The outage cut the lights, a projector, microphones, and even a live recording of the show, though the incident was captured by members of the audience with their phones.

However the power eventually came back, and the Brothers Osborne completed their performance.

My apologies to @brothersosborne. As soon as I plugged in my electric turkey fryer the breaker tripped and caused a power outage in my house and in Detroit. You all handled it like champs boys!! #HappyThanksgiving #Lions #Bears #NFL

That’s how pros handle technical difficulties! Now, someone get these guys some Oberon (and probably Bourbon)
Well done, @brothersosborne https://t.co/LEdp7vh18P
