Finally I turn the TV on and find the channel Oasis was going to be televised on, I caught it just as they were doing the build up, some american guy interviewing noel in what im guessing was some point earlier today (I dont know if it was before or after our argument. Maybe it was when Liam and I were outside) because he was wearing the same outfit.

"Noel, I heard your ex-wife Jessica and your daughter Eliza are on tour with you" great I managed to turn it on just as I come up, just my fucking luck "but she's not with you, she's with Liam, how does that make you feel?".

Noel sighs and looks right into the camera. "Honestly Brad" he starts "Jessica and I arent on bad terms. I know its all a bit messy with the divorce and what have you but she's been spending alot of time with Rkid. Which is ok because he helps her through all the bad shit and makes sure she is alright, he's probably the best person for her at the moment because they've known eachother for so long. Like. She was there when he was born man. Its great to have my baby on tour with me too, it means I get to see her every day and she doesnt miss out on dad time. Its all good". What a fucking liar. I know he's just lying to butter up the media, but part of me still wondered if some part of him meant it a little.

"There's a rumour going around that they're together, they've been seen holding hands in public, then theres the kissing incident back in january. Both of them became single after that. Do you think they are?" Brad asks with the biggest grin ive ever seen in oh face. Like he was trying to dig up dirt on him.

"After Jess and I split up, she moved back to manchester in liam's house because she had no-where else to go and didnt want to live alone due to her condition, rightly so and all, what my brother and her do is none of my business" he replies "like I said before, hes good for her".

"So what you're saying is they are?".

"What I'm saying is that they arent but its none of our business anyway even if they were".

"Right and-".

"Please can we just talk about the show? I have no answers for anything else".

"Just one more about-" brad replies.

Noel cuts him off "the show, go on".

"So tonight is going to obviously be televised, looking forward to it?".

"Absolutely, we've got a great setlist, its gonna be... really.... really... great" noel replies but he trails off and then I notice the cart in the background, the same one me and Liam were zooming about on earlier, sure enough there we are, going at full speed, not paying attention to anything but eachother. It was weird seeing that moment from an outside perspective. "Sorry" noel chuckles. It seems genuine like hes actually happy to see me having fun. "I really wasnt expecting to see that, looks fun".

"Was that Liam and Jess?".

"It certainly was. Its nice to see her smile. Shes got such a beautiful smile" he replies "i mean that".

"Right well with a very unexpected guest appearence from Jess and Liam Gallagher, thats just about all we have time for. Noel do you have anything to wrap this up?".

Yeah. "Enjoy the show and have a sing-along its gonna be a good one".

"There you have it" brad smiles with a wink. "Heres Oasis. Live from Madison Square Garden".

The screen cuts the black for a minute and then its alive with the crowd and you can see the band walking on, liam in his parka, he holds up his hands and pretends to box the air like hes a wrestler, the crowd go mental. Noel just smiles as he takes his place. The other three do their thing.
"WE'RE FUCKIN' OASIS AND THIS IS CALLED LIVE FOREVER, WHICH WAS WRITTEN FOR THE GREATEST FUCKIN' WOMAN IN THE WORLD KNOW WHAT I MEAN?" Liam shouts.
Then they play the song and about six more. Its going absolutely great. At one point liam jumped on the fake rolls royce front thing of alan's drums but landed wrong and fell off right onto his arse, which made me laugh.
At about halfway through the band are thoroughly high/drunk and drained. I was worried someone was going to say something they shouldnt.
"AURGH!" Liam shouts "fuck this man, my legs are fuckin' killin' an' I aint doin' it no more".
