Noel Gallagher now shuns rock and roll life to munch on After Eight mints after gigs

Rock wild man Noel Gallagher now munches on After Eight mints and necks bottles of rose wine to unwind after gigs.

The Oasis star shuns his former lifestyle of heavy drinking and drugs in favour of more gentle ways of relaxing. He said of his backstage rider for promoters to lay on at his concerts: “Personally, I haven’t got a lot of requirements – a bottle of whiskey, lots of beers, red wine, rose wine, water, crisps, chocolate.

“And After Eight mints. And Matchmakers!” Leaked versions of riders from Noel’s heyday in Oasis show the band’s backstage demands consisted of a huge list of cigarettes and alcohol.

They are said to have asked for a “clean” and “tidy” dressing room stacked with 30 white towels, along with flowers, a massive mirror and a huge catalogue of alcohol.

Among the ’90s group’s drink demands were 10 bottles of wine, five cases of cigarettes, “good quality imported beer” and spirits, lemons, corkscrews – and five cigarette lighters.

Dad-of-three Noel - currently preparing for the 2025 Oasis reunion tour - announced in January he had split from his publicist wife Sara MacDonald after 12 years of marriage, and said before the break-up he had been following a clean living lifestyle that meant he didn’t usually even drink wine at home if Sara opened a bottle.

He also had a gym installed in his home.

But he admitted on a podcast he had been tucking into treats from Fig Rolls to children’s lollies since his divorce, leaving him feeling like he needs to “get back to the gym”.
