So, did O2 rock the O2 arena? (And should you become an O2 VIP customer?)

After all the hype and build-up, the O2 Arena was put to the test on Sunday night by playing host to its first concert with Bon Jovi the choice. Some may say it was a safe choice, with tickets selling out in minutes after going on sale while others seemed curious - would the eighties rockers be able to lift the revamped arena to new heights?

Thankfully for organisers, the concert itself did the job of wiping the memories of the disastrous Millennium Dome (what it was formerly known as) launched in 1999. Perhaps it was always meant to be a rock stadium or at least that’s what it felt like to be inside. Having said that, there were still some logistical kinks to iron out.
