Global music stars eye India, but show needs fine-tuning
With Coldplay and Ed Sheeran among the superstars who have played to packed-out crowds in India recently, there is increasing talk that the world's most populous nation could soon become a mainstay of the global touring schedule. However, a lack of world-class venues to host big-name events has left fans wanting, with complaints ranging from filthy conditions, poor security and technical problems among the issues causing headaches for organizers.
Avid concert-goer Sheldon Aranjo grabbed public attention by writing a public post after wetting himself at a Bryan Adams show, saying there was a lack of toilets. "We are bringing international acts, we are paying on par with people abroad," he tells AFP. "Why can't I expect an international quality event?"
