Liam Gallagher 'squares off' with tramp who put crutches in his recycling bin

Homeless man had been hassling Hampstead residents

 

  • Axl Rose: Guns 'N' Roses  were genuinely a fantastic rock band, and after Appetite For Destruction they had the world at their feet. Flash forward a couple past a couple of not-quite-as-good records and virtually all original members except Rose had quit, and Axl was renowned world-wide as one of the most egotistical pr*cks around. The ginger weave wasn't a great idea either.

Liam Gallagher has admitted that he 'squared off' with a tramp who was hassling residents in the Beady Eye frontman's Hampstead neighbourhood.

The tramp was constantly ringing the doorbells of residents and going through their bins - at one point, even putting his crutches in Liam's recycling bin, which was the last straw for the famously loud-mouthed star.

"This tramp kept hassling me at my house," Liam told the Standard, at the relaunch of Red House restaurant in Chelsea. "I know he has been a problem for other people round our way. He was ringing on our buzzer early in the morning and kept asking if I would pay for his pay-as-you-go phone. Proper mad.

"The final straw was when he started messing with my recycling bins. I’m a bit anal about my recycling and he ended up shoving his crutches in my bin. I came out and squared up to him and he had a bit of a go. Put it this way, I don’t think he’ll be coming back round my way again."

He also spoke about his son's penchant for playing drums - and even compared Gene, 11, to legendary drummer for The Who, Keith Moon.

Liam said, "He plays the drums and is really good. He’s more of a Keith Moon type than a steady drummer but I think he’s got what it takes."
