Haha at more than one Manics gig security have grabbed me and told me to slow down in case I hurt myself I've mastered a way of running fast without tripping after being late for lessons/trains etc so often!

[franny]

Yeah cos being at the barrier won't involve bumps and bruises at all. We're used to a battering.

and if you're on Sky, you can go to a VIP bar.

I'm on O2 and Sky

[Mary Chain]

There's only one door to standing; I reckon everyone is probably F

Haha, this was my funniest barrier run ever. Can't wait to do it again. No, really...

[y2kyle16]

Mines standing and i am on E.

They take ur physical ticket off you, and give you a wristband so you know...

You might want too change the "im on E" bit

[franny]

Reminds me I need to get an o2 phone, priority queuing's a joke but maybe this time they'll actually check.

[UEF]

Probably leaving o2 this christmas - the odd priority ticket and smaller queue isn't worth having fuck all signal and rubbish data rates year-round!

So they do actually use that then? I've been to some O2 venues that do use it and others that don't. I can't even remember what I did for Lady Gaga at the O2, but I wasn't bothered about being at the front for that, so I think I just casually strolled in.

[y2kyle16]

yes - straight through - no queues.
