Brandon’s Killer night… so Liam Gallagher could watch the footy

THE KILLERS saved the day when Liam Gallagher refused to play Sunday’s closing set at the Isle of Wight festival, so he could watch the World Cup.

The US rockers were booked to play on Saturday, but switched with Liam, 45, so he could enjoy a perfect weekend of football and rock’n’roll.

Asked about the swap, frontman Brandon Flowers revealed he was inspired to be a rock star by Liam.

‘Oasis played in Vegas, I saw the encore. It really lit a fire in me,’ he told Absolute Radio.

He also rubbished rumours Liam once caught him watching Little House On The Prairie on a flight. ‘I need to correct that. It was The Waltons,’ he smiled.
