I’d just sit Putin down, and say, ‘Look, little guy – alright mate? What seems to be the problem?… What would you do if I taught you to play guitar?

Liam Gallagher and John Squire eye up Number One single as they share ‘Just Another Rainbow’ remix

Liam Gallagher and John Squire have shared a remix of their debut single ‘Just Another Rainbow’, which is vying for Number One this week.Officially announced last month after months of teasing – with Gallagher hailing their upcoming record as “the best record since [The Beatles’] ‘Revolver’” – the first taster of the project from the former Oasis frontman and Stone Roses guitarist arrived last week (January 5) in the form of ‘Just Another Rainbow’.With the pair set to go on tour and with a full album ready to go, they have now enlisted psych band Looking Glass Alice to give the track a woozy remix, which you can hear below.‘Just Another Rainbow’ is also on track to top the UK singles chart this week, with Official Charts revealing that it is currently on top spot in the midweek charts.Reviewing the debut single, NME said: “The tune itself is the least shocking part of the endeavour – but that doesn’t make it any less intriguing. ‘Just Another Rainbow’ isn’t quite fan-service, but the duo are certainly playing to their strengths: Liam’s vocals are full ‘Mind Games’-era Lennon, and Squire’s skills as a guitarist are given room to shine on a song that’s in a more familiar territory for the latter than the former.

Liam Gallagher says Noel turned down offer to take part in ‘Definitely Maybe’ tour

Liam Gallagher has claimed that Noel Gallagher turned down the opportunity to take part in the upcoming ‘Definitely Maybe’ tour.News of the UK tour was announced yesterday (October 16) and confirmed that Liam would be hitting the road to celebrate 30 years of Oasis’ debut album ‘Definitely Maybe’.The live shows follow on from an update shared by the singer earlier this year in which he reflected on the milestone and teased fans by saying that he was looking for a way to play the 1994 album in full.Liam continued to tease the prospect, later announcing that he’d be playing “naughty” B-sides from the era too as well ‘Half The World Away’ sung by his brother, former bandmate and Oasis’ chief songwriter, Noel.However unfortunately for fans it looks like his brother and ex-bandmate has no intention of taking part in the upcoming tour. The live shows will instead be more of a solo venture for Liam.This news came when Liam took to X (formerly Twitter) earlier today (October 17) to confirm that he offered his brother the chance to participate in the Oasis tour but that no plans ever materialised.“He’s been asked and he’s refused,” he wrote, responding to a fan who asked when he was going to announce Noel’s involvement in the tour.He’s been asked and he’s refused— Liam Gallagher (@liamgallagher) October 17, 2023The 12-date ‘Definitely Maybe 30 Years’ UK and Ireland tour will kick off in Sheffield on June 2 before making stops in Cardiff, Glasgow and Dublin.Three dates at London’s O2 venue are also planned, as are three in his hometown of Manchester, held at the Co-Op Live venue.“I’m bouncing around the house to announce the ‘Definitely Maybe’ Tour,” he said at the time.
