Oasis And Morrissey Unite At Gig In Los Angeles

Morrissey joined Oasis backstage at their concert in Los Angeles last week.

The former Smiths' star confounded scepticism from guitarist Noel Gallagher, who had earlier told fans that he didn't think the singer would attend the gig.

Writing on Oasis's blog, Gallagher said: "They reckon Morrissey's on the guestlist tonight! Really? I'll believe it when I see him.

“An Oasis concert doesn't sound like the natural environment where one would see a Morrissey."

But Morrissey made the concert at the Staples Center – and even joined the band backstage after their performance.

Speaking about the meeting, Gallagher wrote: "Well, well, well. He turned up!" declared the guitarist after the show. "Morrissey was actually in our actual dressing room. Being very funny.

“He asked me did I have any 'new moves'!! Genius."

The concert formed part of Oasis's second US tour of 2008. The band are scheduled to play four more dates before Christmas.
