Lifestyle: Liam Gallagher will play a gig in Manchester next week to raise money for terror victims' families

The former Oasis frontman will give all profits to Manchester Evening News and the British Red Cross' appeal.

Liam Gallagher is set to play a solo gig at the Manchester O2 Ritz Arena next week in an effort to raise money for families of the victims of the deadly terror attack that took place on Monday.

According to the Manchester Evening News, tickets for the gig from the former Oasis frontman went on sale at 9 a.m. on Friday.

All profits will go the newspaper's British Red Cross appeal.

The singer tweeted an image showing four show dates — Tuesday May 30 at the Manchester O2 Ritz, as well as gigs at Brixton's Electric Ballroom in London, Dublin's Olympia Theatre, and Glasgow Barrowlands.

The singer told the Manchester Evening News: "It’s outrageous. Just so sad. What can you do? It’s just f***ing out of order. There are kids and people dying all over the world. And for what?"

"I’d gone to bed early — about 10 p.m. — then got up in the morning to a text from my other brother saying what had gone on and I put the TV on. It’s just unbelievable."

He added that "he knew he had to" donate funds right away.

"The gig was going to happen anyway and we all have to do what we can. I want to try and help pick people up. People like me, doing what we do, it’s our duty to give people a good time."

Gallagher will perform new tracks from his debut album As You Were, which is set for release in October, as well as Oasis songs.
