Johnny Marr joined Noel Gallagher onstage last night (9 March) for a surprise performance of 'Ballad Of The Mighty I'. Watch it below.

Gallagher's High Flying Birds were performing at the Manchester Arena yesterday when they surprised fans by bringing the former Smiths guitarist onstage during the encore. Marr plays guitar on the album version of the track, but this was the first time they've performed it live.

Gallagher has referred to the track as one of his best songs, thanks to Marr's contribution.
