After a follow-up medical examination yesterday doctors reported that Noel Gallagher suffered heavy facial bruising, whiplash and shock when he and two band mates were involved in a car crash earlier this week. Noel has been ordered to rest for at least three days which means the band’s Philadelphia gig on Friday and Boston date on Saturday will also be postponed – their Indiana concert was postponed yesterday. They hope to be able to make a gig at the New York City club this weekend, and resume the main tour next week. Liam Gallagher told the BBC yesterday: "I spoke to him (Noel) on the phone and he's just bruised up and stuff, you know what I mean, shaken. He said it was a car crash. He turned back, looked up and it all happened."
