Title: What is "the Newcastle Incident"? Post by: ExileOnMassSt on August 29, 2006, 04:01:32 AM Just saw the video at newgnr.com, and I can't tell what the hell happens. He's in the middle of Nightrain, and just stops and walks off.
What happened there? Title: Re: What is "the Newcastle Incident"? Post by: Shiryu on August 29, 2006, 04:05:28 AM Somebody threw a coin and hit Axl :rant: .....twice.........I think.
Shiryu. Title: Re: What is "the Newcastle Incident"? Post by: Scree on August 29, 2006, 10:05:43 AM Someone threw a coin and it hit Axl (I heard it was a pound coin) so he stopped the show. They came back out and the same thing happened, hitting another member of the band. After they finished Nightrain the show was over with no PC.

Title: Re: What is "the Newcastle Incident"? Post by: Scone on August 29, 2006, 11:08:05 AM yeah something hit axl in the face and the band left the stage, they came back on and started Nightrain again and played it, something else hit axl and the band finished the gig with no encores.
i swear if whoever had thrown that coin had been found he'd have had his head ripped off by the section of the crowd i was stood in, people were PISSED. the show was absolutely amazing though, so much energy from the crowd and the band despite it being hotter than satan's crotch in the arena.
