Dublin redefined 'Welcome to the Jungle' for Axl Rose and Guns N' Roses on Wednesday night. Rose stormed off stage at Dublin's O2 Arena after the unruly Irish crowd threw glass bottles at him for showing up an hour and a half late, ruining the night for thousands of nostalgic fans.
The crowd was booing (loudly and profanely) before the music even started, and Rose stopped the show immediately after the bottles were thrown at the stage during the first song .
Alright, here's the deal. One more bottle, we go home," Rose warned. "It's up to you. We'd like to stay. If you don't want to have fun, all you have to do is let us know, and we'll go on our way."
The music began again, but 25 minutes and three songs later, it stopped, and Rose stormed off the stage, this time saying: "Have a good evening."
In video from the incident, the crowd is cursing and booing at the band nonstop.
Forty minutes later, the band came back out to play 'Sweet Child o' Mine,' and completed the full set. The show ended at 1:30AM, however, and most of the crowd had already left.
That said ... Irish fans should have already been wary going into the experience, seeing as Rose has a detailed history of tardy performances.
