How Many Times Has Meat Played Wembley ?

[Paul Richardson]

Just watching Strictly Come Dancing tonight from Wembley Arena (the (original) UK version of Dancing With The Stars for those across the Atlantic...) where one of the competitors - a member of Westlife - claimed to have made the most concert appearances at Wembley - 27 times.

Given Meat has been performing at Wembley for at least twice as long as Westlife I wondered how far Meat was behind them ? Anyone know - or would like to make an (educated) guess ?

Just really surprised that Westlife have performed more times at the UK's premier concert venue than Meat ... :twisted:

The list is accurate...

So I counted 26 (?) - so if the list is accurate - then Meat should break this record next year ...

If he plays Wembley... I'd personally like for them to play the O2 Arena, but I don't think it's likely. I'd love to be proved wrong though :-)

I agree - but maybe better to play Wembley and break the record - Westlife FFS :roll:

:twisted: Agreed.
It's rather shameful that our most well known music venue has Westlife as it's house band :facepalm:

The list is not completely accurate, I have on several occasions tried to get you to correct the wrong information about a concert in Norway, but it's still not been corrected ...

I counted 27 i think so it's a tie.

I may be wrong, but I recounted and still get 26 (?) ... I didn't count the Nelson Mandela birthday concert as this was at Wembley Stadium not Wembley Arena, so if you include this then it is 27 ...

Let's pray that One Direction hang around for a few years.
I have to say I find the statistics fascinating. I wonder if Meat is near the top of "most appearances" at other UK venues?

There is an omission on 26th Apr '96 for Newcastle (telewest) arena on the "born to rock" tour.
