Liam Gallagher hit back at brother and former Oasis bandmate Noel during Beady Eye's set at Spain's Bilbao BBK last night (July 7), dedicating a song to his estranged brother.
After playing 'The Roller' Liam announced: "This is for the one and only Noel Gallagher", before launching into 'Bring The Light'.
'Bring The Light', which was the first track Beady Eye released, in November 2010, features confrontational lyrics such as, "I see no point in what you're thinking", and "I'm standing tall, well fucking tough."
The sarcastic dedication comes in a tumultuous week for the pair, which has seen Noel announce two solo albums and reveal why he quit Oasis. By way of response, Liam took to Twitter to post a one word response: "SHITBAG".
For the rest of the gig Liam was in gregarious mood, dedicating other songs to female members of the audience and signing autographs in the pit before leaving the stage.
Elsewhere at Bilbao BBK, Blondie played a rapturously-received set that saw Debbie Harry break into the chorus from The Beastie Boys' hit '(You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party)'. Coldplay and Crystal Castles closed the first night, while Kaiser Chiefs, Kasabian, The Chemical Brothers and Suede are all scheduled to appear.
Beady Eye's Bilbao BBK setlist was:
'Four Letter Word'
'Beatles And Stones'
'Millionaire'
'The Roller'
'Bring The Light'
'Standing On The Edge Of The Noise'
'Kill For A Dream'
'Three Ring Circus'
'The Beat Goes On'
'Man Of Misery'
'The Morning Sun'
'Wigwam'
'Sons Of The Stage'
