Their last concert in Ireland ended in complete farce, but Guns N' Roses are coming back to Ireland for another concert next May.
The band will play the O2 on May 17th, it was announced this morning.
Their return to Ireland will come as a surprise given the now infamous concert at the same venue in September 2010 when the crowd mutinied when singer Axl Rose turned up 40 minutes late.
After a fan threw a water bottle during the intro to the second song Welcome to the Jungle, the singer announced: "Here's the deal, one more bottle, we go home. We want to stay. If you don't want to have fun just let us know. We'll be on our way."
Three songs later, another object was hurled onstage. Rose said goodnight, the group stopped the show and left the stage at 10.50pm to a cacophony of boos and cat-whistles.
The crowd were told they were experiencing "technical difficulties" before MCD promoter Denis Desmond came on stage and asked the crowd for patience.
"We're trying hard to get Axl to come back on stage. I'm trying hard to get Axl to come back on stage. I'd ask you please to refrain from throwing items at him. I promise a great show, but you have to calm. I'm sorry about that."
By 11.10 pm, the house lights had come on and most of the crowd had left, despite staff members saying that they were trying to get the group to return. After a short interval, the lights came on and thousands of fans left the arena.
The band appeared back on stage at 11.20 pm to complete their set with Rose telling the crowd: "Let's try this again".
He did not say another word to the audience other than to thank them at the end of the show at 12.52am.
Tickets priced from €65.45 including booking fee will go on sale on Friday, February 3rd.
