Liam 'professional' on Oasis tour, mum happy with boys
The 52-year-old rock star has reunited with his brother Noel for the long-awaited Oasis reunion tour, and Liam has been a "total professional" in his approach to the shows.
"Liam arrives 45 minutes before he goes on stage and leaves immediately afterwards," a source told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column.
"At Cardiff he had a car driven into the stadium to take him back to his hotel immediately. Liam is being a total professional and is laser-focused on giving Oasis fans the best show he can."
Liam is well-known for his outspoken personality, but the insider suggested he's matured since Oasis split back in 2009.
"It's incredible to see how well behaved he is being. It's like he's properly grown up now," the source said.
Noel and Liam's mother Peggy recently revealed she was the "instigator" of their reconciliation.
Peggy urged her sons to put their differences aside - but she could not have made them do anything they did not want to.
Speaking to Ireland's Mail on Sunday newspaper, she explained: "I was the instigator, yes. But sure, wasn't it always going to happen at some time or other?"
"It was their choice, of course.
"Look you can't force them to do things they don't want to do.
"You just have to say, 'Get on with it' and I said that."
Peggy is thrilled that her warring sons have finally made up.
She said: "It's great, because nobody wants their kids falling out, do they?"
Peggy also revealed that she was looking forward to watching her sons in action in Dublin.
Peggy actually intends to reunite with some other members of her family, including her sister, at the Dublin show.
She shared: "I'm hoping to get to the Oasis concert in Dublin in August if I can hobble around. That's my plan anyway ... it will be great.
"I know the Irish fans are thrilled about it. There's great excitement in Ireland about the reunion tour and it will be lovely to see family there, also my sister Kathleen. I am really looking forward to the Dublin one."

‘She knows the younger version of me': When two friends reunite after 50 years
Workmates in the 1960s, centenarian Iris Palmington and Moira Scully, 95, reunited when they moved into the same aged-care home in Melbourne. Now they lunch together, happy to have a friend they knew before they were 'old ladies'. Moira: My husband, Frank, and I had a newsagency in Sandringham and Iris came to work with us in the 1960s. She was in circulation and TattsLotto; I was in books and stationery. Iris was always charming and got on well with the customers. The Age was huge, especially with the weekend classifieds, and we had to deliver it to people's homes before seven in the morning. Some people would say, 'Where's my paper?' if it was just one minute past. Iris used to handle that. She always stood up for the paper boys. She worked with us for six years, but I lost track of her after that. Then, in 2018, she turns up here [at Mercy Place Fernhill]. I was so pleased! We sit together at lunchtime. She tells me I eat anything and everything. I've always been big, whereas she's tiny. I get hungry – I'm terrible! We love the same films, which is important here. We want good, frothy musicals of our era – South Pacific and High Society. We do the grizzles if there's something on that's on the more serious side. Iris chose Waterloo Bridge; it was so sad, I carried it around with me for a week. We love Friday night movies here; we're like little kids, with an interval and our plates of lollies. Iris still loves dressing up. If it's a special day, she'll have a tiara on. She always wears beads and a bit of lippie. She used to do ballet – I think she was on one of the trucks once at the Moomba Parade – and she's always spotlessly clean. Not me, I dribble a bit. But if she does dribble, she knows about it. She has a standard and wants that kept up. 'It's nice that she knows the younger version of me, that I haven't always been an old lady.' Moira Scully Iris is a passionate Carlton supporter; I barrack for Richmond. I used to watch the games but now I've got so much reading to do – I like Irish and Australian history – and I didn't anticipate the macular degeneration. I just have the football on silent so I can see the results, but Iris can tell you every jolly kick in the game. She has a little Carlton garden gnome outside her room and if he's happy, he looks outwards with his little glasses on, but if Carlton has lost, he's turned with his nose to the wall in disgrace. Carlton hasn't been doing well lately, so Iris is very cross with them. She's a goer, always ready to have fun. I'm not a talker like Iris; I'm more of a listener. We don't have the number of visitors we used to because a lot of them have gone to heaven if they're our age, and when they're gone, they're not replaced. Frank died a short time after I moved here, which was a very, very big loss. When Iris arrived, I was just pleased to have a friend here, somebody from the past. And Iris sometimes has funny stories to tell me about Frank. It's nice that she knows the younger version of me, that I haven't always been an old lady.

Oasis fan slipped on beer before fatal concert plunge
A man who tragically lost his life at an Oasis gig at Wembley Stadium died after reportedly slipping on spilled beer. Lee Claydon, 45, fell from the upper tier during the Gallagher brothers' sold-out performance on Saturday night. The devastating accident occurred as the audience applauded and fireworks lit up the sky at the end of the show. Despite the desperate efforts of medics, Lee was pronounced dead at the scene. Lee, described as a 'devoted father,' attended the concert with his brother Aaron, niece, and nephew, among 100,000 fans. His father, Clive Claydon, 75, told The Sun the incident as 'an accident waiting to happen.' 'There was beer all over the floor, it was really slippery, and Lee just slipped and fell,' Clive said. 'I am devastated and want answers from Wembley about how this could have happened.' Concertgoers have echoed concerns about the slippery conditions. Jade, 31, from Essex, recounted how she stumbled due to spilled drinks, resulting in minor injuries. Oasis released a statement expressing their shock and sadness over the incident, offering condolences to Lee's family and friends. Lee's brother Aaron informed their father of the tragedy. Clive, in tears, recalled his son's enthusiasm for the gig and lamented the loss of a hardworking family man. Lee's partner, Amanda, paid tribute to him as a 'devoted father, soulmate, and role model,' expressing her heartbreak over his untimely death. A GoFundMe page has been set up by Aaron to support the grieving family, highlighting Lee's role as a loving family man and role model to his son, Harry. A spokesperson for Wembley Stadium stated that the venue operates to high health and safety standards, regularly reviewed and tested to ensure compliance with legal requirements. The Metropolitan Police have called for witnesses to come forward, urging anyone with information or mobile footage of the incident to contact them. Wembley Stadium, along with the London Ambulance Service and police, attended to Lee following the fall. Despite their efforts, he sadly passed away. The police are supporting Lee's family and continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the tragedy.
