OASIS - GALLAGHER SHOOTS FOR A NEW HOBBY

OASIS star NOEL GALLAGHER has picked up a dangerous new obsession with firearms. The rocker went shooting during a recent visit to Los Angeles, where he's recording the new Oasis album, and now he's planning to start a gun collection at his English country retreat. Pal Tom Meighan, who fronts fellow British act Kasabian, says, "Noel sent me a text about going shooting in America, and about how scared he was of shooting himself. "He was going to get some guns and rifles I think. It was supposed to be a leisurely day out or hobby to get stuck into."
