More details about Frank Ocean s controversial Coachella set are coming to light.

Former hockey players Dan and Chris Powers claimed on their Empty Netters podcast Tuesday that they were part of a massive ice skating routine that Ocean scrapped at the last minute leaving 120 performers in hot tents and buses.

Those figure skaters got cut not because there was an ice issue, not because there was something wrong, Dan Powers said on the podcast . There was no malfunction. He just straight-up was like, Fuck this. Im not doing this anymore. And these 120 people had bused out here.

He was just like, You guys arent doing shit now, he added. So it was just like a wild flip.

The set marked a controversial return for Ocean, who last performed in 2017 . The show was delayed by an hour and ended early and many fans couldnt actually see him .

On Wednesday, Ocean announced he wont return to Coachella this weekend due to a leg injury he suffered before Sundays show.

Representatives for Ocean told The New York Times his injury spurred changes to the stage 72 hours before the show. The Powers brothers, meanwhile, suggested the cancellation of the ice-skating routine was to blame.

Oceans representatives did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the Powers statements.
