Clint Boon: “Noel Gallagher wanted to be Inspiral Carpets’ singer”



Clint Boon speaking to the Crewe Guardian about Noel Gallagher:

“When Stephen [Holt] left the band he wanted to be our singer, but we didn’t think his voice suited the band. So we took him on as our roadie and he was with us everyday.

We would party together, we would go to the football together, we were extremely close.

It was quite obvious that one day he would do his own thing, but not even Noel could have imagined how successful he would be.

I still have to pinch myself that he is the same lad from Burnage that we had to pick up and take everywhere with us because he couldn’t drive.”
