Ticket for a gig

Walkerie · 8 Apr 2012 at 15:23

Hi all, just been bought a ticket to go to see Coldplay in Sunerland, its General Admission, Ive never been to a gig before so how does it work? the earlier I arrive the further towards the front I get? anything else to be wary of? anyone know times that people start queing etc?

its GA you can stand where the hell you want if you push hard enough

Its a coldplay gig so i cant imagine having too much trouble forcing yourself to the front

Mental people will probably be queuing at about 9 o clock in the morning.

I'd just reccomend arriving for doors opening so you can avoid the queues and you should still be able to work your way near the front, It isn't hard.

Fancy admitting to Coldplay.
You should have told fibs OP.

Hmm, five years ago i'd have been happy to go see them, but off the back of the last two albums, you'd have to pay me to go.

Just push your way to the front. Will only be old people and depressed youngsters anyway.

Sorry if you fall in to one of those catergories, just sorry.

You'll easy get to the front If your pushing/moving on your own , it's when your with someone else that it becomes a nightmare

Just don't be one of those people who rushes to get to the front and then spends the gig whining at me when I'm stood in the pit because they're getting pushed :rolleyes:

Even saying you're going to see Nikki Minaj would have gone down better

Whoever sold you the tickets, let the police know and give them any phone numbers/e-mails etc.

We're here for you dude, sorry someone has taken advantage of you

You mean a (usually fat) female?

One idiot at an outdoor gig told me to stop jumping up and down in my wellies!

Happy to know I'm not the only one who thinks they're absolutely ****.

Well it's coldplay so I doubt there will be much of a 'pit'.

I think you need to read the OP, he's not going to see Lamb Of God.
