RonJonSurfer Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Gallagher Slams 'Boring' Radiohead & Coldplay Fans "I've mellowed, but not in the sense of liking Radiohead or Coldplay," he said. Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher has slammed fans of rival British rockers Radiohead and Coldplay - branding them "boring and ugly". The outspoken singer revealed he is cleaning up his act in preparation for his band's forthcoming world tour, which kicks off in the U.S. later this month. And although Gallagher is trying to calm down his hard-partying ways, he insists he isn't quite as mellow as his more reserved peers. He tells Britain's The Times newspaper, "I've mellowed, but not in the sense of liking Radiohead or Coldplay. I don't hate them. I don't wish they had accidents. "I think their fans are boring and ugly and they don't look like they're having a good time."

Tenacious_Peaches Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 I'm showing my age, but I swear I thought the title was refering to this Gallagher. I was wondering who the &^%$ he thought he was to be calling someone else ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skybluesky Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Holy frig I'm old too, because I was all "what does Radiohead have to do with smashing watermelons?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLizard Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 I never considered myself boring or ugly, but since Liam Gallagher says I am, I might be. It's kind of odd, considering that I'm sure I'm not the only fan of Radiohead and Coldplay who is also a fan of Oasis. Do the Gallaghers ever think before they spout off?

Levis Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 I love their spout-offs... most of the time, they're right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Liam's pretty much the only guy with an attitude like that who'd always get a from me Anyway... you should read the rest of the interview . He's quite a normal guy and well, that IS how a lot of people talk and think, only he doesn't hide it like most people in show business Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ombre Vivante Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 all fans are ugly and boring But Radiohead fans are special kind of ugly that sets them apart from the rest. clodplay fans are total shortbus material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ombre Vivante Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 lol @ you being in a position to "feel sorry for" anyone here. Son, don't try too hard to gauge what's clever. I was merely stating fact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Well Coldplay really sucks Oasis used to be a pretty decent listen now they suck real hard Radiohead is awesome and the band and the fans are quite ugly.

Viaene Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 imo Gallagher is just jealous because Radiohead never really got out of attention and kept making great music. Oasis didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 I thought it was the other way round Not like I keep up with Radiohead though. And they've been slagging off people at the height of their popularity too, so I wouldn't count on Liam just looking for attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Both bands just made more in downloads in the last few seconds than you both will make all year ... The pretend attitudes and opinions are just hype to sell records . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levis Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 But Liam and Noel really ARE like that. If not, it's incredibly good acting which makes me like them even more! (especially Noel who is brilliant ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
