I don’t think there’s a way to make a stadium gig genuinely good. I know some love them, but: - crap sound - crap performance by band overwhelmed by the scale of it, it’s almost impossible to do nuance at that scale - crap view, only mitigated by large screens that are worse than watching tv at home - sharing a toilet with 100,000 people, and - 2 hours to clear the traffic after. Add to that ridiculous ticket prices, crap online ticketing systems, and inflated food and drink prices, and I wonder anybody bothers.
