Oasis Cancels Three More Shows

As a result of injuries obtained by guitarist Noel Gallagher after being attacked on stage on September 7 in Toronto, Oasis have had to postpone three more shows in additions to the shows they’ve missed in the past couple weeks.

Gallagher has reportedly suffered three broken bones and dislodged ribs from the attack and has been asked by his doctor to wait one more week before performing again.

The shows that will be postponed for the time being are in Cornwall, England (Sept. 27), Koln, Germany (Sept. 29), and Paris, France (Sept. 30). The shows will be rescheduled at a later date.

The band assures fans that the Oasis UK Arena Tour, beginning on October 7, will go ahead as planned. The tour will coincide with the release of the band’s new album “Dig Out Your Soul” which will release worldwide on October 6 and in the U.S. on October 7.

3 broken bones and dislodged ribs? Really? He was only pushed.

[insurgentsteve]

im pretty sure falling hard on some rugged floor monitors can do that to you.

[tom.b]

Yeah he went down pretty hard and it didn't look like he was able to break his fall with his arms.

[Melodic_Rocker]

oh darn, this is horrible... i mean its horrible he wasn't hurt more.

[the_who]

It wasn't like a friendly "push" either, c'mon, he fell hard.

[gallagher2006]

He might be milking it a *little*. I mean come on. A couple of my mates have had broken ribs and being back to week after a fortnights rest, and they're bloody labourers!

Sad crack for those looking forward to it. It's the fans that suffer more

[Serjem]

he fell badly onto the monitors...

[.QOTSA.]

ouch

[dagiff]

Milking it? Why would he milk it? It's not like he's just trying to get a few more days off work, he got pushed hard on to his speakers and can'tperform again yet

When's your next gig then? I'll come and push you on your monitors and see how quickly you get up.

I'm kidding obviously, but seriously - what good would it do the world for him to be more injured??

We'd have more cancelled shows, more fans gutted that they've paid for the ticket and won't get to see the band play uintil they reschedule if they do. Get a brain.

[Jalopy1919]

Great band, looking forward to the CD and tour.

[xxdarrenxx]

Saaaaad, why would anyone do that?

Oh and he's not milking it, he had enough money 7 years ago to take a lifetime holiday. He does it because he loves it, and the guy who pushed him is an ass

[earlscourt95]

Apparently Liam thought that Noel had been stabbed when the incident occured (story on live4ever.us). Get well soon Noel, another mega world tour's about to start.

[Froboarder]

Haha, the title made me laugh. Three MORE.
But then I saw why and I was like 'Oh.'

[IlikeMetal]

oh, i thought they canceled because all the little 13yo's were still hungover from the last time they came around

[element4433]

Checked.

it wouldnt have happened if he was an arrogant prick, so he deserved it imo.

[Wigert]

He's not the arrogant prick. Liam is.

[mpeskett]

"dude he fell off the stage onto the ground."

I'm not sure he fell off the stage, just onto his monitors, cos he was back up and hustled off pretty sharpish.

...and wishing more pain on someone you've never met in person makes you some sort of saint i suppose??

yeah fair do's he got pushed over cos he made enemies and there's people that don't like him, but what you said was still stupid.

[Joey Radical]

Haha they're gonna kill the guy who did this...

lol hope not. I mean the guy deserves to be punished, but not by capital punishment.

[adamshakermaker]

If I had got tickets I would probably care! Bastards

[joker_thief]

didn't think he would get hurt that bad. this sucks, guess its better than him trying to play in pain tho

[VIRUSDETECTED]

Man that really sucks. Hope he gets better soon.

[curmudgeon7]

Oasis is the only good band left out there. When they're gone, rock will be dead. C'mon Gallagher, hang on while rock rises again.

i think he's probably older than your mates
and if the doctors ordering him to not perform then its not his fault he cant play
im sure if he had his wa hed be performing
theyd be losing a stack of money through this but

HA!! you've made my day

[gibson-sg-rocks]

he fell pretty huge off stage. im sure he didnt break any bones though. he is the king of rock.

[slash=king]

to be fair noel can be arrogant too but i think he's kinda earned the right to be, being one of the greatest songwriters ever, and i don't see what pushing him off a stage is going to do to help anyones cause.
sucks he's injured hope he gets better quick, and hopefully comes to new zealand sometime.
