The remarks were revealed in safety briefings drawn up ahead of the band’s three sellout shows at Murrayfield in August. In the documents, concerns were raised that the sold-out Oasis Live ’25 Tour would clash with the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Another details “concern about crowds of Oasis on weekends as they are already rowdy and the tone of the band”. David Walker, of the Oasis Collectors Group, criticised the comments made in the safety briefings. He told the Scottish Sun: “To call fans drunk, middle-aged, and fat is a nasty, sneering stereotype, it’s a jaundiced view.”Around 210,000 people are expected to attend the three Edinburgh shows amid the group’s highly anticipated reunion tour.
