Noel Thomas David Gallagher was born on the 29th of May, 1967

child, Liam, in
1972.
As teenagers, the Gallagher brothers (especially Noel) were
truants. They
often were getting trouble with the police. When his mother took
a job in
the school working in the canteen, Noel ensured that hell stop
by to visither during lunch before skipping the rest of his
day.
Noel had first begun to teach himself how to play guitar his
father had left
him, Noel was imitating his favorite songs from the radio. Noel
was
inspired by the debut album of the band The Smiths on Top of the
Pops
album in 1983, performing This Charming Man.
In May 1988, Noel first met guitarist Graham Lambert ofInspiral
Carpets
to find that his brother Liam had become a singer with a local
band called
The Rain. Noel attended one of their concerts in Manchesters
Boardwalk,but was not impressed with the groups act. He rejected an
offer from
Liam to be the bands manager; he agreed to join the band, on
the
condition of take control of the group and became its sole
songwriter.
According to other sources, Noel Gallagher told Liam and the
rest of the
group after having heard them playing for the first time: Let me
write
your songs and Ill take you to superstardom, or else youll rot
here in
Manchester. This had earned him a nick name The Chief by the
band
members of the Rain.
In May 1993, the band heard that a record executive from
Creation
