“Sydney!”

Guns N’ Roses are no strangers to controversy.

In their time they’ve caused riots, turned up onstage hours late on more occasions than anyone could count, and had loads of messy fall-outs.

Now their reunited classic line-up have annoyed an entire Australian city, after their announcer gave a shout-out to their sworn rivals onstage.

The band’s announcer McBob yelled out “Sydney” just before they came onstage in Melbourne – which did not go down well.

They were met with boos, as the two cities have a long-term (semi-friendly) feud.
