Noel and Liam Gallagher once planned to “annihilate” fan who threw shoe at them on stage
nme.comNoel Gallagher has reflected on the time in which he and his brother Liam planned to “annihilate” a fan who threw a shoe at them on stage.Amid a bizarre increase in flying objects being propelled at artists onstage, the former Oasis guitarist and main songwriter revealed that he and his estranged brother were once waiting to find the person who would walk out of the venue with one shoe missing after the gig to take their revenge.Speaking to Dermot O’Leary on BBC’s Reel Stories’, Gallagher shared: “I remember one gig when somebody hit Liam in the head with a shoe.
Liam had the shoe, and I remember we’d come off stage, just waiting at the front door for this guy to walk past with one shoe.
We were going to annihilate him.”There has been an odd influx of artists being injured or at least surprised at shows by things that fans throw at them while on stage.
In recent weeks, Bebe Rexha was hit in the head by a fan’s phone and required stitches. Meanwhile, Pink was left stunned by a fan throwing their mother’s ashes on stage at BST Hyde Park (and later a wheel of cheese), and Lil Nas X had to pause a show at the weekend when a fan threw a sex toy on stage.Elsewhere, US country-pop artist Kelsea Ballerini was struck in the face by an item thrown at her from the crowd (via Variety).
