Since their debut in 1994, no one could say OASIS has been a band without problems. During one of their most successful tours and their big entrance into the American consciousness, a bustup between the Gallagher brothers had Noel literally disappear from the band which led to a cancellation of the US gigs. It was a big reason why they never got past the 90s rock band label where Americans only knew them for "Wonderwall" and "Champagne Supernova."
However, with Friday's news that Noel has quit the band, it's shocking only because it's the first time the announcement has come with an official statement from the maestro himself.
It's interesting that Noel distances himself even from the other band members with his latest words, which can make you wonder... well, a lot of things. But I won't go there until I hear some news from both sides.
I definitely think Noel will go solo. And if he's really on the outs with the band, I could see Liam continuing on as Oasis without his older sibling. Remember, this was Liam's band first. Noel came in and took over. Granted, it wouldn't be Oasis without Noel, but Liam could continue on. There is always the chance Liam could go solo too.
All in all, I'll watch both Gallaghers and see where the road takes them and where I may follow.
The big question is - can I keep my moniker OasisZealot? Ha ha.
