cracking gig though!

Nice weather but I was stuck next to a severely drunk bloke who didn't know any lyrics but still thought he'd try to sing (shout) randomness in their place, bellowing down my lughole all gig. That was when I decided I'd never go seated at a gig again!

Still, at least I had Hull a week later to make up for such an awful experience. Oh wait...

Ha, ha. Good one! I'd hate to have your luck. One of the reasons that I don't attend many concerts is that I am very short and live in fear of being by a drunk yahoo who would spoil my fun (and probably spill his/her drink on me).

I have the same problem, being 5'3" but I try to make the best of it and not let it ruin the fun, even if I get stuck behind people that might as well play basketball for a living. I've had the drunk yahoos too but it's never usually enough to stop me from seeing a band I like.

Hahaha I love this!

Apparently, lots of people managed to get in without tickets which is why numbers are estimated so high.
