In a rare moment of the language meeting the situation, Liam Gallagher has lambasted the “seriously fucked up person” who launched a flare during Oasis’ sold-out October 31st concert in Melbourne, Australia.
The incident happened Friday night local time as part of Oasis’ three-show stay at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium. According to reports, at least one flare was launched into the stadium as the band wrapped up the evening with “Champagne Supernova.”
In an interview with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, concertgoer Brad Bultman said that he and others had originally believed the flare to be part of some grand finale pyrotechnics display.

“Then very quickly I saw it explode and expand a bit further, and then somebody actually pick up the live flair [sic] and toss it back in the air and created more fire and smoke in a different area,” Bultman said. “I was like, ‘Oh geez’ — you hope nobody gets hurt.”
Bultman went on to say that Gallagher’s initial reaction was to tell the crowd “naughty, naughty, naughty.” However, upon taking to X/Twitter after the show, Gallagher offered up a string of four letter words to the feckless fan.
“To the massive CUNT who launched that flare into the crowd last night at the gig in Melbourne you are 1 seriously fucked up individual and you will get yours trust me,” wrote Gallagher.
Also speaking to ABC, the venue’s security team said they’d already instituted bag searches and wanding for the event. However, they noted that there would be an increased security presence ahead of the shows on Saturday (November 1st) and Tuesday (November 4th). Following the Melbourne dates, the band are due at Sydney’s Accor Stadum next week.
This incident aside, Oasis’ reunion tour has gone swimmingly enough. Our own Jonah Krueger saw the band’s August concert from Chicago’s Soldier Field (their first U.S show of the North American tour), saying that “Oasis’ current iteration more than delivers.” He added, “If anything is surprising, it’s how remarkably smooth the Oasis machine is running, especially for being out of use for a decade-and-a-half.”
As we previously reported, Oasis only have a handful of tour dates planned for the remainder of 2025. However, according to Gallagher, there’s a lot more in store for 2026.
