Mr Cannon said he met Noel while the then-unsigned musician was working as a roadie for Madchester band Inspiral Carpets.
“I met him in a lift one day. [We were] talking about trainers,” he said.
“I met them both before I knew anything about Oasis. They were two effortlessly cool oddballs.”
He said after “bumping into each other at gigs” around Manchester, the brothers invited Mr Cannon to watch them play.
“I put it off because I thought ‘it’s bound to be rubbish’, because all my mates’ bands are rubbish.
“And it blew me away, and that was it.”
