Crystal Castles under curfew! CMW update

UPDATE: It has come to my attention that Crystal Castles did NOT choose to end their show after 15 minutes.

This is what happened according to the band label, Lies Records:

"The power was suddenly cut at 1am. The band asked the stage crew to fix this, the stage crew tried using their walkie-talkies to contact someone and instead discovered the walkie-talkies were 'off' as well. 'We lost our power too' was the only response the band received about the problem. We had all assumed it was a power issue until much later when two fans approached the band and stated they had asked security to ask CC to continue playing but the response from security was 'This is a hotel, no noise after 1am.'"

So if there's someone we should actually really blame it's CMW management, who let the show run late and didn't plan this out right. What a disgrace.
