If you’ve spent more than 10 minutes on your phone in the four days, you’ve probably seen the video of an astronomy CEO getting caught in an affair at a Coldplay concert. The footage has crossed Liam Gallagher’s desk, and during an Oasis show over the weekend, he let the crowd know that he’s holding space for anyone who’s stepping out.

“Do we have any lovebirds in the house?” Gallagher asked the crowd at Manchester’s Heaton Park on Sunday. “Don’t worry, we ain’t got any of that Coldplay, snidey fucking camera shit. It doesn’t matter to us who you’re fucking mingling with, or tingling with or fingering with. None of our fucking business.” The band then kicked into “Slide Away,” a track from 1994’s Definitely Maybe. Watch a video of Liam’s comments below.

In the original clip, a man and woman are filmed cuddling as they watch the concert. When they realize that they’re being filmed broadcast to video screens across the arena, both hurry to hide their faces. “Either they’re having an affair, or they’re just very shy,” Coldplay frontman Chris Martin says as the couple continues to hide from the camera. Just three days after the video emerged, Andy Byron, CEO of data operations at Astronomer and the man from the video, resigned from the company.
