They clearly wouldn't just wave everyone in, it'd be a massive breach of licensing conditions. It's already established that having a queue outside going back a huge way isn't a problem, for 10, 12 hours as they literally have that overnight on Tuesday. They'd just make people wait until it was sorted.

And they run power there now I think for lights at least so you could cause significant disruption for evening arrivals already if you so wanted.

(Plus one of the benefits of etickets is you don't get misdelivered tickets at all )

The overnight queues are expected. To add an unexpected wait of 2-3 hours when the gates are open would lead to a lot of aggressive people demanding to be let in. A recipe for disaster

I did actually go to a show in central Bristol that had a national grid outage for about thirty minutes this week (they originally said 90 apparently). 

We were all seated, coming up to headliner, bless them they calmed the crowd, got audience to put phone lights on and continued with no mic, amps, lights etc
