Noel speaks out after attack
BACK ON HIS FEET: Noel
OASIS’ guitarist Noel Gallagher has spoken out after being assaulted onstage during a gig in Toronto earlier this week.
In his official tour blog he said on the V Festival incident, which caused a later gig to be cancelled: "I'll have to stop this prophesising. I knew something was going to happen last night. I said I had a bad feeling, didn't I!?
"Someone, who can only be described as a 'Canadian', was able to get onstage, somehow managed to evade our crack security team (Trotters Independent Security Service) and assaulted my mid-riff.
"Can't say much more than that as the 'perpetrator's gonna get the book thrown at him. Repeatedly. It was all going so well up until that point n' all."
The Burnage songwriter added: "Feel like I've had a sparring session with Ricky Hatton. Still, we'll probably get an extra couple of days in NYC. Every cloud, eh?"
