Nostalgic Australian country-pop-rock singer/songwriter/coverartist Shannon Noll has today apologised after a video capturing a foul-mouthed rant in which he threatened to punch a concertgoer, and encouraged other audience members to punch him, went viral over the weekend.
The singer had been performing at the Duck Creek Picnic Races in Nyngan when his set was interrupted by a “f—head” in the crowd who had thrown a beer can onstage.
“Come on then, that f—head in the tie. You’re a f—ing maggot. Have some f—ing balls to come up here instead of throwing something from there… Come on, cheapshot prick,” Noll yelled at the concertgoer, as his band continued playing the opening strains of the iconic pub ballad, Daryl Braithwaite’s The Horses.
The almost two-minute rant continued with Noll inciting the crowd to “shame that motherf—er there” and offering $100 for someone to “punch that f— for me”.
“F—ing private school, stupid f—ing motherf—er… Have some balls and come up here and I’ll punch your f—ing teeth down your throat out the back, dog-arse prick. Then I’ll f— your missus and your mum,” Noll continued as the crowd cheered.
“Alright, enough with the haters, f— the haters. There’s too many good-looking girls here for you blokes,” he said, before finally launching into the song.
Nollsie has since apologised for going full Condo [Condobolin] on the concertgoer.
“I didn’t mean to go full Condo on that private school motherfucking maggot in the tie” he said.
“But the stupid fucking pouch head really got my goat. Fuck him and the fucking horse he came in on the cheapshot little fuck”
“But yes, sorry about the language, and sorry to his missus and his mother”
