NOEL Gallagher was today facing up to life after Oasis after he quit the rock band blaming his brother for the walkout.

In a statement on the band's website, the Britpop star said: “It's with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight.

“People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer.”

Earlier yesterday it was announced they had cancelled their second gig in the space of a week because of “an altercation within the band”.

They were expected to play the Rock en Seine festival in Paris but the crowd were told by Bloc Party, who were due to perform before Oasis, the Manchester band would not be taking the stage.

Last weekend the band pulled out of the V Festival in Chelmsford which they were meant to headline.

The band pulled the plug on their show at the annual music event because frontman Liam Gallagher was struck down with viral laryngitis.

But their non-appearance sparked rumours they were set to split.
