DUBLIN, IRELAND—Dublin Gardaí nabbed 46 rabid Blur fans Sunday, August 17, 2025, for ambushing Oasis concertgoers, reigniting a 90s Britpop feud. The Blur-fans-attack-Oasis-Dublin mayhem left police scrambling to protect fans.
“These Blur nuts were organized, violent, and smug, claiming their band’s for brainiacs,” said Garda Felim Hughes, aiding battered Oasis fans. Blur supporters spouted nonsense like “Albarn’s discography trumps Oasis’ basic tunes.” For more music satire, visit NME.
One Oasis fan, Sean Riley, recounted, “I heard ‘Parklife!’ and got a fist to the face. Another thug hit me, cursing Noel’s old AIDS jab.” A confused fan even brawled himself, torn between both bands.
Gardaí urged caution, noting Blur fans plotted this for 16 years. Analyst Tara Kline quipped, “It’s a Britpop bloodbath!” Check music rivalries at Rolling Stone. At press time, Dublin braced for more fan flare-ups.
