The great O2 wristband challenge!

Anyone still got their orange wristband on?

Well I do and its not coming off until they release the next album. I'm deadly serious. Today the missus berated me for the fact that I still hd it on but I refuse to wear a certain metallic band that is suppose to symbolise eternal union or something.

Let's do it people!

I cut mine off when I got home and also absent mindedly cut through my Elmakias lens bracelet which I was really pissed off about. Stupid O2 Arena and their stupid wristbands.

I pulled mine off when I got home but I'll put it back on in a few minutes and keep it on haha! Still don't understand the venue's thinking in taking our tickets off us, morons. I was really annoyed cos I keep all my tickets from gigs and frame them on my bedroom wall. I did get a ticket on my way out, some goon was handing out tickets willy nilly so I grabbed one from him and thought "what was the bloody point in taking them from us in the first place?"

I've still got mine! It's loose enough to slide on and off so I took it off to shower.

It's pretty common at gigs....they give them back precisely because people want one.
