Liam Gallagher appears to have buried the hatchet with big brother Noel on the eve of his Manchester gig.

The former Oasis frontman will play his first ever solo show at the O2 Ritz tomorrow with all proceeds going to the M.E.N's fundraising appeal for victims of the Manchester Arena terror attack.

He and his brother have locked horns ever since Oasis acrimoniously split in 2009 - but today Liam has relented with his usual potato jibes to wish his brother a happy birthday.

"Happy 50th rkid, stay young LG x," he wrote.

The apparently sincere message has sparked hopes of a reunion among fans.

Shaun Hirst tweeted: "Reunite for a charity gig for Manchester seeing as you're in a nice kinda mood."

Julian Message added: "After what's happened this week, quality. Life's too short."

Liam had previously hit out at Noel over the occasion, claiming his brother had invited none of his family to his party .

Tickets to Liam's Ritz show on Tuesday May 30 sold out within minutes after he announced a surprise mini-tour to the M.E.N last Friday .

He told us: "I want to try and help pick people up. People like me, doing what we do, it's our duty to give people a good time."

Of last Monday's suicide bombing at the Ariana Grande concert, he said: "It's outrageous. Just so sad. What can you do? It's just f****** out of order. There are kids and people dying all over the world. And for what?"

Noel Gallagher has also spoken out about the tragedy in an interview marking his 50th birthday.

"I’ve got a teenage daughter, and you know, she may well have been there," he told Radio X presenter John Kennedy.

"But bar a couple of friends of friends who were in hospital and two very close shaves, all the people that I know didn’t get involved in it or weren’t caught up in it.

“But you know, I think this particular atrocity will take quite a while to heal.”
