Fans were left furious this weekend after paying £22 for a Reggie N Bollie gig which lasted just 15 minutes.
The Ghanaian group performed at Cornwall’s beach bar, The Watering Hole on Sunday night - but their performance was all-too brief for many fans. The duo, who came second in last year's X Factor, have since apologised to fans via Twitter, saying that they were only booked for six songs.
Sincere apologies to our fans who wanted us to play longer yesterday,we were booked to perform 6 songs. You were such an energetic crowd🙌🙌🙌

Reps for the pair told the Metro that they were only contracted to perform a 20 minute set and subsequently blamed promoters for not making it clear to their fans.
Nevertheless, not everyone at the show was too disappointed by the pair’s performance.

A spokesperson for the venue told BBC News, “‘We are absolutely devastated and extremely disappointed.”
The pair landed a record deal with Simon Cowell’s label, Syco, just over a month after the series ended.
