Editing Liam Gallagher (section)

===Relationship with Noel Gallagher===
During Oasis's American tour in 1994, Liam frequently changed the words of Noel's songs so that they were offensive to both Americans and Noel. In September 1994, Oasis played at the [[Whisky a Go Go]] in [[Los Angeles]]. The day of the show Oasis had been using [[methamphetamine]] that they believed was [[cocaine]]. The band made several mistakes and tensions arose on stage between Liam and Noel, eventually leading to Liam hitting Noel in the head with his tambourine. After the show, Noel shortly left the tour and went to [[San Francisco]].<ref name=":0" /><ref>{{Cite web|date=3 January 2020|title=The worst Oasis gig ever: Crystal meth at The Whisky-A-Go-Go in 1994|url=https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/oasis-liam-gallagher-noel-gallagher-whisky-a-go-go-1994-la/|access-date=13 July 2020|website=[[Far Out Magazine]]|archive-date=13 July 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200713121136/https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/oasis-liam-gallagher-noel-gallagher-whisky-a-go-go-1994-la/|url-status=live}}</ref>

During the 1995 recording sessions for ''[[(What's the Story) Morning Glory?]]'', the brothers had a fight when Liam invited everyone from a local pub back to the studio, while Noel was trying to work, culminating in Noel hitting Liam over the head with a cricket bat. Noel later described this event as "possibly the biggest fight we ever had".<ref>''Definitely Maybe'' DVD Interview.</ref><ref name=":0" />

In August 1996, after a record-breaking [[Concerts at Knebworth House|pair of shows at Knebworth]], tension mounted between the Gallaghers when Liam backed out of Oasis's ''[[MTV Unplugged]]'' set minutes before it was due to start. Noel was forced to fill in at the last minute. Liam said that he had been struck down with a "sore throat" and that he does not like performing acoustically, though Noel has claimed he was [[hungover]].<ref>Noel Interview on ''MTV Unplugged – Behind The Scenes''</ref> Noel was further angered when Liam heckled him from the balcony while the band performed.<ref name=":3">{{Cite web |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJSJ7ZQshrI&feature=youtu.be&t=236 |title=BBC 2 Zoe Ball Breakfast Show |website=[[YouTube]] |date=11 June 2020 |access-date=13 July 2020 |archive-date=13 July 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200713122543/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJSJ7ZQshrI&feature=youtu.be&t=236 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref name=":4">{{Cite web |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJanARjwq6g |title=The Chris Moyles Show on Radio X |website=[[YouTube]] |date=15 June 2020 |access-date=13 July 2020 |archive-date=1 August 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200801000102/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJanARjwq6g |url-status=live }}</ref> Four days after, Noel was again forced to fill in for Liam on the first show of their American tour, when Liam refused to travel to America with the rest of the band claiming he needed time to buy a house. He was back on stage with Oasis for their next show three days later in [[Detroit]]. Tension between Noel and the rest of the band mounted and Noel left the tour, causing several media outlets to question the future of the band.

While on tour in [[Barcelona]] in May 2000, Oasis were forced to cancel a show when drummer Alan White's arm seized up; the band spent the evening drinking instead. During the night Liam made a crude remark about Noel's wife, Meg Mathews (apparently questioning the legitimacy of Noel's baby daughter [[Anaïs Gallagher|Anaïs]]), leading to a fight.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2009/aug/30/oasis-split-liam-noel-gallagher/|title=Born to feud: how years of animosity finally split Oasis boys|newspaper=[[The Observer]]|date=30 August 2009|access-date=28 November 2011|location=London|first=Gareth|last=Grundy|archive-date=2 October 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131002210036/http://www.theguardian.com/music/2009/aug/30/oasis-split-liam-noel-gallagher|url-status=live}}</ref> Following this, a press release was put out declaring that Noel had decided to quit overseas touring with Oasis.

In 2009, prior to the group's break, Noel called Liam "rude, arrogant, intimidating, and lazy", describing him as "the angriest man you'll ever meet ... like a man with a fork in a world of soup".<ref>{{cite news|url=http://news.qthemusic.com/2009/04/noel_no_new_oasis_album_for_fi.html|title=Noel: no new Oasis album for five years?|work=[[qthemusic.com]]|access-date=9 March 2012|date=21 April 2009|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130130190718/http://news.qthemusic.com/2009/04/noel_no_new_oasis_album_for_fi.html|archive-date=30 January 2013}}</ref> The final straw for the band came at [[Rock En Seine]] in [[Paris]], when an altercation between the brothers (subsequently described by Noel as "no physical violence but there was a lot of [[World Wrestling Federation]] stuff") prior to their performance resulted in the destruction of Noel's guitar and saw him announce his departure from the group.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nme.com/news/noel-gallagher/57811|title=Noel Gallagher on Oasis split: 'Liam nearly took my face off with a guitar'|work=NME|date=6 July 2011|access-date=9 March 2012|archive-date=15 March 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120315065934/http://www.nme.com/news/noel-gallagher/57811|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="paris">{{cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/music/rockandpopfeatures/6128065/Oasis-v-the-Beatles-we-wont-look-back-in-wonder.html|title=Oasis v the Beatles: we won't look back in wonder|newspaper=The Daily Telegraph|date=2 September 2009|access-date=9 March 2012|location=London|first=Neil|last=McCormick|archive-date=2 March 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120302154629/http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/music/rockandpopfeatures/6128065/Oasis-v-the-Beatles-we-wont-look-back-in-wonder.html|url-status=live}}</ref> Liam later claimed he "messed the first one up" when questioned about his 2019 MTV Unplugged performance and has since claimed he missed the show because he "accidentally got drunk again".<ref name=":3" /><ref name=":4" />

Liam has stated he does not speak much with Noel and that they "don't really have a relationship". During the final tour, the only time that they ever spoke directly was when onstage.<ref name="paris" /> Noel would later reveal that while they were in Oasis, the two "never hung out together outside of the band, ever".<ref>{{cite web|first=Chuck|last=Klosterman|author-link=Chuck Klosterman|url=https://grantland.com/features/noel-gallagher-oasis/|title=Noel Gallagher After Oasis|publisher=[[Grantland]]|date=20 September 2011|access-date=2 May 2020|archive-date=29 June 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200629111948/https://grantland.com/features/noel-gallagher-oasis/|url-status=live}}</ref> Since the band's split, the only direct contact they have had with each other has consisted of exchanging text messages at Christmas; Liam also invited Noel to his wedding, which was scheduled to take place in 2021, but did not believe Noel would attend.<ref>Liam on [[Jonathan Ross]]' show, 2019</ref> When speaking to Sky News, Noel denied any invitation being received and remarked that as he was not invited to Liam's previous weddings "I'm not going to go to this one, am I?".<ref>{{Cite web |title="I ain't hiding this pretty face": Liam Gallagher talks postponing wedding to Debbie Gwyther |url=https://www.radiox.co.uk/artists/liam-gallagher/postponing-weding-debbie-gwyther-aint-hiding-face/ |access-date=12 June 2022 |website=Radio X}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Noel Gallagher: 'Me and Liam would've got nowhere without each other' |url=https://news.sky.com/story/noel-gallagher-me-and-liam-wouldve-got-nowhere-without-each-other-11841665 |access-date=12 June 2022 |website=Sky News}}</ref> Despite their constant fighting, the Gallaghers showed mutual affection before, during, and after their time in Oasis.
