The night the Gallagher brothers were signed to Creation Records by Alan McGee at King Tut's Wah Wah Hut is part of rock 'n' roll folklore.

But the myth that they threatened to smash up the venue if they didn't play has been debunked by the venue's owner Geoff Ellis.

The date was May 31, 1993 and Oasis turned up to the Glasgow venue with fellow Manchester band Sister Lovers but had no place on the bill.
