Axl Rose, it seems, needs a little more patience — and a much louder alarm clock.
The 48-year-old singer of US hard-rock band Guns N’ Roses irritated thousands of his Dublin fans at the 02 Arena on Wednesday night by showing up nearly an hour late and then walking off after an unruly minority in the crowd hurled water bottles on the stage.
Most of the fans left, but Irish concert promoters MCD wouldn’t let Rose leave until he finished the gig. The band went back on stage an hour later to a mostly empty venue and played until 1 a.m.
MCD and the 02 issued a joint statement criticizing Rose for being late but emphasized that “no artist should be subjected to missiles and unknown substances being thrown at them.”
