Default O2 - they have been giving away pit tickets for FREE
I heard that there have been free tickets dished out to people on the condition they make lots of noise. If things had been organised differently they could have ensured true fans had the opportunity to have these free pit tickets. Pretty annoying for those who paid full price.

Does anyone know if they were given out in the queue or just to people milling around outside the arena? I mean, did the people who got them already have a tier ticket?

I was hoping that they would need to tape off our nosebleed section and give us good tickets! But no the place was pretty much sold out!
Blagging freebies is where it would help being a girl, don't think flashing my moobs will get me an upgrade

Strange.

Oh ok so it's worth asking then? Was it worth it then? Better in the pit?

This is what happens Jon when you force your most loyal fans out with your "richly priced tickets". Cheers for that!!
You really should be ashamed

That would make sense as there were some very loud guys at the back of the pit, but they were fans thats for sure, they knew the words and also when to raise their hands to certain songs which only a die hard would know..... they also were wearing BJ t shirts.

Still the pit wasnt full....

by the look of those in the pits they were full clothed and quite a lot of men who kept their boobies to themselves

From what I've seen on this, you have to live in Greenwich to get a free ticket.
