Mikafish Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I'm standing too. Just a word about the whole front row thing, not that I expect if from MFCers but I understand that in the excitment anything is possible. PLEASE respect the order that people have queued and don't run and push to get to the front row. I know everyone wants to be right at the front by the barrier but don't turn it ino a scrum.

Ruth Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I'm standing. Front row. Just anyone try and stop me I actually keep forgetting about this gig (coz I very, very rarely go to gigs, like one every year or two years) and then I remember and I'm like, OH YEAH!!!! And it's only October! Me! Me is standing too. I'm standing too. Me too! Just a word about the whole front row thing, not that I expect if from MFCers but I understand that in the excitment anything is possible. PLEASE respect the order that people have queued and don't run and push to get to the front row. I know everyone wants to be right at the front by the barrier but don't turn it ino a scrum. Indeed. Someone fell in Blackpool - not one of 'us' but she'd queued ALL bloomin' day and was being rushed by the crowd behind her. It wasn't fair. Mind you, who puts a step in the way in a low-lit room?

Nollaig Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I really have no idea what to expect of this gig. Most gigs I go to, I'm sitting. The only three standing ones I've been too are Velvet Revolver and Goo Goo Dolls x 2. The Goo Goo Dolls gigs were epic, I was nowhere near the front of the queue for either gig, but everyone just sorta moseyed in, and I just walked right up to the barrier both times, there were massive gaps and no one filling em. It was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nollaig Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Trust me. There will be no massive (or even tiny) gaps near the barrier at a Mika gig! I sorta guessed that But realistically, I won't actually mind not being near the front. I'd rather be in the middle with a bunch if MFC-ers than alone at the front, you know? We should totally make an MFC flag and bring it with us. There's people flying in from HOW many countries for this gig? It's a major event!

Mika Mad Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Yes I am 14 and please dont scare the sh*t out of me! Ring the venue and check. It said over 18s only for Birmingham in 2007 so I rang the venue to check. They said it was ok and I took my 7 year old daughter. I would ignore what it says on the ticket and the agency website, the only opinion that counts is the venue, because they'll be the one with the final say on the night when you get to the door! Good luck, I'm sure you'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blossom Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) I'm not sure, is that right? All it says on Ticketmaster is Over 18s - ID required I think (and seriously hope) they'll allow under 18s in if they're accompanied by an adult. I've been to loads of concerts that have had that set up and have never encountered any problems. Edited October 18, 2009 by Blossom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to loads of concerts that have had that set up and have never encountered any problems. I really hope so too. If that is the usual set up though then it should be fine! I didn't mean to alarm anybody, just thought it would be best to bring it to everyone's attention as I for one did not learn about this until today!

Surely someone working for Ticketmaster or The Olympia realises that he has a lot of fans who are under 18 years old... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
