Stone Roses - Amsterdam - Heineken Music Hall

Three shows into the Stone Roses' reunion tour and there's already drama.  According to several reports from last night's show at the band's show in Amsterdam, at the end of the show (pre-encore) drummer Reni stormed off the stage and left, leaving Ian Brown to inform the crowd the show was over: "the drummer's gone home.  I'm not kidding you...the drummer's gone home.  Sorry about that."  Brown went on to call drummer Reni a "c**t" then shrugged his shoulders and left the stage. 

Reports are mixed as to what really happened--some say it was the end of the show anyway, and Reni didn't feel like playing an encore.  Others report that Reni was annoyed at Brown for some comment he made during the show.
Watch video of Brown informing the crowd that the show was over:



NME is reporting that "a spokesperson" for the band has indeed confirmed the Stone Roses tour will continue despite the Amsterdam incident.
