Liam Gallagher released a scathing rebuke against a concertgoer who launched a flare during Oasis’s reunion performance at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium on October 31, 2025. The incident occurred during the final song “Champagne Supernova,” as the dangerous projectile bounced around the crowd, creating fire and smoke in the densely packed mosh pit area.
Chaos erupted as a flare lit up the mosh pit during Oasis’s Melbourne reunion, prompting fury from frontman Liam Gallagher.
Taking to X/Twitter after the show, Gallagher didn’t mince words, calling the perpetrator a “seriously fucked up individual” and ominously warning that “you will get yours.” His initial reaction during the performance was more restrained, offering only a finger-wagging gesture and saying “Naughty, naughty, naughty” to the audience of over 50,000 fans who had gathered for the band’s first Australian concert in over a decade.
Despite the alarming nature of the incident, stadium management and Victoria Police reported no injuries resulting from the flare. Authorities made no immediate arrests, as police were apparently unaware of the situation during the event. The security breach has raised significant questions about the effectiveness of the venue’s safety measures, which reportedly included standard bag checks and security wanding at entry points.
Brad Bultman, a self-described Oasis superfan who witnessed the incident, noted initial confusion among attendees about whether the flare was an intentional part of the show’s production.
Fellow concertgoers expressed a mix of anxiety and frustration at the dangerous stunt while emphasizing that the majority of fans were there simply to enjoy the music responsibly. The incident underscores how such disruptions can impact performers’ live performance revenue, which remains a crucial income stream for musicians in today’s industry. The band has since encouraged fans to engage through social media channels instead of dangerous concert behaviors to show their appreciation. Tickets for this highly anticipated reunion tour started at $107 per person, reflecting the immense popularity of the band’s return after their long hiatus.
The incident marred what was otherwise described as an excellent performance from the recently reunited band, who are touring after a 16-year hiatus. Marvel Stadium has scheduled two more Oasis performances on November 1st and 4th with enhanced security protocols in place.
Marvel Stadium management has promised increased security vigilance for subsequent shows in the Australian tour leg. Meanwhile, social media has amplified the conversation around concert safety, with fans expressing concern about future shows and calling for improved security protocols to prevent similar dangerous behavior.
