Liam Gallagher had a brutally sarcastic response to Noel's band having a scissors player

“I’m gonna have someone sharpening a pencil at my gig. It’s gonna proper blow people’s minds.”

YOU MIGHT HAVE seen earlier this week that Noel Gallagher, when appearing on Later with Jools Holland, had a member of his band playing the scissors.

Yes, the scissors. Into a microphone.

Those who’ve followed their relationship since the early days of Oasis know that Noel and Liam don’t get on. In fact, they haven’t been speaking to each other for quite some time now.

But Liam always comments on literally everything that Noel does.

So, the world was waiting for his response. And yesterday evening, when doing an interview on BBC Radio One, he gave us his thoughts

Barely able to hold back his disdain for the scissors, Liam offered some similar things he might do on stage:

“I’m gonna have someone sharpening a pencil at my gig. It’s gonna proper blow people’s minds.”

“Or peel a banana live on air, that would be good”

The ideas were flowing:

“Maybe get a sticker book out and, like, put stickers in it – with a load of reverb on it and you know, the right crowd, if you give them enough booze and that I think it’ll go down well”

He finally addressed the scissors playing beyond just straight sarcasm, and he’s absolutely not a fan:

I find that a bit strange, the scissor thing, do you know what I mean? It’s like, it’s all right if you’re twenty and off your head on mushrooms and that, but the guy’s 50 now man, you know what I mean? And if he really is trying to convince people that playing scissors is the right way to go about business he needs to have a big, long lie down man.

That is quite a comprehensive takedown, in fairness.

BBC Radio One posted the clip on Facebook last night and it’s been watched over 600,000 times already, racking up 17,000 likes. Extrapolating those massive figures, it looks like the Noel/Liam fan factions can finally agree on one thing: the scissors were a bit ridiculous.
