If you missed part of the gig because you had to get transport home, then fair enough for getting the refund thats who its intended for. If you knew by staying you would miss a train or be inconvenienced then thats your call. Anyone apply for a refund in this way is basically stealing. Sure it doesn't come out of Noel or Liam's pocket it probably comes out of the pocket of someone a lot worse off.

The refund is intended for anyone, I didnt hear Liam Gallagher shouting "This is a free gig, but only for the people who need to catch a train". The band offered a refund and anybody in the right mind would apply for it, and of course it comes out of the band or the promoters pocket otherwise they wouldnt have been able to set up a gig for 70,000 people. This is just a stupid fanboy post, I think if you havent applied for a refund then f**k off out of this topic..

I don't recall seeing a 20,000 gap in the crowd. Cheeky vaginas!" ~Noel Gallagher Its not a fanboy post at all mate i'm just pointing out that if you saw the whole gig, what reason do you have to get a refund? If you genuinely lost out then of course you should get a refund. I take it you'd gone early and were one of those who left the 20,000 gap in the crowd? I just think too many people are taking the piss and trying it on.

I have accepted the offer because I wasted 40 minutes of my life having piss thrown on me and being kicked off with. Last but not least, "I just think too many people are taking the piss and trying it on." - I don't understand this as everyone was offered a refund..

Noel flippantly said everyone should get a refund during a bit of a tense time on stage when things hadn't gone quite right. You're taking it all too literally. There's no doubt Noel regrets being so loose with his words as people like you who watched the whole lot and weren't inconvenienced at all are jumping on his every word. Have you ever been to an Oasis gig before? I can tell you it doesn't matter if there's a technical problem or if the aliens landed, people still throw piss and there's still idiots trying to start fights. Noel's quote isn't 'wrong' as you put it and there's still a question in there you haven't answered. It doesn't matter about an off the cuff comment Noel or Liam made, its just a case of whether you are honest enough to say 'yeah there were a few problem's but they still put on a full show and i watched it all'. If thats the case what entitles you to a refund?

No i'm just a memeber on this forum, which entitles me to post in any thread i see fit. You still didn't answer my question or Noel's in his blog for that matter, if you had, the conversation would have been over long ago. You seem to be struggling with that bit. I hope you're mates understand you right, they'll be getting letters from your solicitor saying 'Yeah remember that million quid you said you'd give me if i pulled that bird on friday night, errr...well i did and, I want my money' Don't be to literal man.

If thats the case what entitles you to a refund? 1. I saw the whole show Oasis were brilliant. 2. I have been to an Oasis gig before, but have never had to stand around for 45 minutes having piss thrown on me etc. 3. I will say 'yeah there were a few problem's but they still put on a full show and i watched it all', but I feel that if I'm offered something I am ENTITLED to chase it up. This concludes that Liam and Noel made a mistake when offering a refund to ALL 70,000 attendees, but could have cancelled the refund at any time and I would have not have asked for one. But he didnt so I think im entitled to chase the refund I was offered, END OF.

My mate ordered 2 standing tickets for the Sunderland gig.
2 days before the gig he received 2 seating tickets with a covering letter from See Tickets to say the general admission tickets were oversubscribed so they'd had to cancel his original tickets (why leave it until now to inform). As a "gesture of goodwill" they'd replace them with seating tickets at the back of the North Stand Upper (the furthest away from the stage).
Understandably he wasn't happy and complained. They said he didn't have any grounds to complain as they'd sent him a letter in advance informing him (they hadn't).
He is now pursuing legal action out of principle and has to go to the small claims court. He has been told he has a strong case and is expected to win, but See Tickets are trying every trick to get out of it.
Anyway, the point is that they'll do anything to shaft you and bully you when you complain but when the boot is on the other foot you expect people to just lie back and take it? SJM are worth millions, they have offered refunds but are deliberately being arsey to get out of fulfilling them. They are covered by insurance anyway and none of this will come out of Liam or Noel's pocket.
You aren't ripping off a small band who need the money to survive.
If it was the other way around they'd have no qualms in shafting you.

Totally agree, i went to the city of manchester stadium a few years back when the barrier at the front broke. That delayed the concert a bit, didnt think for one moment to get my money back. Granted if you had a lift or couldnt get a late train and had to get a taxi instead, get your money back. But if you were simply going back into Manchester afterwards then i wouldnt have asked for the money back, wasnt a huge delay or that. Just some people being super tight.

I hope he gets his money back. Totally different to the the people at Heaton Park though to be fair.

Regardless though, they could have put a statement out the following day saying Noel's comments were in the heat of the moment and as the band completed the set they wouldn't be offering refunds. I think very few would have bothered pursuing then. They didn't though, they put a statement out offering refunds therefore anybody with a ticket is entitled to one. It might not be moral but you are 100% legally entitled to it therefore they should just refund them and stop being arsey.

The refund was giving rashly by the Gallaghers because they anticipated the whole show going to shit.
But it didn't go to shit, they got it together for you all when they could have so easily walked off.
Notice how the next time the generator blew, Noel was the first one to say that there would be NO refunds.
Sure, the refunds are offered to everyone, but if you were pleased with how they reacted and how they performed despite a 40-odd min wait, then why would you take it? You're only taking it bc it's money and bc you got to see an entire Oasis gig for free, you're not taking it because you were dissatisfied. Last time I checked, refunds are really ever only given out to people who are so upset at something done poorly. The Gallaghers acted rashly, and they are have to pay, literally.
Support the band, ffs.

Money grabbing fucks. at end of the day you got the full setlist. every last song they were planning to do, i was stood their for 40 mins aswell, but didnt care, just saw Oasis abit later and a few good fights. Even when they offered the money i thought if the whole set is played cant argue which it was.
