Didn't have the best evening to be fair. The drive through London to get to the 02 was TRAUMATIC (please don't ask me any questions about that, I REALLY do not want to talk about it ). We were right up in the nosebleeds and that made me feel sick, and some stupid security guard woman kept harassing me.
Plus the change in key on a few of the songs was very jarring.

It's not really Fleetwood Mac's fault, it's just the 02. It's a horrible venue for live music and I NEVER want to go there again.

If Fleetwood Mac decide to do Wembley or something instead, or do a more intimate gig at say... the Hammersmith Apollo.... then I MIGHT consider seeing them a third time. But never again at the 02. The 02 can f*** off frankly.

So sorry to hear that.
In my experience the 02 is a really great venue- it's quite big but I've always personally found it to feel quite intimate even right up in the gods. Each of us are different, I guess. I wouldn't fancy Wembley; the arena for Unleashed was an awful venue and the stadium would just be way too big. You are very brave for even attempting to drive across London.

I dunno what it is... I didn't mind so much when I saw FM at the 02 in 2013 but I was buzzing, I was with my best mate and we were really having a laugh together... it was just a great vibe.

I was with a pretty good mate this time around so the company was good. It's just something had changed for the worse and pointed out flaws I'd perhaps never noticed before.

I honestly feel like crying when I think about it. Seriously.

I'm sorry to hear this ChickenStu.

Yes The venue plays a big part of having a great experience at a concert.
You have issues with its employees including security acting like aholes,Pain in the neck parking,Sound acoustics which make a great band sound like crap.
