3. Buy lots of beer (so that your hands are full) and place the ticket between your teeth. Walk up to security and give him the 'hurry up..I'm going to spill it' look..and hope he lets you through without wanting to check your soggy ticket. I've done that before at a few sports venues...aherm...
Hmmm. Now the last one I like. Thing is, I don't drink beer...

I could just buy a load, and find some Jovitalkers in the circle...and give them the beer.

You and me should do buisness. Keep talkin'.

How about I go into GC, fold my ticket into an little aeroplane and fling it back towards you in GA. You catch it...walk in..job done!

Naaa....didn't think so......

Hahaha.

Maybe a speech would do it? But I bet they get that all the time?

I don't think fluttering eyelashes, is gonna do the trick with this either.

Sometimes just being up-front works. Are you on your own? If so, just walk up, smile..smile some more and maybe they'll let you in. I see it all the time.

Wouldn't work for a group of fans perhaps...but if you get there early and the person is in a good mood..who knows?

Take 10 different coloured wristbands and you'll have a good shot at it, unless they've changed things around this tour.

It's me and my mum. Haha.

Yeah, I'm just gonna be honest with them. And tell them there's a possibility I will die if not!

Question for you....how well can you see, at the front of GA?

Very well. The Gold Circle isn't huge. If you're at the front of GA, you'll be 30-40 or so yards from the stage.

I'm not sure..for stadium gigs the view varies. At Metallica (Wembley) I didn't see too much because they had a GC area and then GA behind it. You needed to be quite tall to get a good view. The Foos stage at Wembley was 'in the round' so that wasn't too bad.

I think you'll be fine though...no one ever stands in the same place for the duration, especially before the main act hits the stage (people need to buy drinks and use the loo!). If you bide your time you'll be able to move closer to the front.

Hi Richie,

Out of interest, how many people do you think will be in the GC area? I know it's hard to say, so give me an educated guess

Cheers

Neil

Excellant. Thanks, Richie.

Hopefully I'll be sorted then. Shame I'm a shortass, though.
