Just wondering what the general opinion of these is?

Are you for them or against them?

Personally, I'm on the fence - it depends who is playing. The Lionel Richie, Sir Tom Jones and Sir Elton John concerts at Castle Grim were both fantastic, but the Jess Glynne one I avoided (got no idea who she is).

2018 could see the Irish minstrels Boyzone perform at Castle Grim, whilst in 2019 a Simple Minds/Deacon Blue double-header (celebrating the 30th anniversary of 'Street Fighting Years' by Simple Minds and 'When The World Knows Your Name' by Deacon Blue) could be on the cards.

Never been much of a Boyzone fan, but will admit Ronan Keating at least has some talent and a pleasant enough voice.
 
All the ones bar Jess Glynne made us some money - big names who will sell out most arenas.

Ronan Keating and Madness sold out as well.
