    Tapedek: Oasis v Blur?

    Blur (together)

    Noel v Liam?

    Noel (together).

    Freddie: Cause Noel is a talented guy and Liam is a comedian. He called us boring which is probably a good thing because if Liam Gallagher likes you, you’re fucked.

    Heroin or Cocaine?

    Pete: Cocaine.

    F: I go for Heroin. Not because I’d ever do it but because so much of the music that I love has got a lot to do with Heroin.

    Velvet underground, My Bloody Valentine or the Smiths?

    F: All!

    P: choose one!

    F: 1. My Bloody Valentine because Kevin Shields is just a fucking genius. 2. Johnny Marr and then Lou Reed.

    P: I’d go VU, Smiths and MBV.

    F: I hung out with Kevin Shields. I was trying to get some guitar secrets out of him but no.

    P: Freddie.

    F: Freddie. Why? Cause I’m a neat guy.
