Gallagher sticks up for Monkeys

Noel Gallagher has stuck up for Arctic Monkeys following Morrissey's comments that success has come too fast for the band.

The Oasis guitarist spoke just hours before the Arctic Monkeys opened for the band at the Toronto Air Canada. He said: "You'd be a bit of an idiot if you said: 'No, I'm too young for a record deal.'" He also explained that Arctic Monkeys' success reminded him of Oasis' career.
