Actually, it sounds a bit like it was one big fight with six component parts.
Word has it the gig was pretty raucous from the off due to the Rex being packed
to roof. Eye witnesses say that there were scuffles from the start because of
the overcrowding, while some gig goers tried to get on the stage to avoid the
crowds, much to the annoyance of security. But things reportedly really kicked
off after an audience member threw a bottle at Wayne, to which the rapper
allegedly responded: "Whoever just done that, this whole motherfucking crowd
need to beat his ass cause they just messed up the whole show". Said crowd
responded thus, so much so that said bottle thrower had to be ushered out of the
building for his own safety. Wayne reportedly managed two more songs after the
bottle incident, but by that stage the audience had become far too restless and
the show was called to an abrupt end.
