Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher has called thousands of fans "cheeky", after 20,000 applied for a refund following a recent outdoor event.
The band performed at Manchester's Heaton Park to 70,000 fans on June 4, but the show was hit with technical problems and concert goers had to wait 40 minutes until a generator was fixed.
During the performance, Noel told fans they could get a refund, but it looks as though he isn't pleased by the large number who are seeking their money back.
Gallagher writes on his blog: "It seems that around 20,000 of you have asked for a refund from that night at Heaton Park, 20,000, so you were genuinely disappointed?"
"I don't recall seeing a 20,000 gap in the crowd. Cheeky ****s.
Oasis offered a refund of £38.30 (VAT is deducted from the £45 selling price), meaning they'll have to hand back more than £760,000.
