An electrical fire stole the thunder mid-song from the iconic rock band Journey at Rodeo Houston, prompting the cancelation of the show just three songs after the legendary band rocked the star-shaped stage on Friday night at Houston’s NRG Stadium.
The chants of Journey fans heard through NRG Stadium after Arnel Pineda’s rendition of smash hit “Don’t Stop Believin” was interrupted by a stage blackout and loss of audio. The crowd carried on the song as to fulfill a planned-out concert theatric.
However, just a few minutes later, the stage’s power outage remained, and Journey band members were seen getting off stage. And a Houston rodeo official announced that crew were working to restore the power outage. About 5 minutes later, the same official announced that the concert will no longer be able to continue due to an electrical fire and directed people to exit the stadium.
No casualties have been reported and Houston Rodeo said they will follow up with concertgoers regarding their ticket purchase.
