Liam Gallagher forbidden from tossing objects amongst concert audience during performances
Liam Gallagher Speaks Out Against Ban on Throwing Tambourine and Maracas at Oasis Concerts
Liam Gallagher, the frontman of the iconic Britpop band Oasis, has criticized Edinburgh council bosses during a recent gig at Murrayfield Stadium. The ban on throwing his tambourine and maracas into the crowd at the end of Oasis gigs has been a topic of discussion for the rockstar.
The ban, which was communicated to him recently, was put in place due to an incident where two men mobbed a female fan and snatched the maracas at one of the Live Forever band's Wembley concerts. The reason behind this ban is the multiple incidents of fan injuries and violent behavior during these events. A particularly disturbing incident occurred at Wembley Stadium where a 42-year-old woman caught the maracas and was subsequently knocked down by two men attempting to wrestle them from her, resulting in bruises and cuts.
During one of the Wonderwall group's recent shows at Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium, Gallagher addressed this change, highlighting the need for safety and criticizing fans for their inappropriate behavior. He shared that he was told not to engage in such actions because the crowd cannot behave properly. The rockstar mentioned that the crowd often pinches each other, uses foul language, and exhibits violent behavior during the shows.
Despite the ban, Oasis has made an impressive return to the stage with their tour this summer. The band is currently on the Oasis Live '25 Tour. Interestingly, the Britpop icons are said to have been offered the chance to continue their reunion into 2026 with four shows at Knebworth. If finalised, these proposed dates would mark the 30th anniversary of the band's seminal concerts at the Hertfordshire venue in 1996.
However, nothing has been finalised yet regarding the Knebworth shows. Meanwhile, another music sensation, Vishal-Sheykhar, has announced a new tour and will perform in Delhi and Mumbai.
In a surprising turn of events, Liam Gallagher and his older brother Noel Gallagher have put an end to their long-running feud. The band's reunion and continued success serve as a testament to their enduring legacy in the music industry.
Despite the ban, Liam Gallagher does not consider it as being tight or stingy. He has taken it in stride, continuing to deliver electrifying performances for his fans. The ban, while a necessary measure for fan safety, does not seem to have dampened the spirit of the Oasis concerts.
