Liam Gallagher Slams Edinburgh Authorities over Oasis Fans' Depiction
Liam Gallagher Disagrees with Authorities' Evaluation Regarding Oasis Supporters
In a stark response to Edinburgh authorities, Liam Gallagher has taken a stand for Oasis fans following derogatory remarks about them. The Scottish authorities, in internal documents, labeled the band's supporters as overweight, rowdy, and more[1][2][3].
According to the papers, a meeting to discuss security arrangements for Oasis concerts in Edinburgh on August 8, 9, and 12 pointed out that "middle-aged men take up more space." This factor was to be considered in the planning. Authorities were also concerned about potential trouble from "rowdy" Oasis fans and the "tone of the band."
The Edinburgh Fringe Festival, a celebrated global arts and culture festival, is currently underway. Concerns about the Oasis concerts and the safety of participating artists have been raised, potentially causing some artists to reconsider their performances that weekend[1].
In light of the situation, Gallagher has urged fans to avoid staying in the city. "If I were one of you, I'd leave the city that day," the singer declared[2]. Approximately 210,000 fans are anticipated to attend the three Oasis concerts in Edinburgh.
The band's famous founders and brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher ended their 15-year feud in late August 2024, announcing a joint world tour for 2025. Oasis, established in Manchester in 1991, is recognized as a Britpop era pioneer, with their albums graced by hits like "Wonderwall" and "Don't Look Back In Anger," selling millions of copies[3].
