Send Push

One fan had to be rushed out of Oasis' reunion gig in Cardiff tonight on a stretcher after falling ill. During tonight's reunion gig, Noel and Liam finally reunited after 16 years - but there was chaos in the crowd when one ill fan was given medical assistance.

There was a medical incident in the crowd and one person had to be taken off on a stretcher. An onlooker revealed that one gig goer was seen being carried off by the medical crew, with people waving to get out of the way.

The woman who needed medical help was being guided across the front of the stage in the pit area, right by the barrier. The incident happened during the band's song D'You Know What I Mean, before they went on to sing Stand By Me.

The gig is Oasis' first for several years, with the brothers - Noel and Liam Gallagher - having famously fallen out. The band are now back together and are set for a huge world tour, with fans stunned to see them back on stage together once more.

Ahead of the tour, Noel had given an interview where he discussed the huge universal appeal of Oasis.

"A new generation recognises how Oasis wasn’t manufactured. It was chaotic, and flawed, and not technically brilliant. We were rough and ready guys from a rehearsal room, and people recognised it," he said, "I didn’t invent anything. I had good taste in music, a cool record collection, I could write a melody simple enough to make it work, and it was 50% inspiration and 50% copying."

In a separate interview, Liam spoke about their reunion. Asked what makes a great frontman, he said: "I mean being able to sing is good. Just getting on with your job and doing it, and trying to get a vibe going and looking cool."

One Oasis fan revealed she had sold her ticket to the opening gig after a comment Liam had made. Ahead of the first show, Liam faced a backlash for using a racial slur on X, with one person responding to him: "Liam, you can't say that."

Following the incident, Liam removed the tweet and apologised for any offence caused. He wrote: "Sorry if I offended anyone with my tweet before it wasn't intentional you know I love you all and I do not discriminate. Peace and love LG x".

However, one fan decided to sell her ticket after his post. She had said: "I've been I've been a huge fan since 2017. All of my adolescence I was just listening to Oasis – it got me through life and the music really saved my life.

"But I kind of stopped being a fan two days ago because what Liam said is completely not acceptable. As an Asian and as a Chinese person I could not deal with it just by keeping silent and accepting what he was saying. I just can't participate in that anymore. Otherwise it will be disrespectful for my own community where I come from."
