Entitled,” one tweeted on X.“Can someone explain to me how/why artists are late for their sets at a festival?

Managing a stacked festival means that we have to be extremely firm with set times,” the post read.“We had a strict curfew of 12:30 and need to ensure that the final act went on stage on time, so everyone could enjoy the New Year’s Eve countdown”.There was no explanation needed for some fans who praised the organizers for enforcing the strict timelines.“Honestly iconic of the organizers to enforce the schedule and not just let her lateness make everything else run later,” one wrote on X with others echoing:“She’s disrespectful, so good on Wildlands.”“Them pulling the plug on her was iconic.”.
