The show must go on, sang Freddie Mercury. Visibly, Liam Gallagher does not intend to follow this doctrine. Friday at the end of the evening, the former singer of the group Oasis began his concert as part of the festival Beauregard and, after about thirty minutes, abruptly left the stage, visibly irritated, to boos from the audience.
It was only on Saturday that the “bad boy” of English rock gave an explanation. On Twitter, he apologized for having cut short his concert, citing “laryngitis”, also responsible according to him for the cancellation of his show scheduled for Sunday in Cognac. “Last night I was so disappointed to have to cut the set short,” he wrote.
The organizers of the festival have declined any responsibility. “Since Wednesday, John [le surnom du festival] and its teams make every effort to best welcome festival-goers, partners, teams and of course, artists. We would like to point out that Liam Gallagher has cut short his concert for reasons completely unrelated to the festival, ”said the organizers in a press release. “We are sorry for this situation, but the professionalism of our teams cannot be called into question,” they add.
