he's perceived as an idiot but one thing you have to respect is you get nothing but pure honesty from this guy! there's not a lot of that about these days lol
Funny enough Phil Collins banished Liam and Noel in Room 101. Phil does actually like Oasis as a band but said they kept having a go at him and are egotistical. Liam has changed alot and would probably would get on with Phil now.
This was a lot of young people's lives in England in the 80s and early 90s. It sounds marginal or different today but nicking clothes off washing lines, thieving a lawn mower to sell in the pub, smoking crap weed and being bored of 80s music was pretty much me and everyone I knew back then. When Grunge and the Manchester music scene of Stone Roses etc then Oasis and the evolution of British rock came in the early to mid 90s, it was partly popular because of what was happening before
It was pretty much like every council estate lads I remember buying clothes of older lads they had robbed from washing lines here in Dublin levi jeans and that things we couldn't yet afford we would steal lawnmowers as it was always a fast sell car radios was another. Oasis were and still are everything me in my eyes they will never be matched
Everyone's talking about how burnage ain't that bad, but what they aren't looking at is the fact that the gallagher bros grew up on a council estate, with an alchaholic abusive dad
when I was working in spain ther was this English cab driver bout 45 u came from burnage he remembers the gallaghers coming into the pubs with stolen goods trying to flog them lol so liam isn't making this up also he knows there old man n he apparently tries to make friends with people by buying them drinks but people are wary of him prob cos people have heard what hes like.
the taxi driver was bullshitting you. do you honestly think they were such prolific thief's that he could remember them specifically? taximan was looking for some extra cash off his fare(you) could see you getting excited at his manc accent
katoness Correct, although burnage has a large council estate, the rest of it is solidly middle class stroke upper middle class and it borders the richest areas in Manchester. Salford it ain't, the Gallaghers have embellished their background for all its worth.
A lot places all over England are like this they’re predominantly working class but relatively safe places - it’s just the people living round here are stuck with no opportunity other than low paying labour work or being on the dole. A lot of these communities are out of the way but if you wander out enough you’ll find some wrong’uns willing to batter you or supply you with drugs. Unless you’re in somewhere like Dagenham or Leeds you’ll likely have grown up in quiet place that is more akin to a rut than downtown Compton.
Im in Dagenham, its got its fair share of honest working class people with all sorts of jobs,,mixed with the usual layabouts dole people,,work shy, drug heads and dealers. Barking down the road is the real shithole, esp around the station, used to be pretty smart and clean 20-30 years ago, now the streets are full of scum just hanging around, intimadation, thieves, dodgy fuckers, gangs. i didnt expect to see 2 youths squaring up outside the kfc with loads of little fuckers looking on while barking train station try and keep them apart, this was 5 days ago.Barking is a shithole.
most of burnage and south Manchester are council estates like where they were from. Also its been cleaned up since the 70's and 80's and they were v poor growing up and had a hard life, also noel's originally from longsight and lived in a block of flats in the city centre in his 20's
The pictures of where they lived don't equate with the image Noel has created. Nice house with a front garden. Not exactly the slums in fairness. Liam really doesnt come across as the brightest bulb here
Know one believes me when I say this but my auntie used to be friends with Liam and Noel when they was teens Liam and Noel have been in my grandmas house but I tell people and they think I’m lying
+jimmima121 It's definitely not as rough an area as a lot of places in Manchester or other towns and cities across the UK. Some family of mine live there and it's fairly quiet. It's working class and probably not a load of money about but it's nice enough and far from rough.
+jimmima121 I live in Burnage and it is by no means rough. Liam never said it was a shithole and is humble about his upbringing, but you have to understand that living here is like time coming to a standstill, it is heavily populated but nothing ever happens.. everyone stays in their homes, you really have to make your own fun. To put it frank it feels like it is raining and gloomy every second of every day, I've never experienced a place like it.
everyone claims to have lived in a rough area. I was brought up in Leeds an area called gipton which was rough as fuck and still is. since moved. but still
Went to the Gallaghers house yesterday, 5, Cranwell Drive. Its defo working-class, but on the surface doesn't seem too rough. No blocks of council flats, more like semi's & tree lined streets. Very quiet. The moment was riuned by a couple directly across the road ( in an old shitty BMW ) who screamed at us to move as where we had parked made it harder to get onto their drive. On the next road, saw a teenage girl throwing shoes into her house in a rage. Bit weird. None of the locals smiled or said hello, they all seemed a bit down. Weird place.
Ben Wilkins don't know much about genesis but tbh face value is the only record I really like, not arguing, I do prefer oasis but I kinda some some recommendations as I only know of the 4 *faced* albums* by him which I do own
I lived 12 houses away from the Gallaghers on Cramwell drive in Burnage . Its a cul-de-sac . Burnage was and still is a very very posh Council estate . I lived there as the mother of my 2 kids was born and raised there . The gallaghers are nothings but posh boys that grew up in an area , where the only crime was stealing garden gnomes . PS . Gallaghers .......if you remember those 3 scruffy jack-russle/ Mutts that would be wondering up and down cramwell..................They were my dogs .
***** infact i'll tell ya just how Hard Liam is . Liam got banned from Sifters ( A record shop on Fog Lane ) ( Liam was suckin off the old shop owner Mr Sifter for weed and liam took offence cos Mr Sifter started seeing a younger Boy ) Anyway Liam started standing outside ' Sifters ' and tried to Bully up and stop young teenagers from going in and buying vinyl . I was coming out of the Barbers on Fog lane and saw Liam get Knocked the Fuck out by a Spotty Kid who was no more than 13 . Dya know what Liam Did ?.........NOTHING . Liam curled up into a ball on the ground and started Crying . He then ran off like a Bitch .
No one thinks they're these hard people, they would have grew up how most kids in general do. I come from a good family but I used to rob people for weed, get lead and sell it and stuff. Drink lots and start fights, I'm not hard but you do that shit when you are a kid. They're far from posh though lol
JAMZYBHOY1989 lol I'm originally from Clayton. I moved when I was six, but I can remember our car being nicked several times and even burnt . I also remember a working men's club being burnt down... they said it was due to drugs in the area.
JAMZYBHOY1989 I lived there in 1983 -1989. I went to ravensbury before it was rebuilt and then moved to droylsden so I still pass through the area. I was six when I moved so only have vague memories
@ImpactMCR i dont think you can tell me that a bloke who abuses his kids is funny. i dont care what you think you know you havnt lived with a perant that whacks you for know reason ( not that ther ever is a reason to hit a kid)
