10 Messiest Band Splits In Rock Music History
8. Oasis
The whole allure behind Oasis in the first place always came down to the animosity between the Gallagher brothers. At any moment during their run, you didn't know whether or not they would be comrades in arms onstage or wanting to kill each other at the drop of a hat. Even though most can accept that sibling rivalry, there was just that one gig that went a little too far.
During a stop in Paris, Liam Gallagher was particularly furious backstage before performing, going off on every journalist that would have him that night. By the time that Noel tried to soothe everything in the dressing room, Liam was absolutely volatile, swinging an acoustic guitar around and even throwing different fruit around the room. Looking to calm down, Noel went to the bus to chill out before eventually deciding that enough was enough.
After cancelling the gig, Noel held a press conference saying that Oasis was officially done, saying that he could no longer function with his brother anymore. Seeing how everything went down, it's almost bittersweet. If you were following Oasis' tour at that point, they only had two more gigs before being able to finish the tour and take months off from working. If things turned out differently, maybe the Mancunian legends could have hung on for a little while longer.
