It occurred to me that U2 is the very last band that will be able to do stadium tours, after that, it’s over.

I saw U2 at RFK Stadium in the early 90's - another great show.

Stadium tours killed rock and roll.

The Beatles stopped touring when they got that big. Things didn’t stay “large” until after the success of Woodstock’s media hype. That’s when the norm became big event shows.

It got corporate.
