Guns N' Roses Blames Tech Glitch for Axl Rose’s Buenos Aires Outburst

The group affirms Isaac Carpenter was not at fault.

Overview

  • Fan-shot video from Oct. 18 at Estadio Huracán shows Axl Rose kicking the bass drum, throwing his microphone and briefly leaving during “Welcome to the Jungle.”
  • In an Instagram Story, the band said Rose’s in‑ear monitor fed only percussion, a problem their tech team corrected by the third song.
  • The statement stressed the incident was unrelated to new drummer Isaac Carpenter’s performance and praised him as “top notch.”
  • Carpenter joined the touring lineup earlier this year after longtime drummer Frank Ferrer exited the band.
  • The show continued without further issues and the South American tour remained on schedule, with the band saying they “had a great night.”
