FGA13 Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Until the end of last week I didn't know if I could go to the concert, but I finally got the ticket! and I wanted to tell you that I have been living in Madrid for work for a while now, so if you have any questions about transport or anything ask me and I will try to help!! I already know some of you in person thanks to Marbella and I hope to see you again, but I am also looking forward to meeting more fans! I don't know what plans you have for Friday, but I'll try to leave work after having lunch and I could meet up with some of you! 😊 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to be cooler on Friday now. But I don't mind it after the heat in Châlons. 🥵 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roxane Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Well, they answered me on Instagram… apparently all drinks will have to be bought with the wristband, even water (they didn’t directly answer my question, because I was specifically asking them about water, and they just said “you have to put money on the wristband and order your drink at the bar” 😐) So I asked them if we will be able to load less than 50€ on the wristband, but they haven’t answered yet… 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We probably won't know until we get there... I know Mika is singing on Friday, but since I will also be there on Saturday: The theme is "flow 2000 extreme". What do you imagine under it? Just dressing in the extreme 2000s style? Pink Power is much easier to understand. 😅 flow 2000 extreme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That really sounds like a scam, just earning money for literally nothing. But apart from the refund fee, nothing is confirmed I think. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if this is really true, they will upset the guests...

Could you guys use one wristband to order water for several people? In Cap Roig water had to be paid you couldn't get it for free But at least it was less expensive than in Monaco 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the drinks are so expensive that you will really need these 60 EUR. Personally, I would prefer to pay more for the ticket, this is just annoying and pointless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mellody Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 In one of the e-mails I think it said that buying the promo is the only way you can get drinks? That's not credible, it sounds to me like they want to do everything now to sell their drinks promo - but they can't actually refuse water to people, so I guess I'll just sit it out and assume that I will be able to get water when I'm there. I already had to pay 20€ extra to get my ticket nominated because when you bought it early you had to do that within 20 days (later it worked automatically) and I couldn't figure out at first that I needed to put my ID card number in "DNI", so I missed that deadline. I agree that it would have been better to charge more money for the tickets instead of all these pointless extra costs. 3 hours ago, crazyaboutmika said: Could you guys use one wristband to order water for several people? In Cap Roig water had to be paid you couldn't get it for free But at least it was less expensive than in Monaco At Cap Roig there was a proper toilet in a house, so there was free tap water. At least here the toilets on the map look like little houses, so maybe we're lucky that these are toilet containers with running water, and not just Dixie toilets. This is gonna be interesting, they really seem to have no idea what they're doing. I bet they will be completely surprised that people will be queueing for hours (btw, are Melanie C fans queueing as well? I've never been to one of her gigs but I could imagine she has some dedicated fans as well...) and trying to enter all at the same time / run to the stage. In one of their stories you can see how they're setting up the stage - and from how it looks so far, in the story and the drawing on the map, that stage will look impressive from afar but be completely unpractical for actually seeing the artists perform. I hope that at least the front part / catwalk (from the drawing on the map) isn't just cardboard decoration but that the artists can actually step on there. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the reasons why I'm not planning to queue very long this time. 🙈 I expect it to be a big chaotic lottery, so I'd just be annoyed if I was waiting since the morning only to end up in 4th row, like I had it for Mika ❤️ Paris. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holdingyourdrink Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 I think we can come to an agreement with Mel C (and any other not Mika fan) that we swap places at the barrier when our favourite comes on. I have faith in humanity! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
