Liam Gallagher opens gob again

Liam Gallagher has criticised U2 for analysing live footage after gigs, telling Sydney's Daily Telegraph that he is the best rock'n'roll singer the country has had.

Talking of Liam Gallagher, the gobby Oasis frontman has followed those previously reported tirades against a variety of bands with yet another sweary polemic, this time directed at U2. Gallagher gave his response to a story he'd heard about the Irish rock group watching and analysing a video of a live show after they came off stage, telling Sydney's Daily Telegraph, "Wankers. Haven't they got fuck all better to do? I'd rather be out there getting pissed. I certainly wouldn't go back after a gig and analyse it. No wonder they're the biggest band in the world: 'Oh Edge, the fourth guitar solo wasn't right tonight'. 'Oh, sorry Bono'. If that's what people think rock'n'roll is ..."

Gallagher, fortunately did have some good words to say - about himself. He continued: "This is the best job in the world. It's even better when you're the best rock star. I'm the best fucking rock'n'roll singer this country's ever had."
