So, I think it's safe to say the notoriously outspoken brothers Gallagher have pissed off more than a few people in their day. And, well, supposing for a moment one of those people wanted to get back in a big way? He just might do the following.

We bring you now to Oasis, rolling through 1995 classic "Morning Glory" at the Virgin Festival in Toronto last night (September 7). That's Liam on the mic and brother Noel on guitar to the viewer's right. Oh, and a word of caution: make sure you're not drinking anything around the 1:30 mark.



I'd like to think the "You know you should so I guess you might as well" egged that dude on. [Thanks to reader Jack Perira for the tip.]

Now of course we don't condone such random acts of violence, but much like "America's Funniest Home Videos" taught a generation to find humor in the amusingly painful moments of others, we laugh here because it is funny. It also helps knowing that Noel and the rest of Oasis simply dusted off for a few minutes and carried on with the gig.

No word yet on the fate of The Dude Who Bum-Rushed Noel Gallagher (though a CBC report mentions he was arrested), but knowing the media back in Oasis' UK homeland, he'll probably have a reality television series and his own NME column before the year is out.

As for Oasis themselves, they entreat us to Dig Out Your Soul in early October, and they have a bunch of gigs-- with, I suspect, significantly heightened stage security-- lined up in the coming weeks.
