  • Ian Gallagher, come out, there he is.

  • Come and join the couch.

  • There he is.

  • You know everyone on the couch, I believe.

  • Very good.

  • Sit down, sit down.

  • Well done, sir.

  • Congratulations.

  • On what?

  • On your record.

  • It's not out yet, man, but it's doing alright, man.

  • I have a record back, you know what I mean?

  • Doing what I do, you know what I mean?

  • I'm going to tell you this, and you're going to think I'm lying, but honestly, in the television world, it's true.

  • OK.

  • And the album is out today.

  • People can get it today.

  • Oh, yeah, it's out today, yeah.

  • LAUGHTER And you're getting deluxe.

  • Comes with colouring pens as well.

  • You can colour it in.

  • Really?

  • Yeah, you get a little colouring set and that, so when you're bored, you can just colour me in.

  • But it's a thing you said you'd never do, the solo album.

  • Yeah, cos I prefer to be in a band, you know what I mean?

  • Yeah.

  • So now I'm on your jacks a little bit.

  • It's a bit more better when you're with the lads, even though the lads are there and that.

  • Yeah.

  • See, now I've got to do all this chatting, haven't I?

  • Yes, you see that.

  • I'm not going to send over Noel, you know what I mean?

  • He's got all this kind of thing, you know what I mean?

  • But, yeah, it is nice to be back making music, for sure.

  • Yeah, yeah.

  • I know you're going to enjoy the tour more, because that will be you back with a band and back on the road.

  • Yeah.

  • Now, pick you up, though.

  • How quickly did the tour sell out?

  • I think it was about...

  • I think maybe in about an hour or something.

  • Yeah.

  • Really?

  • It might have been a little bit under an hour.

  • Yeah.

  • That's good, eh, Chris Rock?

  • That's real good.

  • Yeah.

  • It's not as fast as yours.

  • UK tour?

  • UK, yeah.

  • No, the American one's still going and that.

  • You keep all the money, huh?

  • Yeah.

  • A little bit, yeah.

  • I've got a lot of outtakes, though, you know what I mean?

  • I've got to, like, pay a lot of bills and that.

  • Yeah, yeah, yeah.

  • You know what I mean?

  • Baby mamas, I get it.

  • Yeah.

  • Yeah, man.

  • Making the record, here tonight, you've got the strings, you've got all these...

  • What have you got against saxophones?

  • They're a bit creepy, aren't they?

  • I don't like them.

  • They're a bit pervy, I think.

  • You know what I mean?

  • When you get some sax out, you know something's going down.

  • So then he started on this one of the songs, he goes, I've got this sax here.

  • I was going, put it away, mate.

  • And he goes, no, no, no, but it won't sound like a saxophone.

  • He goes, it'll sound like a guitar.

  • And I said, well, there's a guitar over there.

  • That is a guitar.

  • That sounds like a guitar.

  • But, yeah, I don't know, I find them a bit, like, a bit odd.

  • So, no saxophones on this record?

  • No saxophones, mate.

  • Liam, you and Twister, why do you stay on Twister?

  • I like winding people up, yeah, without a doubt, man.

  • You really do, don't you?

  • That's what it's about, you know what I mean?

  • Everyone's a bit square at the moment, aren't they?

  • Everyone's just a bit serious and miserable, you know what I mean?

  • I do like winding people up.

  • And I can take it, you know what I mean?

  • I do like to wind up back, you know what I mean?

  • But, yeah, there's a bit...

  • A lot of these rock and roll stars these days are coming and just getting a check out and going, oh, imagine Keith Moon drumming his arse off and then going home.

  • You need to boot a few fingers in that, don't you?

  • You know what I mean?

  • And the tweets, I mean, I know there's...

  • Some of them are a little bit, like, out of order, and I do apologise for them and that, but...

  • You know.

  • As you were.

  • And, obviously, there was the time that, recently, when you were hacked for...

  • Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

  • That's still going on now.

  • That was a police investigation.

  • But, previously, you had...

  • LAUGHTER You had tweeted...

  • I remember...

  • How real is that?

  • Is that, like, a game and then you, like, you snap each other on Twitter and then you phone each other up afterwards and have a laugh?

  • Oh, God, no, that's well for real, man.

  • Is it really?

  • Yeah.

  • We don't like each other, man.

  • LAUGHTER A lot of people think we're waiting around, you know what I mean, for, like, a few more noughts on the end for the thing, but they've already offered us, like, loads of money.

  • Like, millions and millions, but it's not about the money, is it, you know what I mean?

  • Yeah.

  • I didn't realise that the age gap was so big, that it's five years.

  • Yeah.

  • So, when you're kids, five years is a big age gap.

  • Yeah, but it started off, though, I think when the grudge started off, he bought a stereo once, he was, like...

  • I think he bought a stereo at night in and he was working and I'd come home and I'd have my first drink and I got up in the middle of the night and he'd had his little sound system, so, and I was looking for the lights and my head was spinning and I thought, I can't find the lights, I go up to the toilet and I thought, oh, ****, there's a **** here and a **** all over his sound system.

  • LAUGHTER You've got to go, you've got to go, haven't you, and he's woke up going, how you doing, you know what I mean?

  • LAUGHTER I think that's where it kind of started from.

  • In fairness, I'm now Team Noel.

  • LAUGHTER Listen, mate, it could have been worse, if you know what I mean.

  • You got away lightly, I think.

  • Wow.

  • Me and Liam have squared away.

  • We had a little fall-out.

  • Only for ten minutes.

  • Cos he threw my hat across the bar.

  • No, you started it.

  • Did Liam **** your hat, Idris?

  • LAUGHTER No, let me feel his hair.

  • No, I did, I gave him a hug.

  • You know, he didn't like that, cos he loves his hair.

  • LAUGHTER He took my hat off, the bike just went...

  • So we had a little bit.

  • We're all good now.

  • APPLAUSE There we go, there we go.

  • Congratulations.

  • That sounded fantastic.

  • Thank you.

  • It was a boom!

  • You guys like it?

  • LAUGHTER I was just saying to Kevin, yeah, that's the one.

  • I seen you getting down, I was like...

  • And what's the Jack Black connection?

  • Do you know each other?

  • Do we?

  • Do we have a history?

  • Do we?

  • It's nice to meet you.

  • Only my kids are huge fans of School of Rock.

  • I don't think...

  • APPLAUSE Wasn't there something about working together?

  • No, now it's embarrassing.

  • It was his brother, Liam, that was the thing.

  • Oh, wow.

  • LAUGHTER That's all we have time for tonight.

  • LAUGHTER Let's just back up.

  • It's a daily occurrence.

  • I'm trying to shut that down with my eye contact to you.

  • I'm so sorry.

  • I'm sorry.

  • Because you were looking so blank and I was thinking, that's so weird that he can't even remember.

  • LAUGHTER I do find this fascinating.

  • You watch each other.

  • So if he was on here, did you watch him on here?

  • No.

  • But he watches you?

  • Oh, he's obsessed.

  • He'll be watching this now.

  • Can we all say hello to him?

  • Where is he?

  • Hi, Liam.

  • I'm still stuck on the kids part.

  • So they only like School of Rock?
