Oasis are among the finalists for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s Class of 2024. We won’t know for sure whether the band will be inducted until April, but frontman Liam Gallagher doesn’t seem to care either away.
Responding to the news of Oasis’ nomination, Gallagher tweeted on Sunday, “Fuck the Rock n Roll hall of fame its full of BUMBACLARTS LG x.” (Bumbaclart is British slang for
menstrual pads or toilet paper.)
Gallagher expounded on his thoughts in Twitter replies to fans. He called the Hall of Fame “a load of bollox” and said, “I don’t need some wank award by some geriatric in a cowboy hat,” he wrote. He also encouraged fans to vote for other nominees, such as Sinead O’Connor and Mariah Carey.
Liam also said that while he is not interested in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, he suspects his estranged brother and bandmate, Noel, would attend the ceremony. “The little fella loves hanging out with celebrities so he’d prob go as for me [sic] I’m washing my hair and having a pedicure and a manicure.”
The inductees of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s class of 2024 will be revealed in late April. Other finalists include Ozzy Osbourne (who, unlike Liam, is happy about his nomination), Mariah Carey, Sinead O’Connor, Cher, Sade, Mary J. Blige, Jane’s Addiction, and A Tribe Called Quest.
Liam is gearing up for the release of his new collaborative album with The Stone Roses’ John Squire, which is set for release on March 1st.
