Dave, your very well respected here, but you CANNOT put Skid Row and The Stereophonics in the same league as Pistols, Clash and GnR

I have seen Arena and Stadium acts (U2) and been to massive indoor venues that hold great shows too with lasers and pyrotechnics only enhancing an already slick show, but you CANNOT beat a small venue like Brixton Academy for the intimacy and atmosphere of a live act.
