California residents are once again struggling to keep the lights on after as many as 50,000 people lost electricity in a heat wave this past weekend that caused the famed Hollywood Bowl to cancel a concert due to the power outage. [emphasis, links added]

The Hollywood Reporter noted:


The Hollywood Bowl was forced to cancel its Sept. 8 show due to a power outage.

The venue posted on its website that the concert, headlined by Vance Joy, had been called off.

The Reporter said that it was unclear what caused the outage, but KABC-7 blamed the heat:

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
