Bombay Bicycle Club have said that they may never play stadium shows ever again, after being 'put off' by a huge gig they recently played in Poland. 

The band played at the Orange Warsaw Festival 2014 at the Stadion Narodowy in Warsaw, when they played a less than perfect gig. 

"We were doing a festival in a stadium, which was quite strange. It put me off playing stadiums so it might be the only stadium we ever do," guitarist Jamie MacColl told Digital Spy.

Bassist Ed Nash continued: "They're so big and reverberant that you play a note and then you hear it a good 5 seconds later coming back at you so it sounds like a complete mess, unlike anything we've ever heard before."

He went on: "We'd like to do it [a stadium tour], but I don't think anyone would be there. It would be very empty."

 MacColl added: "I mean, maybe we could do, like, Grimsby Town stadium or one of the lower league teams... I think that still counts. The smallest stadium tour in the world. I'd be up for that."
