Liam Gallagher Blasts Fan Over Flare at Oasis Melbourne Show
Oasis’ long-awaited reunion tour erupted in Melbourne when a fan ignited flares in the crowd during the closing song, turning joy into alarm for tens of thousands of fans. Liam Gallagher reacted fiercely, delivering one of his trademark rants on stage.
Incident at Marvel Stadium
The first of three sold-out nights at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium took a dangerous turn as two red flares shot across the packed floor while the band concluded their 1996 classic “Champagne Supernova.” Witnesses reported seeing bright flashes and smoke before security acted swiftly to restore order.
“At first, I thought it was part of the show,” said Brad Bultman, an Oasis fan who had queued since dawn. “Then somebody picked up the live flare and threw it again — I just hoped no one was hurt.”
Security and Aftermath
Officials confirmed that although no one was injured, added safety checks would be implemented for upcoming shows. The origin of the flares remains under investigation, despite pre-event security screenings.
