Oasis singer assaulted at Toronto gig.

Last Sunday, Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher was bum-rushed at Toronto’s Virgin Festival. According to reports, 47-year-old Daniel Sullivan entered the stage from the rear entrance and ran up to shove Mr. Gallagher forward. Noel fell on his monitor speakers, bruising his ribs and hip in the process. Though the band managed to finish their set, they were forced to cancel their next gig while Noel’s injuries were diagnosed and treated. While Sullivan has been charged with assault by Toronto police, he has since been released and is due in court on Oct. 24.
