The Arctic Monkeys have claimed another rock 'n' roll scalp - by hammering Noel Gallagher in a drinking contest.
Noel was so smashed after a tequila session with the young Sheffield lads that girlfriend Sara MacDonald had to help him home.
Noel explained: “I ended up in their aftershow and the bass player goes to the bar and comes back with this tray of tequilas.
“I thought ‘I can't be drinking that, it's nearly two in the morning'. I couldn't say no though because I didn't want to let the side down. He was banging them down. I was about to urinate.
“I was speaking to my missus through semaphore to get her off the dancefloor and rescue me.
“She came over saying ‘we've got to go home' and I was acting all surprised, saying ‘What, already?' I can't remember getting home.â€document.write(unescape("
