Noel“簽不下手”
頭子 Noel 最近超欣賞 The Strokes 這個新進的美國團
也蠢蠢欲動想把他們簽到他旗下的 Sour Mash
不過沒想到查了查戶頭
發現最近因為處理離婚的事宜以及上個巡迴中出走所必須付的違約金等等
加上SOTSOG賣得沒以前好收入並沒有增加很多
所以沒辦法如願簽下 The Strokes
也只好忍痛棄愛啦:p
不過 Noel 也談到新專輯的“回歸”
期望能回到像第一張的聲勢和銷量
咱們就靜待十月份的單曲和明年初的新專輯吧
Cheers!

Noel's got no cash for fresh bands
September 3 - posted by noelrock
SOME MIGHT SAVE
AS THE driving force behind one of Britain's biggest bands you wouldn't think
Noel Gallagherwas short of a bob or two. But falling sales, an expensive
divorce settlement, payments for his daughter, multiple-home ownership and
running your own record label all add up.
So much so that the Oasis guitarist/songwriter admits that he couldn't afford
to sign up a band he loves to his label, Sour Mash. The 34-year-old star was
mesmerised by New York- based outfit The Strokes when he saw them live.
They've been hailed by fans as "the future of rock" and their debut album has
gone straight in at No2 in the charts. But despite showering them with
compliments andpleading with their manager, Noel later found that he didn't
have the funds to do the deal. He amazingly confessed: "Yeah, I had a word
with their manager, they're such an amazing group.
But there just wasn't the money to sign them at the time so it didn't happen."
Evidence that Oasis were tightening their belts emerged earlier this year when,
instead of being chauffeured to studios in Buckinghamshire to record their
new album, Noel and brother Liam, 28, slummed it on the train.
Despite what had been an estimated wealth of pounds 40million they had been
ticked off by accountants for overspending. Both men have had to deal with
expensive divorce settlements after splitting with Meg Mathews and Patsy Kensit.
Disappointing sales of their last album and a series of shambolic concerts
suggested failing fortunes. But Noel has pledged that the new album - which
should be finished within the week - will see Oasis return to their more
popular roots. "I want to recapture the sound of our first album.
We lost our way for a few years," he said. Noel, who is dating PR babe
Sara MacDonald, also refused to quash rumours that the couple `are engaged.
He laughed: "Let's just say we're really happy and we'll see what happens...
you never know."
