Oasis have apparently hired ex-members of the SAS to avoid a repeat of last year's on-stage attack in Toronto, which left Noel Gallagher with broken ribs after he was pushed over by a man who managed to get past security and run at him.
A 'source' told the Daily Mirror: "Noel was seriously shook up after he was attacked. It was a freak moment when someone burst through and managed to get on stage. But he wanted to make sure he never had to go through that again. There was a time when he was genuinely scared of getting back out there and performing... So he told Liam and the others that he wanted extra security. And, of course, they agreed - after all, it could have been any of them. When he heard that a couple of the lads brought in to try out as security were ex-SAS, he knew he was in safe hands".
I'm not sure how likely that sounds, but if the Mirror have got a source to confirm it, who am I to argue?
Meanwhile, Noel has been telling the BBC that his band's 2000 album 'Familiar To Millions' is "atrocious", which is exactly what I've been saying for ages. The BBC should have just asked me about it. But, anyway, they thought Noel would be more interesting, so here's what he said: "I think it's atrocious. If you were involved around the circumstances of actually trying to make that album it was not a very happy time. I heard it in a shop in Japan recently and it didn't sound too good to me".
