Noel Gallagher has told fans how the latest leg of Oasis' world tour has been affected by the swine flu outbreak.
Writing on his blog, Gallagher revealed that upon arrival in Venezuela the band were greeted with a situation normally seen in Stephen King novels.
He wrote: "It's all got a bit mad over here. This swine flu malarky is freaking people out. Landed at Crack'arse (Caracas) airport yesterday.
"All the ground staff are wearing those little white face masks! ALL OF THEM. It was like something out of another Stephen King novel. I suddenly feel quite naked without one."
He added: "Then if that wasn't bad enough my mam called me at that very moment and tells me to be 'careful' or I WILL die of pig flu.
“I swear at that point I did a massive sneeze and the entire airport fell silent and started to stare!! I WANT A MASK!!!"
