Axl’s At It Again: Guns N’ Roses Dublin Gig Ends In Chaos
And just when you were hoping it couldn't get worse, it does.

Axl Rose's Guns N' Roses continue to sour their memory by disappointing fans across the UK and Ireland with their shoddy timekeeping and massive ego trips, this time at a show in Dublin.The band again managed to take to the stage over an hour after their scheduled stage time, following similar 'issues' at Reading & Leeds festivals this past weekend. Angry fans had had enough by then, booing and throwing bottles. Stopping the band during 'Welcome To The Jungle', the frontman announced "one more bottle and we're going home, we're here to have fun and we hope you are too, but one more and we are gone"
3 songs later, another projectile was thrown, and Guns N' Roses left the stage.
Fast forward quarter of an hour, and staff are onstage claiming "technical difficulties", attempting to get GNR back onstage. Shortly after, they return pleading with the shrinking crowd to stop throwing bottles - it's scaring poor Axl. By 11:10pm the main lights are on, and the majority of the crowd leave.
And here ends the story, you assume? Nope. 11:25pm and Axl is back on stage, playing a set to a much depleted and pretty damn annoyed crowd.
Well done Axl. We await your online rantings.
