Noel Gallagher has spoken out about his recent attack on-stage at the Virgin Festival in Toronto. As previously reported, Oasis were forced to cancel a gig in Ontario two days later due to injuries Gallagher sustained when he fell onto a monitor after being pushed over by a man who managed to get past security and onto the stage.
Writing on his blog, Gallagher said: "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. 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?"
