Oasis brothers have standard tour blowout?

Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher and his brother, singer Liam Gallagher, have reportedly had one of their infamous tour blowouts and are now staying in separate hotels as the band prepares to wind up its current U.K. tour. According to NME.com, the brothers appeared to have a falling out following this past weekend's show in Aberdeen, Scotland. Noel is now staying at the West End Hotel in Glasgow, where the band is in the middle of a two-night stand, while Liam has holed up on the city's outskirts, although both were originally booked into the West End.

Arriving at the hotel, Noel told The Daily Record, "My brother is not here with me tonight. He's chosen to stay at a different hotel."

The Gallagher brothers are almost legendary for their volatile relationship, with both quitting the group at various times over the years.

Just recently Noel Gallagher told us that he was angry with his brother for not completing two songs for the band's latest album, Dig Out Your Soul: [ Click to listen if you have a backstage pass] "There's two brilliant, really great songs which are psychedelic epics, which the joker that pretends to be the singer in this band -- I'll put this in inverted commas -- 'ran out of time,' so he couldn't sing them. But, you know, we only had sixteen weeks. Just sixteen weeks to sing ten songs, and only managed to do eight."

The Glasgow shows are the final ones on the band's U.K. run. Oasis starts a North American trek on December 3rd.
