Noel Gallagher has revealed that he thought Beady Eye "were great" at the Olympic closing ceremony earlier this month.
Asked about his impression of 'Wonderwall', he said: "It was all right. David Arnold did a new string arrangement for it, which was like thanks very much. It was good. It was great, don't get me wrong. I sat and watched it and I thought it was great. I thought Beady Eye were great, I'm glad Oasis in some way was represented in it".
He continued: "I'm glad somebody did it, if they hadn't done it they would have got fucking Keane to do it or something. At least it was Liam and the lads, I was cool with it".
Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds embark on a UK tour in September. He will also play the iTunes Festival on September 12 at London's Roundhouse and will tour the US alongside Snow Patrol later this year.
