LIAM Gallagher has announced he is performing a free gig at London’s O2 Arena for NHS staff and careworkers.
The 47-year-old Oasis star has long spoken about performing a one-off charity show for hardworking doctors and nurses – insisting the gig would go ahead with or without brother Noel.

Now, it appears he has taken the solo option, to take place at the end of October, after the 52-year-old failed to agree.
Writing on Twitter today, Liam said: “It’s an honour to announce that I will be doing a gig for the NHS and careworkers at London’s The O2 on October 29th.
“They do an incredible job, we are very lucky to have them. LG x.”
It has not been revealed which other acts will be joining Liam on the bill.

He begged his brother to join him on stage earlier this month, writing: “C’mon NOEL GALLAGHER.”
But he insisted the charity special would go ahead without him, telling fans: “I wanna clear a few things up.
“Oasis gig for National Health Service charity as in all money raised goes to NHS – not to me – will happen with or without Noel Gallagher.
“It may not be the same, but trust me, it’ll still blow you knickers off. As you were LG x.”
Odds on Liam and Noel performing together again have been slashed by bookies in recent days with the chance of them performing together as Oasis before the year is out now 3/1.
Bookmakers Coral also put the chances of them performing together at Glastonbury next year at 4/1.
The charity gig isn’t the first time Liam has sprung into action during the coronavirus outbreak – he also reworked the lyrics of Wonderwall so they were about washing your hands.
