The bomb threat was called in at 9:00. Nobody was told concert was over until 10:00. We all saw Noel’s tour bus drive off at 9:30. Those are facts.

So

Weird over a month later and they still haven’t identified a suspect in this very public case…

To be clear, do you think someone from the NG team called in a bomb threat because they didn’t sell enough tickets or were being outplayed by Garbage? 

Or do you think a call never happened and it’s just a made up excuse because they didn’t want to play because they didn’t sell enough tickets or were being out played by Garbage?

The entire thing is odd.  I am guessing NG didn't want to play.

Being there it was such a strange feeling (having been to hundreds of concerts at the venue). There was a max exodus after garbage. Staff were begging people to sit up front. I texted my wife before 9:30 and I said I am getting the feeling he’s not coming out, it’s so strange here. All the media reports his bus left after announcement of bomb threat, but we all saw his bus leave at 9:30 (buses park right next to stage). 

I think do think someone from band phoned it in and I will die on that hill until an arrest is made.

But he played other low selling shows before and after this date. Why did he tap out for just this one?

If I had to wager, the same amount of tickets were sold, but what made this embarrassing was that 1/2 to 3/4 of already small crowd exited after Garbage and it was a mostly empty amphitheater at that point.

So they called in a bomb threat?

Maybe they did. Maybe they didn’t. Someone did. No suspects. Bizarre that there isn’t when. A 911 call can be traced. Also bizarre the threat came in at 9:00, the band left at 9:30 and they kept everyone waiting until 10:00. Not gonna rehash the details again, but until someone is arrested, I think it is totally conceivable that happened.

There are bogus reports about a bomb threat, including from Garbages official Twitter. This is total BS. The show was a dud and Noel’s ego couldn’t handle it. I watched the tour bus take off with my own eyes a half hour before they told people to go home. Fuck Noel Gallagher.

Spiritual_Chaos

Many people are saying the bomb threat was called in by Noel himself to not have to play. Can you believe it?

Yes, Noel Gallagher super fan #1. I wrote this when I got home from the show. Nobody at the show knew there was a bomb threat until the next day. We were told a little after 10:00 that due to circumstances beyond anyone’s control, there would be no show and to go home. 

Not gonna continue to rehash this other than to say more than a month later there have been no suspects and no arrests and there probably never will be. I am not the only local person with this opinion.

Ah. So… ”Many people are saying”

IDK. Occams Razor tells me, this is as they have said until info comes out that it isn't.

Man, that Knebworth 22 Liam album is sounding gooooooooodd

Interesting social media post this morning….

A 25th anniversary reissue of The Masterplan would be my guess.   They’ve posted the lyrics to Stay Young and the video for The Masterplan in the last few days.

Hit us with a super deluxe reissue. Like the Pumpkins did with Aeroplane
