Merzbow Posted August 3, 2025 Posted August 3, 2025 Quote A fan of Oasis tragically fell to his death during the band's concert at Wembley Stadium this past weekend. The man, believed to be in his 40s, was seated in the upper tier of the London venue, approximately 170ft above ground level. Despite immediate attention from police and paramedics, he was pronounced dead at the scene on Saturday, August 2. Another concert-goer witnessed the horrifying incident as emergency services attempted to revive the man after his fall. The witness recounted: "I was directly underneath in section 211. At first glance, I thought it was a coat falling from the above tier, but then I looked and saw the dude on the concrete. It was horrific to see." The Metropolitan Police confirmed their attendance at Wembley following reports of a man sustaining injuries at 10.19 pm on Saturday, reports the Daily Star. Upon arrival, they discovered the man had "injuries consistent with a fall". Oasis are performing to sold-out arenas ( Image: INSTAGRAM)Witnesses of the tragic event or anyone who may have captured the incident on video are being urged to come forward. It is anticipated that the police will notify the Health and Safety Executive, potentially leading to an investigation into the death. A Wembley Stadium spokesperson said: "Last night, Wembley Stadium medics, the London Ambulance Service, and the police attended to a concert goer who was found with injuries consistent with a fall. "Despite their efforts, the fan very sadly died. "Our thoughts go out to his family, who have been informed and are being supported by specially trained police officers. "The Police have asked anyone who witnessed the incident to contact them. Tonight’s Oasis concert will go ahead as planned." The band is yet to release a comment on the tragedy that unfolded yesterday evening. Saturday's concert marked another sold-out performance for Oasis, their fourth at Wembley Stadium. The Britpop legends launched their Live '25 Tour in Cardiff in July before returning to their hometown of Manchester for a five-night run. Christ, that's horrible. Quote

Paid Members air_raid Posted Wednesday at 07:16 AM Paid Members Posted Wednesday at 07:16 AM Friendly reminder that by a country mile the worst consequence of the reunion has been The Crowd Was Singing Wonderwall. This article pretending it’s some work of genius comes a close second.

"He confirmed there would be no new Oasis music off the back of the tour." Well at least there's that. Quote

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted Wednesday at 04:16 PM Paid Members Posted Wednesday at 04:16 PM That's true. They don't need to put any new stuff out anyway because stuff from Definitely Maybe and Morning Glory probably gets played so much they've made a million pounds in royalties before they even get out of bed every afternoon.

The Curious Orange Posted Wednesday at 04:45 PM Posted Wednesday at 04:45 PM Also a key reason the shows went so well was the setlist basically ignored everything post 1998 Quote
Chili Posted Wednesday at 04:49 PM Posted Wednesday at 04:49 PM They're at that age where really putting anything new out is pointless as it's just a heritage act thing now innit. Plus, they can tolerate doing a live show, not a chance they'd get through the recording of an album. Quote

They'll be travelling separately, in separate dressing rooms. The won't see each other until right before going on stage. Liam didn't turn up to the venue until 20 minutes before stage time anyway.

Rockbus2 Posted Wednesday at 06:36 PM Posted Wednesday at 06:36 PM The fact that people out there can't afford their energy bills and there's other idiots paying hundreds to see Oasis do the same songs in the same order with the same support act again makes me feel ill. Quote

What does this statement supposed to mean? Do you want them to, instead of buying Oasis tickets, give the money to the people who can't afford their energy bull instead? Quote

What about the billionaires of the world? Surely they're more of an issue than a few people that like to go to gigs. Quote
