Oasis fans who have been hearing rumours that Noel Gallagher will be performing a solo show at this year's Glastonbury Festival should prepare themselves for a disappointment. The band's official web site, Oasisinet, has denied a series of claims about what the songwriter will be doing over the next few months. And, unfortunately, Glastonbury isn't on his list.

"Noel Gallagher is not preparing to launch into a solo career nor will he be playing at Glastonbury this June, as have been strongly suggested in some circles," says a statement. "He is an avid fan of the festival and will no doubt be on site checking out a few of his favourite bands again this year. Noel, along with Gem, have had a great time performing their semi acoustic shows recently and will continue to do so when it feels like a good idea, however Glastonbury is not on the agenda."
