Ahead of his 3Arena date tonight, the former Oasis head honcho discussed his love for the capital.
He kicked off the tour for second High Flying Birds record Chasing Yesterday in Belfast last night and now Noel Gallagher is bound for Dublin.
Talking to Hot Press, the songwriter explained why Ireland is always first in his mind when he decides to hit the road.
"I haven't been there since, er, the last time!" he laughed. "We did the Olympia, which was my first solo gig; brilliant. City had beaten Man U 6-1 that afternoon, so we were on a roll! Then we supported the Chili Peppers in Croke Park; okay. The crowd were over there and I didn't really know what to say to them. And then we did the O2 or whatever it's called this week, which was another amazing night. I'm looking forward to me Full Irish breakfasts, me Silvermints and me Tayto!"
Sounds like he'll be well-fed for the show. Doors are at 6.30pm.
If you fancy whiling the time until the gig away with some decent reading material, Mr. Gallagher is the cover feature of the current issue of Hot Press. Entertaining as ever, he is too.
