Liam Gallagher saw the report, and wrote on his social media, “To the Edinburgh council I’ve heard what you said about Oasis fans and quite frankly your attitude [bleeping] stinks.” He added, "I’d love to see a picture of all the people on the Edinburgh council, bet there’s some real [stunning] individuals."

While driving to St. Louis Sunday morning, Terry Luttrell, the band's original singer, fell asleep and lost control of his car. He tells The News-Gazzette, “It just happened. I nodded off.

It’s nothing that can’t be overcome.” He is recuperating at Carle Foundation Hospital in Urbana, Illinois.

BOB DYLAN: 60+ Years Later

Bob Dylan is one of Barbra Streisand’s duet partners on her new album, The Secret of Life: Partners, Volume Two, but he's been looking forward to this since the early '60s. Having once said that he wrote “Lay Lady Lay” for her, Barbra tells The New Yorker, “The fun thing is that we were both 19 years old, in Greenwich Village, [but] never met each other. I remember him sending me flowers and writing me a card in different-color pencils, like a child’s writing: ‘Would you sing with me?’ “I thought, What would I sing with him? How could we get together on this? I couldn’t understand it at that time.” For the new album, they share the mic on "The Very Thought of You.” Babs says, “Bob loved that song. He’s very shy, like I am. But he was wonderful to work with. I was told that he didn’t want any direction. But when I talked to him about things that I suggested, he was so pliable -- he was so open to suggestions. “Everything I heard about him just went out the window. He stood on his feet for three hours with me… It was just an extraordinary three hours.” The Secret of Life: Partners, Volume Two, which also features Paul McCartney, Sting, James Taylor and others, will be released on June 27th.
