Oasis leader Noel Gallagher was clobbered on stage at this weekend’s V Festival. The attack happened about a minute into playing the the title track from their album What’s the Story Morning Glory. Noel’s spokesperson said in a statement that the guitarist fell “heavily” on his monitor speakers and was taken to hospital after the show where he was examined for a “suspected fractured rib and ligament damage,” reported the NME.
Watch video of the attack:
Not cool; sort of echoes the Dimebag Darrell incident, albeit on a lesser scale. Has anyone figured out why this douchebag did it?
Maybe he’s a big fan of one of the hundreds of losers who old Noel has slagged off in hilarious interviews over the years…
Is it just me, or are the crowd cheering after it happened?
Press release:
Fuck, I wonder if he’s hurt worse than they’re letting on…
This begs another question- I thought Noel just quit Oasis? Did they patch things up?
Looks like Liam was trying to get a punch at the guy, so maybe so.
Steve-o, this post is from a year ago.
Oasis drama is evergreen, folks.
New rule- Steve-o does not post during nap time. I saw it on the front page and didn’t realize it was the “On This Day” column.
So, yeah…heh. How about that band Oasis?
