The band were not informed prior that if they went into the crowd that the show would be forced to end, they said in a tweet.
“2019. Rock n’ roll and live entertainment is soft,” the tweet read. “We are sorry to the fans that bought tickets.”
A shame it ended like that.

2019.
Rock n’ roll and live entertainment is soft.
Never have we heard about a concert being shut down because Remington went into the crowd. No warning prior to say the show will be shut down if you go into the crowd.
We are sorry to the fans that bought tickets.

The show was at Venue Cymru. Apparently once the final song ended, the venue pulled the plug and forced the band to exit the stage, one concert attendee explained in a tweet.
Ok so @PalayeRoyale were kick off stage because the singer came into the crowd. Never seen that at a gig before. #concert
