When Noel plays the outro in Morning Glory like this:
And many other things that you've already mentioned.

I think Noel once said that he would do the same, if he had no money. Yes. He said something like that in the interview I posted.

Noel talks about it in this interview from 2009 if I remember correct. Can't remember in which part, though.

Yes…
So, been out of the game for a couple of days AGAIN!!
Here goes… What day is it today? …Friday? Saturday? Fuck knows.
The last time we spoke I was in Sydney, right? Just getting ready for The Big Day Out?
Well… Woke up that morning and guess what? That's right, it was pissing down… I mean what IS the point of Australia while it's raining? There is no point. I'm staggered by the weather. "Oh, fuck off!" to the sky, said I.
'Twas a big day for the Aussies. Australia Day. It's a day where they celebrate all things Australian… Whatever that means. Still part of the blimmin' Empire, if you ask me, innit? Sydney Harbour was full of boats and ships. Spectacular. There was cannons going off and even a fly past by the Aussie air force (mate!)... IN THE RAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!
There was a bit of a scene with the Aussie PM (some ginger Sheila). She got a bit roughed up by some protesters and had to be bundled into a car that looked like a taxi. Thing is, she lost one of her shoes!! Like Cinderella!! The news went in heavy on the protesters… (What a scandal… No… Not sandal… They didn't make it clear what style of shoe it was!!!)
By the time I got down to the festival site to continue my battle of wits with the Aussie media (mate), Kasabian had been and gone!! Heard they were good though.
My gig was really bloody good (mate). Had a pair of ladies knickers thrown on stage and a top hat!! I do hope they came from the same person!!
Legged it early the next day and arrived here in Melbourne (mate). And guess what? No… You're wrong see, because it's bloody boiling (mate). Yes sir!! The sun has got his hat on, and it's got little corks dangling round the rim!!
They still have that Jerry Springer on TV down here. Forgot how psychedelic that programme is. There was a threesome on it called… "Sha-toya" and "Jo-neesa" and a guy whose name was "Country". Mega. I laughed until it wasn't funny anymore.
So then I stopped and turned on the news. Turns out the big story building was about "the shoe".
"Where is the PM's shoe?" They asked. "Who's got the shoe?" They pleaded. "We must find the shoe!!".
Had a bit of a mooch around and about (didn't find the shoe). Not much going on here, but by the time I got back to the hotel THE SHOE HAD BEEN FOUND!!!!!!!!!!!!
There was a brilliant Monty Python-esque moment were they went live to the actual shoe being handed over to the authorities by what looked like a protester…
"There you go Cinders, you shall go to the ball," I thought.
Except she didn't. She went to the tennis. To see Andy Murray lose… AGAIN!!!
ONWARDS.
GD.
PS: Dunno what all the fuss was about. The shoe was bobbins. A black suede wedge?? Not this season...(mate).

"www.NoelGallagher.com announce that Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds will be augmented on the forthcoming tour of the UK and Ireland by a three-piece brass section and the choirs Crouch End Festival Chorus and Hertfordshire Chorus."
Mega!

Yes…
Made it to New Zealand. Auckland, to be exact. It's summer time!!!
The sun's out. Loud and proud. Twas a fuckin' slog yesterday though. Sleep deprivation is a killer.
Some girl comes up to me at the airport in Japan. She was pregnant. She says to me, "Can you touch my stomach and bless my baby?" Sorry? "Please touch my stomach and bless my baby." Ok… there you go, kid… consider yourself blessed. Then she says… "Please can you name my baby?" What? "Please name my baby." What now?? Right now?? "Yes please." Ok… Is it a boy or a girl? "Oh, I don't know yet!!" Jeez... Meet me half way, eh??
Anyway, the flight was ok. Got some kip at least. The jet lag's not too bad when you get this far around the world. Feeling back to normal.
I haven't been to NZ since 1997. I have no recollection of it at all! My tour manager informed me I may have had an impromptu sing song round a piano in a hotel bar with that singer Joe Cocker!! I don't remember that at all!! Scary, eh?
Looking forwards to the gig tomorrow. My first festival of the year. Kasabian are on the bill so it should be a blast.
ONWARDS.
GD.

Yes… So did some mad Japanese breakfast TV show yesterday. It was bizarre to say the least. Hosted by a female comedian… what do you call them again, comedienne, or summat? Anyways, the interview went like what they do… the usual Q's followed by the usual A's when out of nowhere and without warning (actually there may have been a warning… hard to tell over here!) she starts singing that song by Mariah Carey (or is it Dolly Parton?), "I Will Always Love You"!!!!! She wasn't holding back either, she fuckin' belted it out. So she sings a chorus and a verse and the big fuck off ending… then… silence… Not so much as a titter from the studio audience… Nothing… I FUCKIN' LOVE THIS COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!!! The actual gig was really very good. Not only was it shocking to get back up to speed so quick, it was right up there with the best so far! My new biggest fan, that little girl was there again. She had the same clothes on (stinky little fish!!). She reiterated that she is indeed quite fond of me while holding up a letter for me like a religious artefact… strange kid. Gotta go. I've been up since 4.30am and I'm still running late… How can that be? ONWARDS. GD.

The fact that they never brought a mellotron on tour with them, or the fact that liam gave up singing wonderwall acoustically in 1996! Imagine how immense he would've sounded! They had a Memotron, though. Good enough and way more portable.

I like the second one more, to be honest. It was a long time since I listened to it, though.

Seriously...who is he? Is no one going to say? He have a band called Porcupine Tree I think. And many other projects.

I think he sang "She rings the bell for all the little queers" in Lyla a couple of times. Or am I horrible wrong?

I think both The Soundtrack Of Our Lives and Mando Diao will release a new album next year. Very much looking forward to that. And of course the second album from Beady Eye and Noel Gallagher. I hope SULK get to release a full length album next year. They have very good potential to be a very great band. I love their two singles, who came out this year.
Miles Kane's album is gonna be great too. I really liked his first solo album. Isn't time for a new album from Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, too?
And then we have one guy called Thåström here in Sweden who gonna release a new album, and Kent is going to come out with a new album. They sing on swedish, so that's nothing for the english people to look forward to, though.
Looks like it's gonna be a great year for music next year too!

its only worth buying if you have a blu ray player. the picture quality and sound are worth an upgrade though. lots of film grain I found the blu ray version for a good price so that's why I'm considering buying it, even though I don't have a blu ray player. Yet. Thanks for your opinion!

got the blu ray, its awesome. the commentary is the best thing about it. wish they would have included the full manchester concert though, the only fault. Is the blu-ray worth buying? I have the dvd version already.

I think I've found Noel's "moves" he can do on stage. He should do this on NGHFB's tour. Haha! Maybe I'm tired but I got me a good laugh.
He starts doing the "moves" at 3:05 and forward.
