Which one? How close to the stage did you get?

philly style

 

I was at the Philly show with about ten of my friends... we caught a 6:30 AM train into the city and camped out in our spots around 7:15. Thanks to that, we ended up being about 100 yards from the stage on the stage left/audience right side. We had a decent view of the stage, except for peoples heads, and an AWESOME view of the one jumbotron to our right (upon which we saw Coldplay do "In My Place"). Though we all came out of it a little sunburnt, it was quite the experience...

 

Anyone else in Philly for the show?

I was at the Philly show. I live within walking distance, so I just crossed over the Spring Garden bridge and also wound up about 100 yards from the stage even though I got there at 11:30 or so (except on the other side). I left for awhile to go home to get something to eat, and came back for the last few hours and got even closer than I was before, because a lot of people seemed to leave after the Dave Matthews Band.

i was at the barrie show. got really close, i think someone said it was like 20 feet or so. managed not to leave the crowd the whole day :lol: it was hell for my dad to get in and out. we were pretty close to the centre.

London (the good one ;)) Very close to the front of the "normal" section :snore: still pretty annoyed they segregated people from "VIPs" in this fenced off section for those who had paid or won a competition! Made for some crap ariel shots which surprisingly weren't shown on telly. Just a huge GAP between the two parties! Not pleased... :angry:

I was at the London gig, quite close and a bit to the left of the "normal people" section. I was really annoyed at that too and it did look really crap cos everyone was crammed in the "normal" part and then the people who paid didnt even fill the area and there was a massive gap. Still was an amazing gig, Coldplay were amazing as were the killers and razorlight and stereophonics. Although it would have been even better if Muse had been kept on the London bill.

Lucky bastards, you.

agreed.

The problem is I felt guilty for being there and NOT having a good time while there were millions at home going 'Oh, I wish I was there...' I just found it dull, to be honest...
