Just eventually got round to uploading a few videos from the concert in Auckland..... Temper Trap were excellent MX / HLH / In My Place Guy next to me seemed to get quite excited :)

Stunning show this evening, my best one yet!! Luckily it stayed dry. Temper Trap very good also. Crowd were absolutely mental and I am glad to say I was a part of it :) A girl next to me near the end was sad that her xylobands wasn't working, so ever the gentleman I gave her mine, she was really chuffed! :) Anyway I must calm down now and get on with the rest of my holiday - looking forward to seeing videos, sent Tash a few photos, unfortunately can't upload videos over here.

Will the show be on radio anywhere? Will anyone get a high quality audio recording of it? I still have a standing ticket available - at this rate I'll have to use it to go in, come out and go back in again to get an extra xyloband....

One standing/general admission ticket available for Auckland on the 10th. PM me if interested :)

Ok, so my friend is not coming now so I have a spare ticket if anyone is interested.... Offers. I am sooooooo gutted :(

Who else off here is going? I am in Singapore on my way there :)

Now less than two weeks to go until the show, I am packed and ready to fly out, I'm on the road all this week at work and leave next Saturday - just enough time to get over the jet lag!! Ordered new batteries for my xylobands, hopefully they are the right ones and they arrive before I go away....

Ahhh, I seriously can't wait for this one, only 4.5 weeks to go.... Found some videos from Sunderland and Manchester that I thought I had lost and if this one is anything like those it will be totally mental!! :D Maybe even worth flying for 30 hours to get to.... I even upgraded the size of my iPhone memory so I can record more video and take more photos :)

Had another incredible night last night, my family were totally shocked when I told them where we were going, they had an amazing time :) It was certainly a very different experience up in the seats, couldn't believe that people were going out and in and back again all evening... is it really too much to ask to put your life on hold for 2 hours to stop disturbing everyone else's experience, is it so important to go away for 5 minutes mid show to get another drink? :confused: Also, there seemed to be hundreds of people leaving at the back after In My Place... very strange. And I was astonished that the three people next to me left after Clocks to beat the traffic!!! Luckily we had parked right next to the gate so got out pretty much straight away, and only had to queue for 5 minutes outside before we were out of the traffic. The view was good though and the xylobands spectacular, I was worried that the sound wouldn't be as good being so far away but it was ok - not as good as standing though!

Oh great, was planning to park at the stadium itself, think it was gonna be £10. Will be coming in from Stockport around 7pm ish, I am not too bothered about support acts but parking is a must.... My family still have no idea they are going, can't wait to see their faces when I tell them late on tomorrow that we're not going home after all !! :)

Just arrived home, brilliant experience last night despite the rain which my phone has ingested as well, totally awesome, can't say in words how good it was!!!! :) Hopefully my voice recovers by Sunday evening....

Few very light showers, I am knackered and waiting for proper weather to hit.... Should move forward to next stage of queue at 3pm.... eugh!

After Madrid, I am prepared with full waterproofs!!!

Been an extremely pleasant morning sitting in the sunshine, just a matter of how long before it starts to rain.....

There are about 30 people here so plenty of space. I am the only one with a xylobands and everyone is amazed!!! :)

You might be lucky, still very few people here. Just picked our tickets up (can't until 1pm!!!) and am in queue A so am definitely at the front!! :) :)

Very few people queuing at GA queue A, we are right at the front, security have said it should be ok after we collect our tickets at 1pm :confused:

I am told that we can only pick our GA tickets from 1pm tomorrow and it'll be for entrance A or B - so what queue would you guys go to at 8am? Ideas anyone? Do we have a choice which entrance? Should one of us go to each entrance and switch when we get the tickets? (there will be two of us)

I'll drive down tomorrow evening, kip in the car and be at the stadium early doors with a bag full of food :) must be going mad.

A vEry long day of talks...... 10am to 3pm!!! Bar stewards!! Lock them in a room together and don't let them out until they agree!!!!!

Looks quite light still :(

You are mad!! :laugh3: :thumbsup: I am looking for a golden ticket for Paris on 2nd September!! Flight and hotel booked, I just need a ticket! :D

Enjoy!!!

Perfect- thanks. Know exactly where I'm going now.

So no parking at the stadium, where is the best place to park up for the whole day? Anyone any ideas?
