According to witnesses who attended the show at the Stratford Rex,
Lil Wayne performed a shorter set than expected, after at least six fights erupted near the stage. Despite the efforts of event security and Lil Wayne's own bodyguards, the side stage area originally reserved for VIPs became overcrowded, witnesses say. The witness at the event was impressed by the crowd’s enthusiastic reply to Lil Wayne, noting that most patrons knew the rapper’s lyrics word for word. Minutes later, an audience member launched a bottle onto the stage and was escorted out of the venue, as Lil Wayne stopped the performance.
“As he was walking off someone threw a glass at him from the balcony. Then he turned as if to address the crowd, and then about five or six other objects and glasses rained down on the stage…it was a mess!” No word as to whether the violence resulted in any arrests or injuries.
