Noel Opens Up After Attack
Filed under: Anglophilia > Music Minute
Oasis' Noel Gallagher has taken to the band's blog to talk about this past weekend's attack. He was bruised up pretty bad and compared it to a sparring session with Manchester boxer Ricky Hatton.
Here's the other stuff he posted:
"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."
Who's going to be throwing the book?

"Someone, who can only be described as a 'Canadian'
LOLOLOLOLOL
Oh Noel you are so fucking funny.
I also love the only fools and horses reference that only british people will get.
Get well soon, Noel, hope to hear you on Russell Brand's show on saturday night.
i hope he doesnt think all canadians are like this! my best friend was at the show, and said they were amazing….and good for him for coming back on to play a few more songs.
he has got to pluck those eyebrows.
yuck.
a donkey punch would have been more news worthy…. but whateverrrrrr
arent "canadians" another word for black people? if so noel is a genius!
It wasn't a Canadian…it was an American from Detroit who was at the concert.
I like how he throws both his security team AND the entire country of Canada under the bus.
WTF!??? Canadian? How the hell does he know this asshole was from Canada? Maybe it was some bloody englishman invading Canada just to knock the shit out of him….can u really blame him? I wish he would have gone for Liam first….DAMN!
Oasis sucks my big hairy ball sack…fuck them
what a dick…he deserved it!
It's Taylor!!!- ARE YOU FUCKING RETARDED! CANADA IS AN ABORIGINAL DERIVED NAME FOR MY COUNTRY! YOU STUPID RACIST FUCK!
Re: SHADDUP – WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN? ARE YOU ANOTHER AMERICAN ADDICTED TO WAR!
What the fuck is that supposed to mean … "Can only be described as "Canadian"?" Nice to know he thinks our country is full of douche bags and he let one asshole catagorise the rest of us… we actually have a great reputation throughout the globe as being nice… he probably fucked that guys girlfriend in 97 … Noel long forgot about her … but the guy that kicked his ass still thinks about it everyday! Nice to see that Oasis has changed their attitudes…
Re: Melmo – wow you really are a moron aren't you?
Re: Three – Really?!? I hope that's true. It would make him look like an idiot
He should do his research first before bashing a country.
Re: LettyB – i love you .
Re: Uker – I LOVE YOU TOO BOO!
why is it that when celebs are complete assholes to everybody, their shocked when the fans act like asshole towards them?
was that whole "can only be described as canadians" reference really necessary? that just pissed a bunch of canadians off, because that is something we tend to pride ourselves in…not being massive douche bags like that. personally it totally turned me off him now. bunch of british bullshit.
Noel Gallagher is an ass. Always has, always will be.
Re: tiffy – take a chill pill, it's a fucking joke.
noel had it coming!
God Bless everyone and everybody affected from and by the September 11, 2001 devestation… Be Strong with Faith! Viva to the United States of America… We still Rock and are straight up Bad Azz's! Love it, Live it or Leave it…
Re: silverphoenix – PLEASE TELL ME HOW HE HAD IT COMING? WHAT'S HE EVER DONE TO DESERVE BEING ATTACKED?
I THINK YOU'RE CONFUSING HIM WITH HIS BROTHER.
NOEL IS A LOVELY MAN AND A WONDERFUL FATHER TO TWO BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN.
Trotters Independent Security Service
HAHAHAHA
Brilliant - Love the Trotters reference!!
Haha… so it wasn't even a Canadian, after all! Certainly wasn't behaving like one.
Noel may be a prick, but he's a talented one and did not deserve that. You could tell that the guy who pushed him was not Canadian. If he was from Canada, he would have helped him up and brushed the dust off him while appologizing for the incovience! We are a polite bunch up here, doncha know!
I hope Oasis sues the guy for the money they lost by cancelling their London, Ontario concert. Drunk idiots at public events must be dealt with severely.
Well way to go, lose a bunch of Canadian fans after getting attacked by an American! Way to throw us all under the bus …
As soon as I read the Canadian comment all I could think of was WTF. Just proves how much of an asshole this guy is to go and stereotype an entire nation (albeit a wrong stereotype. Aren't we supposed to be nice?)
His "Canadian" comment wasnt meant in a bad way. The guy who did this is going to court.(hence the whole "throwing the book at him" comment) So Noel isint allowed to say too much about it. If he didnt like Canadians he wouldnt have come back out to finish the set. And they wouldnt have re-schedualed the gig in London, Ontario for when hes feeling better.
im not quite sure what to say about this. if hes calling all canadians like that then thats ridiculous cause we definitely arent like that. but i do love oasis
I don't think he's saying all Canadian's are violent at all. It's a joke. :/
I can see how it could be interpreted that way by someone unfamiliar w/ his sense of humor.
Noel is very funny most of the time, and I think people just automatically assume that he's being nasty. Shame, but it does get him a lot of publicity, lol.
What an ass.
I know he was hurt and everything but I looove how he describes the person as a 'canadian'… like we have any control over what that shit bag did.
I think noah was being really ignorant when he made that comment.
Suck it UP!
Isn't that like the pot calling the kettle black???
Someone should pull the dick out of all their asses. For such a shitty band they sure have a huge ego. And I'm pretty sure he was a fellow Canadian, not an American.
Canadian, eh? Fuckin' asshole.
as "canadian"?
He said can only be described as canadian as he cant go into detail as its going to court - and seen as though he was pushed from behind never saw they guy anyway - everyone chill out it was a joke, british humor. Noel you're so funny!
who knows why the man attacked Noel perhaps because he says " he can only be described as canadian" and you were playing in Canada. either way the man was a 47 yr old from Pickering ON and he was charged with assualt so justice was served.
get over it
don't you dare fucking blame it on the 'Canadian'
He could have been a tourist for all we know.
Way to go, kudos for the person who fucked up a perfectly awesome concert…
"someone who can only be described as 'canadian'" haha hes a total legend!
