Guns N’ Roses were forced to cut their Abu Dhabi show short on November 25 after frontman Axl Rose became “severely ill.” The rock band were playing in the UAE on Sunday to close the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Rose told his fans that although he was unwell, he planned to do his best. The band reportedly performed nearly 20 songs before ending the show. “They’ve got me on IVs and a bunch of injections, ’cause I got sick today, I’ve been throwing up for about the last five hours,” Rose told the crowd. “So, instead of canceling, I’m gonna do the best show we can for you.” Slash thanked fans later on Twitter, “Abu Dhabi, you guys were f**king great tonight! Axl was severely ill. But you all were hugely supportive. Thanks for that. We’ll see again next time! Cheers!” Bassist Duff McKagan also tweeted: “Thank you Abu Dhabi! @axlrose pulled a damn miracle.the man was beyond ill, and pulled off something I’ve never seen in my 40 yrs of playing. You all pulled him thru. Til next time!” The band is scheduled to perform next on November 29 at the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg, South Africa and will follow that with a concert at the Aloha Stadium Swap Meet in Honolulu on December 8.
