At recent shows the Gallagher brothers walked on stage hand in hand during their Cardiff shows and bumped fists at their more recent homecoming concerts at Heaton Park.

Speaking in a new interview with The Times, Cooper, who also recently announced details of his own one-off intimate show in London, due to take place later this week, only recently learned that Noel and Liam had buried the hatchet.

“Oasis… Good luck to them. Hope it lasts,” he said before adding: “The trick is you don’t divorce; you just separate. Watching those brothers is so stressful. Don’t squabble, guys. Stress is a killer.”

The Britpop icons ended a 16-year absence and made a triumphant return to the stage earlier this month at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium in front of over 70,000 fans.

The show marked the first time the Gallaghers shared a stage since their acrimonious split in 2009.

At the time Noel revealed that Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs was the one responsible for the current Oasis reunion tour.

Elsewhere, Liam Gallagher dedicated ‘Definitely Maybe’ classic ‘Bring It On Down’ to fans who gathered at ‘Gallagher Hill’ at Heaton Park last night (July 19).

Many fans reacted angrily earlier this week after Manchester City Council said that the site had been fenced off ahead of the latest shows to “dissuade people from gathering there,” protecting livestock and recently planted trees.

Despite the council’s decision to fence off the area, many fans were filmed gathering again and singing along to Oasis on the mound at Heaton Park this weekend.

It led Liam to dedicate the band’s ‘Definitely Maybe’ classic to the crowd that had gathered, with the Oasis frontman saying: “Loads of people over there behind some hill or summat. Yeah I wanna dedicate this tune to them.

“Yeah, right, if you lot are listening on the fucking hill, ‘Bring It On Down.’”

Meanwhile, Cooper is set to play a one off date at London’s Union Chapel on Thursday (July 24) in celebration of the reunion of the original line-up, which includes Dennis Dunaway, Neal Smith, and Michael Bruce.

Any remaining tickets can be purchased here. For those unable to get tickets, the night will be shared in a global livestream via the earMUSIC and Alice Cooper YouTube channels, as well as TalkShopLive. Visit here for more information.

The show comes ahead of his new album ‘The Revenge of Alice Cooper’, which is out the following day (July 25).
