Oasis Live..In Our Living Room In Cheshire!















It certainly wasn't the biggest venue Noel Gallagher has ever played - but it was probably the cosiest.

The Oasis superstar gave a Wonderwall-to-wall performance yesterday ... in fan Ben Haynes's Living rooom at Poynton, Cheshire.

Ben, 22, sat spellbound on a couch with his mum and dad and the rest of his family as Noel strummed some of the band's greatest hits.

"I just couldn't believe it was really happening," said Ben, who won the personal gig of a lifetime in a Radio 1 competition and was interviewed by DJs Jo Whiley and Chris Moyles.

"It was a totally amazing experience. We were all chatting to him and he was really nice."

With just an acoustic guitar, Noel played Half The World Away - theme tune to TV's The Royle Family - The Importance of Being Idle and Don't Look Back in Anger. His surprise performance from the Haynes's household was broadcast to millions of Radio 1 listeners.

Ben - a chef at Selfridges in Manchester - has seen Oasis live nine times. He won the chance to entertain one of his heroes at home by remembering which song Noel's brother Liam played live on air when he popped in to Radio 1 in 2003. He gave the answer Songbird, then had to say why Noel should play his lounge.

"I just explained that I was one of Oasis's biggest fans," said Ben. "I can't really remember what else I said - but it obviously worked. I was gobsmacked when Noel turned up on the doorstep."
