Artists Who Keep Their Fans Waiting for the Show to Start

Don’t you just hate it when the gig doesn’t start on time?  And don’t you get pissed off when you’re forced to wait and wait and wait for the headliner to come on?

Justin Bieber is the last act to annoy an audience with a two hour delay in the start of a show in London. And while he has a long way to go to beat Axl Rose for tardiness and disrespect, he’s being crucified in the press.

The New York Daily News has this helpful list of artists who insist on making the crowd wait.  Douchebags.
