We recently brought you the odd news that Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters and Nirvana wanted to start a petition to get Liam and Noel Gallagher back together as Oasis. Now, Noel Gallagher has responded in the only way he knows how.

That way? Making Dave Grohl look like a bit of an idiot. In a recent video shared on Facebook, Noel is seen talking to the crowd at a recent gig at North Island Credit Union Amphitheatre in San Diego, USA, and casually asks the crowd if there are “any Oasis fans in the house?”, naturally there’s a large cheer from the baying crowd. Naturally, Noel mocks it a little with a sarcastic “woo”.

“Is anyone gunna sign that petition Dave Grohl wants to get together to get us back together?” he asks the crowd. Again, he’s met with a large cheer. Noel, straight-faced then replies: “I’d like to start a petition to get the Foo Fighters to split up” with the northern wit and cynicism he was blessed with.

It’s one of the reasons we love Noel. It’s one of the reasons we love Liam Gallagher. It’s one of the reasons we signed Dave Grohl’s petition.

We live in hope of the ultimate Britpop reunion.
