Hey Asshole: The Injury Report Oasis' Noel Gallagher was still feeling lousy after being bum-rushed onstage by some idiot earlier this month, so he (finally) visited the doctor: "A CT scan has now revealed that Noel suffered three broken and dislodged ribs in the attack and he has been advised by his doctor that he will not be able to perform for at least another week." Which means that three of the band's shows later this month—all in the UK Europe—have been postponed until sometime after Gallagher heals. [oasisinet.com]

Hey Asshole: The Aftermath Oasis has postponed its show in London, Ont., tonight, thanks to Noel Gallagher sustaining hip and rib injuries after being attacked on stage Sunday. The show has been moved to Dec. 15; meanwhile, the 47-year-old (!!!!) who jumped on stage to have his way with Noel was charged with assault and released yesterday. [London Free Press via BV]

Van Halen Takes A Month Off So Eddie Can Continue Being "Tested"

Initially postponing four gigs last week, the reunited, DLR-powered Van Halen has now decided to put their Google-bait tour on hold until at least the April 19 show in Vegas; turns out the mysteriously illin' Eddie still needs a little more time under the watchful eye of a physician/team of physicians/witch doctor/barber with leeches. "According to organizers, Van Halen, who has battled cancer and substance abuse, 'is currently under doctors' care' and will 'continue medical tests to define a course of treatment," sez Billboard. "No further details were made available." Screwed attendees and Wolfgang fans should hang onto their tix until rescheduled dates are announced; 17 shows are currently on hold thanks to Eddie coming down with the vapors/boogie woogie flu/consumption, from tonight's Charlottesville gig through the band's Baltimore stop on April 15.

Van Halen Shows Postponed Because Eddie Needs To Undergo "Comprehensive Medical Tests"

To cap off Van Halen's Lost Weekday Of Cancellation-Related Speculation, Live Nation has issued a statement saying that four shows, including the band's show tonight in Dallas, have been postponed because of an unspecified medical condition afflicting guitarist Eddie Van Halen. The statement goes on to say: "According to Eddie Van Halen's physician, he is undergoing a battery of comprehensive medical tests to determine a defined diagnosis and recommended medical procedures." In addition to tonight's show being postponed until April 24, Wednesday's show in Cincinnati has been moved to April 22, Friday's show in Raleigh has been moved to April 13, and the band's March 9 show in Baltimore has been rescheduled to April 15.

Tonight's Van Halen Show: It's Off (But It May Be Rescheduled?)

From the slow-as-molasses site for the American Airlines Center, where tonight's Van Halen show was supposed to take place: "The Van Halen concert scheduled for tonight has been postponed. An official press release announcing the rescheduled date will be forthcoming as soon as possible." Ticketmaster's site is also saying that "tickets are not currently available online," but the site is still selling tickets for Wednesday night's VH show in Cincinnati, which will no doubt fuel even more speculation from the folks on the Van Halen fan boards. Over/under on the "the tour's just been cancelled outright" announcement: Three days? Maybe? [Official site / Full coverage / Photo: AP]

Page Fractures Finger, Led Zep Show Pushed Back Two Weeks

Led Zeppelin's concert at the O2 Arena in London—rumored to have been canceled outright earlier—has been pushed back from Nov. 26 to Dec. 10 because Jimmy Page fractured his finger over the weekend. So wait, what does this mean for people who can't make the new date? Do they still have to show up with show eight forms of ID in order to transfer their tickets? Oh, that will be fun. Ah, they're taking refunds. Which means it's time for another lottery, hooray! Page's full statement after the jump. More »
