Im confused by what people are saying in threads like the Dublin one, first pit, second pit, third pit?! Behind the stage?!

What what what?!

I have (providing Ticket wankers actually send them to me..) Gold Standing. I assume judging by the ticketmaster plans that I'll be in the front bit, with a barrier seperating me from the unwashed masses a little bit behind. And thats it? No seperate areas for those fan club gays? Or is it totally different?
And people are going out about wristbands, those are for fan club bummers only yes? But someone way saying they didnt get in the gold standing although they had a ticket because they got given the wrong wristband!? I don't want a fooking wristband to wear like some 16 year old emo.

Someone, enlighten me!!
