So has anyone heard of anybody who queued at a different entrance to their "gate allocation" and got in??

 

Haven't heard about that.. I think no one tried; simply because if you don't get it, you will have to move to the right gate and you'll lose your potentially good spot!

I wouldn't try myself!

 

Edit; Welcome back Jen! Glad dinner was good. :nice:

From Ian:

http://twitpic.com/i6w44 - Uncle Jay has arrived!

hey am back :) had chilli con carne and it was yum.

 

some tweets from a GA search. will it restore balance or not? :lol:

 

mrdaddycat: Girls aloud were amazing! :-) the sound in wembley is fantastic even as far away as we are http://twitpic.com/i6swi

 

alferdi: RT right on!!!! @vivacrew The only thing more horrific than girls aloud is death itself.

 

jenwen2000: coldplay fan on GA's performance lol RT vivacrewThe only thing more horrific than girls aloud is death itself.

 

DJWalker79: I have to admit it Girls Aloud were great, the girls can sing. 30 mins to Jay-z, not my taste but looking forward to it!

 

sheesidd: Chilling at Wembley w/ @EmilyKSalcedo. Just saw Girls Aloud, they sucked. Waiting for Jay Z!!!! http://mypict.me/Gr3K

 

_belle: I don't think some of wembley stadium appreciated girls aloud. Stupid music snobs.

 

gasheaduk: Girls Aloud have finished. Just got to endure Jay-Z before I get to hear some decent music again.

 

girlsaloudmedia: RT @maggiephilbin Wondering y Girls Aloud made their backing singers wear huge clown trousers. Maybe to make themselves look even skinnier

 

benpeers: Bye bye Girls Aloud. Hopefully Jay-Z will be less...piercing

 

thepando: Girls Aloud set was very good, the crowd certainly appreciated the set. Jay-Z next, then Coldplay.

 

tminator: Girls aloud are now off. Jay-Z next up. Now a mass exodus off people.

 

Beegale: watching the sun set whilst girls aloud take on wembley. god love 'em they sound like banshees

 

TotalCherylCole: RT @themib: Last song: The Promise. Fuck me, Girls Aloud just killed Wembley Stadium!

 

loopingstar: Good evening from wembly stadium . Girls aloud are rocking the house - i dont think !

 

sofiaz: Watching girls aloud at wembley. Clearly no1s realised theyre on so early as the stadiums v empty!

 

Hey Jen :nice:! Glad you enoyed your meal, and thanks for the updates!

 

Uncle J in tha hizzeeih!

Welcome back Jen, glad dinner was yumme :wacky:

Hahaha, lol@ how many times the vivacrew tweet about GA was RT'ed :lol:

Thats really bad organizing. :D All the gates should open in the same time... And you get there at 7am and you dont end up in front row...

 

I can't remember the last event in England which was organised in a fair and logical way, in fact I don't think I've ever been to one :( Manchester wasn't TOO bad, but one queue (our one luckily) got in first for no apparent reason, and then there was the usual fiasco of LRLRL not being handed out...

It isn't just England. The same happened at the Duesseldorf show.;)

Same happened in Munich too ... it wasn't THAT bad though

not so much which gate was opened first but how it was organised. Angie had spoken to the security at the queue for gates H&J. before the doors opened, they told her the people at the front of that queue were to be sent to the turnstiles at gate H, those further back in the queue would go to gate J (which is where the front of the queue was! grrr). also, gate H was further away from the stage than gate J.

 

so I don't know what actually happened, but that doesn't sound good.

 

Ian was at the queue for M&N and it sounded like carnage there. people were standing up & running when the se3curity were telling them not too, and then getting to the search turnstiles, and chucking banned bottles everywhere so they could get through & run for stage.

 

sounds like a complete nightmare to be honest.

think it wasn't handed out at the beginning. a work colleague was towards the end coming of of LCCC and he got a stack of LRLRLRLRLRLRLRLRL

Same in Norway last year, but it was that bad either.

Given that, I'm actually glad I'm not there.. Must have been hell! Plus you've been there all day long and you see people, who've been there for maybe an hour, end up closer to the stage than you do. That's the most frustrating thing ever!

Guess it happens in every show. One of the boxes of LRLRL was stolen in Udine and the guy that was in front of me nearly slapped the girl who was giving LRLRL away.

 

 

 

 

 

Hate when this happens. Ive got to go... Will be back later. I hope not too late.

I'm starting to wish I'd accepted the VIP tickets I was offered with free bar, waitress service, Indian head massage etc. Just a shame those tix were behind the goal at the other end of the stadium :(

^ :O!

But I understand you though, people arent going for massages and free bar, we're going for the music!!

 

Bye Antonia, see you later :nice:!

if you go for unreserved seats, its sounds fine. spoke to ian about 4:20pm and there was no longer anyone coming in and loads of decent seats near the stage free. only big queue then was 20+ mins for the cash machines

That's right I think Jen - I didn't see a single person handing out cds at the end, but then I saw some people leaving with whole handfuls. I guess as long as the staff get rid of the allocation they've done their job :( They really should hand you one CD as you get your ticket scanned - it's rather pointless Chris talking about the free CD during the gig when 90% of the people I saw leave Manchester didn't have one in their hands.

Bye hun! See you later! :hug:

Well that's my day set then! :dance:

someone remind me to watch Jonathan Ross tonight please. Uncle Jay's on it

I'll try and remember it. :nice: What time is it on?

Well that's my day set then! :dance:

 

only minor concern I have is the difference between fri when peeps are still at work & sat

OK, another question. Was anybody's ticket checked prior to going through the turnstiles??

From Ian: http://twitpic.com/i6xzx - Confetti cannons near the back of the stadium! This whole place is going to be COVERED!

Confettiii :D
