I'm amazed the M.E.N. booked them at all.
In an indoor arena with a 20,000 capacity no wonder the atmosphere was flat.

I don't like the M.E.N. at the best of times.
The acoustics are crap and unless you get good seats it's hardly worth bothering going at all. Unless you take binoculars.
Every time a big band hit town that I want to see, I groan when I find out they're set to play the M.E.N.
