Oasis' Noel Gallagher Attacked On Stage In Canada

September 8, 2008
Oasis' Noel Gallagher Attacked On Stage In CanadaOasis guitarist Noel Gallagher was attacked on stage as the band headlined the Virgin Festival in Toronto last night (September 7th).

An unnamed individual forced his way onto the stage and pushed Gallagher as he performed the band's hit 'Morning Glory'.

Security guards tackled the individual, who was later charged with assault.

In a video of the incident - which can be seen below - Gallagher's brother, Liam, can be seen retaliating.

Oasis were forced off stage because of the incident but returned later to continue their set, which ended with a cover of The Beatles' 'I Am The Walrus'.

The two-day festival in the city's Island Park attracted over 40,000 people and saw performances from Foo Fighters, Paul Weller and Bloc Party.
