Going from their last O2 Arena gig (NME big gig) I would say everyone here could have 10 tickets each and there'd be spare

Regarding someone saying seating tickets will be cheaper...

Isn't it the done thing for seating to be the more expensive? From past experience with any venue standing is cheaper and seats are considered the more expensive option... I reckon standing will be the £20 bracket and seats £30 surely?

yeah i know what you mean. £20 odd quid is pretty cheap for a standing ticket if that's the case. aren't the standing tickets normally the first tickets to sell out with most gigs?! i dunno, maybe the crap seats at the back would be the cheaper option? I've never been to the o2 so have no idea about layout, apart from the fact that it's pretty big...

Yeah, I kind of assumed the cheaper tickets would be for the seats way up in the gods and/or with restricted view.

I keep changing my mind about whether to sit or stand! I think I'd rather stand though.

I hope I bump into people who I recognise there because I'm currently going by myself.

The cheap seats will be the back corners.

Here's my view from one of them, watching Queen

I shall attempt this, somehow. And if I can't make it I shall book the day off from work anyway and have a Manics Day! Also, get lost NME saying Postcards 'didn't set the world alight'.
