Yeah that would be pretty stupid of me to say, in a world where a band playing at a football game somehow doesnt belong there. Its sort of cute that you think their own school? Belong! Away game? NO BELONG though. Sadly thats not how anything actually works. They were there to do a show. When the show ends, bands do not generally flow out with the crowd.

Should they still have been playing music? No clue. We have no idea what they were asked to do or what the usual procedure is.

Did the cops need to come over and tell them to stop playing music? Absolutely not. Theres no reason whatsoever, because they arent part of the crowd and there was seemingly no pressing need for every single living soul to drop everything and leave.

I mean. Ive seen numerous authority figures say hey that doesnt apply to you, thats for the people that arent literally the sanctioned entertainment set up to entertain. So yes?

If the cops came over and specifically said stop playing music (which there was NO reason to do), I can easily see a director saying no were actually supposed to keep playing. I dont have enough info on I say what happened next that led to any shoving, but it never should have gone there. At WORST the cops should have said alright carry on.

I cant think of a single reason besides imminent danger that the police need to ask a band at a game to stop playing music, even if the game had just ended. I was not aware the police coordinated entertainment at aloe to not events.
They weren't playing at a football game. They were not there putting on a show. The game, and thus the show, was over. They were continuing to play after a football game when security was trying to clear the stadium and the other team's band had stopped. Why are you acting like you can't tell the difference between during a football game and after the game has ended?

A reason other than imminent danger to ask the band to stop playing is because they were trying to clear the stadium because the game was over.
