The downside is that if there’s some unavoidable delay at the start they have to cut the show short. But those shows almost always start on time, so it doesn’t arise.

Pure Reason Revolution in Manchester ran really late in spite of the advertised times, I had to get an expensive taxi home rather than the last train, and a friend missed most of their set in order to catch the train (he lives further out of town than me, and the taxi would have cost him a lot more).

The Jonas Brothers concert last night started late. By like an hour and a quarter. Which is probably harder on pre-teens than two hours is on grown ups.
