Oasis stars Noel and Liam Gallagher never party together anymore, according to film director and documentary maker Ballie Walsh.
Walsh, who produced last year's Oasis DVD 'Lord Don't Slow Me Down' and is currently promoting 'Flashbacks of a Fool', claims the pair operate a "one day on, one day off" system as they are unable to spend time together under the influence of alcohol.
Instead, he said, they go out separately when on tour with their system deciding whose turn it is to go out drinking.
Speaking about his time filming the band, Walsh told NME: "What happened is Noel went out one night and had a rest the next night when Liam went out."
The filmmaker defended the brothers' actions, arguing that it was impressive they had managed to stay together as a band for over a decade.
He said: "Well, would I want to go on tour with my brother? No. I think how they manage to keep it working is great. The fact that they've survived this long and they're still doing it [touring], and they go on stage together every night - well it works."

Leigh Nash is perchance best known as the pixie-like vocalizer with the celestial voice from Sixpence None the Richer, a CCM radical that enjoyed considerable fame in 1999 with the individual "Kiss Me." She had started the band at age 14 with classmate Matt Slocum. Nearly half her life later, at geezerhood 27, Sixpence None the Richer split, albeit on good damage. Before the band called it quits, Nash had a great deal considered on the job solo, if and when she would be band-less. Though the end of Sixpence left her a minuscule overwrought, Nash realised it was metre to make a motion on, and she and her married man stirred from Nashville to Los Angeles. Soon later, Nash gave birth to a boy. She decided to return to her roots a little, which consisted of Christian and body politic music, though she remained in rival with her pop influences. Nash's original musical inhalation came from classic area heroines Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline, and Tanya Tucker -- whose songs she ill-used to larn on guitar long in front the Sixpence years. With maternity as an inspiration, she recorded Blue on Blue and touched back up to Nashville to fall in Movement Nashville, a of late formed collective of musicians geared toward emission the myth that Nashville's music scene consists only of area and Christian music. Puritanic on Blue was released in August of 2006.
