I didn't go to Slane but by accounts it was terrible. I can't see many promoters pushing for stadiums if a new tour does materialise.
I was at Slane and didn't think it was a terrible show - the atmosphere was pretty good where I was, and they played 3 hours worth of songs that I wanted to hear.

The What About Now songs did fall flat and Richie was missing in certain songs - but it was still a good show, not a terrible one (except the 2 mile walk back killed me!)

I certainly didn't leave disappointed.
