Yeah given that it was made clear to them that if they went past 12:00pm (or whatever the time was) then the plug would be pulled, for Axl to pull his usual stunt of going on late is fucked. His actions effectively say to the fans that he doesn't give a fuck that they paid money and didn't get a complete show.
The outcome was always going to be the same if they hit the stage late, it appeared to be set in stone. Yet knowing the potential outcome Axl still chose to screw the people over. Deliberately making them wait and not starting until later meant he deliberately short changed the fans.
I know people will say this is par for the course with him, Axl plays by his own rules etc etc, but this whole schtick got old and tired years ago.
The fans were screwed royally. That sit in at the end was such an empty gesture. You wanna do something for the fans, you go on at the appointed hour and give them their moneys worth!

Pretty fucking pathetic, I'm at the end of my tether with this clusterfuck.

Yes they are the same people. The line ups for the festivals are exactly the same, just played on different days.
Has he really cancelled?

Its just losing its appeal to me, they dont seem to be trying anymore.

A riot in Glasgow I can handle, a riot so far from home would be much more scary 
Seriously, GNR almost had a riot on their hands in 2006 in Glasgow and they came on at 9.50!! I can imagine Belfast being just as frisky if they are left standing waiting for ages, only saving grace is its a Tuesday, Glasgow was a hot and humid Friday night.
When was the last time GN'R(Axl) came on before 10pm? Asia? Canada?

Its more the coming on late shit thats bothering me. Dont care if "I should be used to it", its fuckin bollocks and a big FU to the audience.

Travelling to the Belfast gig is such an inconvenience for me for a lot of reasons, after another serving of their shoddy attitude I'm actually having serious second thoughts now.

These festivals normally run along like a well oiled machine, only Axl could cock it up with such senseless fannying about.

Will he blow it or will he emerge triumphant? Who knows, its 50/50 he even shows up lol!
Hmmm... blew it so it seems

Looks like the plug has been pulled.
