Liam Gallagher has some sound advice for Ireland. Embarrassing how he noticed how shallow and pathetic most Irish had become.
More American than the Americans.
More British than the British,
To see where Ireland went so wrong, all you need do, is read and listen to some of them, all they know is the TV garbage. When they were not texting about Big Brother, What's your house worth or master chef, they were tweeting about it. It was these sort of Brain dead useless people who destroyed what was left of local Irish community.
Gallagher advises post Celtic Tiger Ireland
Liam Gallagher has urged post Celtic Tiger Ireland to learn from its mistakes, saying Irish people had "good souls".
Gallagher - Says Ireland should learn from its mistakes
The rock star talked about how he knew something was wrong with the country when he realised that his cousins in Mayo had bigger houses than him.
The Daily Star quotes him as saying: "I'm well off, right, but my cousins in Mayo had bigger houses than me during those years. Whenever I came back it was all new cars and expensive holidays all round.
"It happens, you get corruption and all of that and everything goes t*** up."
However, the singer has urged Irish fans to learn from the experience.
He said: "I know you've got good souls over there. Learn from your mistakes, the same way I've had to."
Gallagher, whose mum is from Mayo and dad is from Meath, described his family as "a dead proud Irish family".
The ex-Oasis star is now in a new band Beady Eye, who played in The Olympia Theatre in Dublin last week.

Liam Gallagher has teamed up with former Oasis band mates Andy Bell, Chris Sharrock and Gem Archer to form Beady Eye and they're coming to Ireland.
Gallagher - Liam is returning to Ireland with Beady Eye
Ahead of the release of their debut album 'Different Gear, Still Speeding' and their two Olympia gigs, Beady Eye spoke to RTÉ TEN.
Given his Irish roots when asked how Gallagher felt about playing here again, he said: "I love Ireland, Ireland is top. I love going there and having a good time and that.
"I can't wait to get back there and play some gigs and having the craic!"
When asked if the line 'Life is too short not to forgive' in new track 'Kill for a Dream' is a little throw-back to the rift between brothers Liam and Noel that ultimately led to the dissolution of Oasis, Bell said: "It's a true line, whatever situation it came out of, it still applies to a lot of situations, that's what I was getting at."

Noel wrote most of Oasis's songs and the spotlight is now on Liam since he has picked up the pen alongside Gem and Andy.
There were reports recently that he told a curious fan who asked about his lyrics that he'd no idea what they meant.
He said: "Well I know I haven't got a clue what I'm on about. I think Andy knows what he's talking about but believe you me, I have no idea what I'm on about. I am winging it, big style."
Read the full interview in next week's RTÉ Guide, which is available from Monday 28 February.
'Different Gear, Still Speeding' is released on Friday 25 February ahead of their concerts in the Olympia on Thursday 14 and Friday 15 April.
