Champagne Superstrainer: Liam Gallagher now has to make his own tea and he’s not happy about it

Yeah, yeah, you and I are gonna live forever, but the money certainly won’t, and sometimes aged rock and roll stars need to step up and complete remedial tasks on their own.

Such is the case for Liam Gallagher, the one-time Oasis mouthpiece who apparently now has to make his own freaking tea, a result, he says, from kids these days downloading albums “for nish” and not properly paying out the ass for them like we all did when Definitely Maybe was on the charts.

In perhaps the best video about making tea you’ll see all week (and the realities of these hard times felt by all), Gallagher breaks down rather succinctly how he’s forced to make his own tea now that the record company money has gone dry, detailing how he once had four people — including one “little geezer doing the kettle” — all on the payroll just to make the singer a proper cuppa juice.

Poor ol’ Liam. Half the world away just for a sip of Earl Grey.

Watch the very entertaining video below via BBC Three, then help toss some coin his way by purchasing tickets to his November 25 show at the House of Blues in Boston. Gallagher’s debut solo record, As You Were, is out October 6. Its first single, “Wall of Glass,” still slays.
