The band had turned up to the studio in East London without their lead singer Liam Gallagher as he had missed his train from Manchester. I started the day as I usually do by offering to make the coffee and making sure that everyone was relaxed. When Liam did arrive some 30 minutes later, the mood in the studio suddenly changed to being a little more tensed - he had had an argument with his brother and from what I understood, Noel had arranged for one of the band's security to have a word with Liam to straighten him out. This word according to Liam had included a bit of a bashing.

After shooting all the band shots I asked if I could photograph Liam and Noel together. When they were stood alongside each other I asked them to hold hands. For a split second they were just about to do it until they looked up and saw the smile on my face that said - 'that just ain't going to look cool'. I had said this just to ease the tension between them. And it worked! I think the fact that I played their game of cheeky attitude made them feel that I also took risks-as on a different day something as simple as that may have caused the brothers to walk out of the studio.
