Apparently it's Take That, not Boyzone. Potato potahto.

Just when you thought the bar couldn’t get any lower
-
It's levels. Like: which do you prefer - death by drowning or fire? Clearly you could have a better evening licking battery terminals.
Not really sure which is worst (it's boyzone).
-
Boyzone are levels worse. Take That did have one or two decent pop tunes in the early/mid-90s.
Ronan's lot spawned a bunch of copycat groups like Westlife featuring young men dressed in white suits, sitting and swaying on bar stools but while singing dirge rather than while pissed.
-
May be the same issue with train time but Leamington Spa is pretty close, don't know much about the place but its got to be nicer than Cov.
-
Coventry Arena is on the Leamington-Nuneaton train line - 15 mins to Nuneaton in one direction, 15 to Kenilworth and 25 to Leamington in the other. I'd be looking at that, and getting the hotel booked sooner rather than later, because a lot of Take That fans will be doing the same.

As an unhelpful aside.....being sent to coventry seems to be the correct approach to someone crossing continents to watch a
boymiddle aged menbandkaraoke act. -
Karaoke act is a fairer criticism of Boyzone than Take That. Barlow must have written about half of their hits. Boyzone is almost exclusively cover versions.
-
So just 9/10ths karaoke then?
-
I mean, if you're going to the hotel after the gig at what, 10:30 by the time you get out? Just get one in cov, surely? Not like you're going to be sight-seeing at that time of night. There's a DoubleTree Hilton right there.
-
Christ, I even bored myself writing that.
-
I constantly forget how stupidly early gigs finish these days. They are more matinees than nights out.
It will be boyzone for breakfast soon at this rate.
-
On that, just booked tickets for Snow Patrol in Edinburgh in July next year, and they're on at 6pm!
-
Well presumably they need to finish in time to go patrolling.
-
I asked for clarification and apparently it's two nights of Boyzone in London, one night of Take That in Coventry, and one night of Take That in Sunderland. I assume the AI prompt was something along the lines of "ChatGPT please design me the worst vacation itinerary possible".
-
Sunderland and Coventry. Wow.
