According to Algemeen Dagblad, guests labeled the expensive gathering a deception and a scam after the Silk Sonic duo performed only five songs.

Jansman noted that the audience skewed older than the venue's typical demographic.
He also explained the physical limitations of the venue and the artists, stating that the establishment lacks a traditional stage area.
"I suspect they thought it would be a show similar to the night concerts Prince used to give after his concerts," Jansman said.
The event occurred during the pop star's concert series at the Johan Cruijff Arena.
