I also think that some kind of signal to tell him to wrap it up would have been better than just cutting the sound... rather rude. I would be unbelievably pissed off if someone did that to me when I'm playing a gig. I care more that it spoils the end of a show for the people who have paid to watch it. The climax is often the best part.
You don't know me, In most locals 10pm or 10:30 is the norm, but I fall asleep anywhere from 7 to 9pm.
I agree the climax is the best part, so why didn't they schedule the concert earlier?
Well, I'm coming from this entirely as a gigging musician myself, so when I say that you can get carried away in jams and lose track of time, trust me. That is why some kind of system should have been in place if they went over time. As I said before, a signal or anything of the sort, warnings of how long they have left, just whatever. Just cutting it off ruins it for everyone involved.
Politeness isn't a one way road.
