Cancelled tour! The move comes after videos emerged of Farrell lunging at Navarro during a Friday concert in Boston, hitting him with his shoulder before swinging at the guitarist with his right arm. Navarro is seen extending his right arm to keep Farrell away before he is hauled away by others on stage. The show ended soon after, and the band apologised.

The band is most known for the edgy, punk-inspired singles “Jane Says,” “Been Caught Stealing,” and “Just Because” from the late 1980s and early 1990s, when the alternative rock and grunge music movements were emerging. It had three Top 5 hits on Billboard’s Alternative Airplay list.

“Perry’s frustration had been mounting, night after night, he felt that the stage volume had been extremely loud and his voice was being drowned out by the band,” Etty Lau Farrell, Farrell’s wife, wrote in an Instagram post Saturday morning.

She stated that her husband had tinnitus and a sore throat, and “by the end of the song, he wasn’t singing, he was screaming just to be heard.” She stated that her spouse later broke down “and cried and cried.”

The band’s “Imminent Redemption” tour, which featured opening act English rock band Love and Rockets, began in early August and was scheduled to end on October 16 at the YouTube Theatre in Los Angeles.

Dave Grohl, the frontman of the Foo Fighters, has disclosed that he has become the father of a baby girl who was delivered outside of his marriage to his wife Jordyn Blum whom he married in 2003. Grohl has three daughters with Jordyn.

Dave Grohl expressed his intention to be a “loving and supportive parent” to his new daughter in an Instagram post.

According to USA Today, Blum and Dave Grohl made a rare public appearance in July at the Wimbledon Championships in London.

The family of five had a rare outing at last year’s Grammy Awards in Los Angeles after Nirvana received special recognition from the Grammys for their creative contributions of outstanding artistic significance to the field of recording.

During the Recording Academy’s Special Merit Award ceremony in February 2023, Pat Smear, Krist Novoselic, and Dave Grohl were each given a lifetime achievement award.

In promotion of their 2023 album “But Here We Are,” the rockers’ Everything Or Nothing at All Tour came to a close last month.

When British rock band Oasis announced a reunion tour this week, there was an expected rush for tickets to the 17 shows. Perhaps predictably, there have been concerns and frustrations about the ticket-buying process due to high demand.

Tickets went on general sale on Saturday at 9 a.m. GMT, and it took a little while for social media users to start complaining about inflated prices, long wait times, and error warnings from ticketing company Ticketmaster.

“‘In demand standing ticket’ is just a standard standing ticket except double the price,” Darragh Moriarty, a Dublin city councilor, wrote on X (previously known as Twitter).

Moriarty also shared a screenshot in his article displaying an In Demand Standing Ticket with fees priced at €415.50 ($459.61).

“To clarify, Ticketmaster does not set ticket prices,” a spokeswoman told CNN on Saturday.

Ticketmaster’s official website states: “Promoters and artists set ticket prices.” Prices may be fixed or market-based. Market-based tickets are identified as ‘Platinum’ or ‘In Demand.'”

Stephen Lowell of London stated on X that he had waited five hours for tickets only to receive the notification, “Your session has been suspended.”

“The website did not crash,” a Ticketmaster official told CNN on Saturday.

Oasis will begin their tour on July 4 with performances in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh, and Dublin. Ticketmaster’s website states that the tour “will be one of the biggest live moments and hottest tickets of the decade.”

A presale went live for those who got an email confirming their access. Oasis warned on its Instagram page that tickets would “be allocated on a first come, first served basis” and that “success in the ballot will not guarantee tickets.”

Buyers have frequently expressed dissatisfaction with purchasing tickets for large concert events. In November 2022, Ticketmaster and its parent firm, Live Nation Entertainment, faced public scrutiny for how they handled the enormously popular Taylor Swift Eras Tour.
