With the Giants, they were the only band, but the poor people waiting
for them were (justly) VERY mad!  Still, when something like that
happens to seasoned pros, the performance is just GREAT!
I do not recall who was to follow the Tate-Watters show.  But my
previous comment still applies.
BTW, the Mann Auditiorium is the home of the Israel Philhermonic
Orchestra, so the organizers not only could not know how to deal with
the problem - they could not have expected it!
