should continue. Replace Liam with a picture of a horse's ass. Why let Liam dictate the terms? What has that poser ever brought to the orgy of greed and death that is big-time rock 'n' roll? Do they continue as Beady Eye or change their band name out of respect for Liam? Also, do they play Liam penned songs or only Andy/Gem written songs. These are million dollar questions eh?

exactly lou archer says Gem 'only found out the day before' so guessing Andy would've known at very least 24 hours before Just to be clear, didn't lou tweet that 'she' only found out yesterday? Seems she deleted it but before we all go get our pitchforks and chase Liam out of town couldn't it be possible that the lads talked about if for some time and finally decided it was time to end it the day before? At least that's what I want to believe. Hoping they all still get along as they seemed to be a great group of guys that had a truly fun time making music together. Maybe it just wasn't economically viable making another album and going on tour. We all know Liam has money (whatever will be left after the divorce and child support case), but I can see Andy, Gem, Jay, and Chris needing to do other things after two commercially unsuccesful albums and rather lackluster tours. They've all got families and kids to take care of.

i would predict a lot of stuff i due to her. Think she's the gold digger type? It's possible. She's okay sleeping with a married man. Just because she slept with a married man, doesn't mean she's some terrible person. Blame Liam, not her.

You are saying exactly what i said.. she said Gem knew the day before (so guess rest of band) the other person was implying that it be the first andy knew when liam tweeted?? Id say they'd have known or actually thought this was gonna the the outcome for the last 6 months at least if your trying to say the kept it 'secret from wives' then i don't think personally

Very odd doings in Gallagher land. First we have Noel actually announcing an album to be released in 5/6 months time preceded by a single and video even he himself writes off as being mediocre. Who has ever done either of these things? Then we have Liam out of the blue announcing BDI have split when Noel had claimed to have hung out with them a few nights prior and said they were doing fine and everything's peachy keen. He also says he and Liam are now good but that a reunion would be a big step backwards for everyone involved. My theory.......Liam is in panic mode. BE was supposed to BE the golden egg. All his hopes were pinned on that album. Classier songs, classy album cover, promotion aplenty.....everything was in place. BE was going to BE the big break out hit. Only it tanked. Fairly badly. Enough so that it was embarrassing. Very discouraging. Liam's big gambit had failed. Oasis is his last best hope now. BDI is never going to happen. They have to BE excised. Gotten rid of. Clear the decks and stop the clocks! Liam's trying to get Oasis back together. Noel will of course laugh at him. For now. They both know how this will end though. Noel supports the entire family. Has since 1994. That includes Liam. Liam know this and is fine with being a barely talented hack with the bread winner brother. He'll bide his time. He'll go solo. He'll make albums so awful they'll make Marc Bolan's post 72' stuff look good in comparison. Everyone will feel bad for him. Including Noel eventually. It's reunion on then. Noel can't be having the family name dragged down by his dumbass brother's solo records. " BEing Scottish carries with it certain responsibilities." Aye............. They're Irish, you useless prick. Comparing to his post , BE was a huge success

They've all got families and kids to take care of. No news of any fruit being involved, so I'm sure it was amicable! Seriously, it always came across to me they are a group of mates as well as being in bands together. I get the feeling Liam pulled the plug on it but it's really just speculation until we hear it from them.

Id say they'd have known or actually thought this was gonna the the outcome for the last 6 months at least if your trying to say the kept it 'secret from wives' then i don't think personally Definitely didn't mean to imply that was your opinion. Just wanted to clear up the "gem only found out yesterday" knowing how people have been jumping at the bit to cast out Liam as the evil mastermind breaking up yet another band and now leaving his friends behind. I agree, I doubt this was a rash decision. Probably been thinking about it since the end of the DGSS tour but didn't want to give up without giving it atleast one more try. Definitely don't think the wives been kept out of the loop, but guessing it's not something Lou or any of them are all that interested in sharing on twitter. I'm sure we'll all get to know more in the next couple of months via various sources and interviews with the members. The only reason I can even see for them to announce that BE is finished is either that the guy's have had a falling out, or that one or more have had to say yes to other commitments for financial reasons. Something I'm sure they wouldn't do if the band was successful and they felt like it had a bright future. I'm hoping and leaning more towards the latter.

It certainly doesn't mean she's a good person either. What it shows is that her moral gauge is at least slightly off. So it leaves me wondering if she truly likes Liam, or if she's with him for the money and status. It's not like this sort of thing is rare. People like to manipulate others for their own gain, it just happens. It's unfortunate, but it is very real. As for Liam, he's to blame, but he's only half of that choice. She is capable of making her own decisions is she not?

I wonder does Noel knows what happened. Funnily enough, we will probably hear from him first anything about it, since he's doing interviews now.

Shame as I'll never forget the buzz I got from the first few listens of Flick Of the Finger and Soon Comes Tomorrow. But every other song was awful IMO, so the split was a good thing in the end.
