She really didn't do all that much singing anyway, there were a couple verses but she spent more time with the mic at her side anyway (or yelling over the top of the backing track) Re the disconnect option, I thought the timing was a bit long for that, but it depends on what and where things were fed from - it is possible they were going around disconnecting other things (ie, what looked like lights at the top of the building behind the stage, on what I think was the side that the power ended up going out on, not just the screens/lights on the stage which as always is swiftly moved out)? Or it could be as the press releases claimed and that it was external to the stadium. 5 minutes to cool down? Maybe if you're in 30 degree weather lol.
