Guns N' Roses fans have reacted angrily to the band's “shambolic” performance at the O2 in Dublin last night (September 1).
The US band arrived on stage over an hour later than scheduled for the gig and then walked off after three songs when some fans threw missiles.
The group, fronted by Axl Rose, later returned to finish their set, but many fans had already left.
A number of concert-goers have contacted Gigwise to express their disappoint with Guns N' Roses performance.
One fan, Emma, said: “I was there, it was absolutely ridiculous. I'm just glad my ticket was a present and that at least I didn't waste my money on one.”
Susan, meanwhile, said she was “disgusted with the sheer arrogance of Axl”.
“He showed up at 10.25pm and was clearly going through the motions,” she added. “Between verses of songs he was walking off stage."
Anto Blanch, who was also at the show, said: “Can't believe he expected us to be happy after leaving us that long.”
Many fans have also called for promoters MCD to offer a refund.
A spokesperson for the company has yet to respond to Gigwise's request for comment.

- I was at the concert and the fans were to blame as much as anyone else. Also, if the band were late on stage the late finish of the support band contributed to this.
- Shane, i too was at the gig last night and the support band were not late finishing you clown, they stayed on late due to the non apperance of Axl Rose!
Of course people should not have thrown bottles (plastic may i add!) but what did he expect having left people hanging around for 90 minutes!
- Rock Shows, & Superstars, are supposed to be edgy, unpredictable and dangerous (Moon/Lydon/Cobain) That's what they should do and GnR made a career from it. Maybe real rock should NOT be in a clinical venue that sells pop-corn and ice cream and is organised with military position, where "rockers" can sit on comfy seats texting their pals on Facebook, because that's boring (Blink182).
- Axl Rose is no rocker he's the biggest diva I've ever seen!!! It must be different rules when Axl is doin the throwin!!! That concert 4 me was such a waste of time and money its the most expensive circus I've ever been too!!!
- what do expect if you go see a very crap band anyway?
