Milton Keynes is a nightmare for me Russ! I will carefully consider going somewhere else before deciding on Milton Keynes! So stressful last time!

Yes, I was highlighting the problems the band has had with Wembley...

It was stressful for me too. Easy to get too as I just drove and from Suffolk it wasn't at all bad. But the actual venue! It wasn't near anything and they shut a load of roads off which meant taxis couldn't get through and I had gone on my own, so couldn't get a way to get back to my hotel which was majorly stressful. I was stuck for a long time in MK no idea where in the middle of the night. Still, I have learnt my lesson and if they do MK again I'll stay in the hotel on the doorstep.

That's the problem. I don't think there are so many hotels on the doorstep. Mine was a long long walk, I don't think I'll go to MK again unless I can go right back home after the concert.

Milton Keynes is a great venue though the sound yo get there is amazing. As for travel after the show i must admit i've never had any trouble. i think there are a lot more places to stay now as they are always building in MK.

If its not Wembley or the Emirates I will seriously consider if I even travel for the London show. As much fun as MK is its a pain in the arse.

I remember people complaining about spending hours getting out of the MK car park in 2001 - we were one of the lucky few not to get caught up in it. I did enjoy the concert there, though I prefer Twickenham - can't beat proper facilities!

Last time I had a decent car park, and was out easily then listening on the radio to reports of people being there for hours!
Wembley is the place to be, Twickenham was ok but Wembley is such a good venue I just hope that AEG and Wembley has solved the differences, but I fear they haven't.
Don't make me go to the Degenerates

Im 90% sure I wont bother if its Twickers. Travel to it is expensive (tube and train) wasnt crazy about the 2 shows I saw there and tbh its a pretty soul less ugly stadium.
