No Banter_ Just Wembley Arrival Times And Queue Strategy!

London_Jam

Well - maybe SOME banter is acceptable but only after this has been sorted!!

With the tickets available for pick up at 12 noon (10 club obviously) what will be the best thing.

Of course, if you line up next the entrance you lose your place when it comes to collecting the tickets. Or do you line up at the ticket collection and then when you pick up your tickets you make your way to the entrance to take your place in the line (obviously behind those who were in front of you at the ticket collection point)?

And after this question is sorted out exactly HOW early do we have to be to ensure being down the front (or as near as possible)?

10C tix come in pairs... make sure you arrive with the person getting your other ticket, one queues in the general queue and the other in the 10C one! Go out all night, don't go to bed, make your way to Wembley when the clubs have shut (and the first tube starts), then get in the queue and sleep..... Sorted... now... back to the garden...

lol - its not new... i did it in Marseille and Barcelona last year!

But people are not seriously thinking about lining up at 9am are they?

replace entrance with entrances and you see there's no solution or guarantee, no matter how early you're there, to get to the barrier.

and anyway, there's so many of us that if you agree on something, if everyone is following it it will solve absolutely nothing.

i say chill and watch the whole spectacle from the back of row Z...

you mean getting everyone to go down the pub.. then sneak out and be at the front of the queue whilst everyone else is drinking? (see Dublin)

We're not so fussed about being as close as humanly possible. Like we did last year, we want to get to a rail of some sort, if its at the front then it's cool but we liked the centre parting rail so we try and go for that. My girlfriend panics if she's too squashed so we don't want that.

But this is a different situation because there's so many 10c members this time all aiming to get to the front. No way im going there for first thing in the morning though, i want good sleep the night before!

the question is do you BOTH have to be there when the 10c member gets the tickets ?

3) Each Ten Club ticket buyer will receive 2 general admission tickets and 2
wristbands for entrance to the arena floor.

do they just give you the tickets and wristbands, or do they give you the tickets and put the wristbands on ?

You don't both have to be there. The person who has the tickets in their profile has to be there to show I.D. so the other person can wait in the queue for you.

From my experience, they just give you the wristbands rather than putting them on you.

Yeah.. well my strategy at Dublin was having HH queue for me and me back at the pub drinking,but... had to go see her and give tix and they wouldn't let me out again!!!!! So had to queue with HH......

Release Me.. I hate the centre parting rail.. do they have that at Wembley?

I believe it's something that Pearl Jam either bring with them or insist on for their GA shows these days. I like it because it breaks the crowd in half which helps lessen the squashing.

Double post. :(

I like the centre railing.

I prefered the set up at Dublin, with a seperate area at the front for 10C members and a few GA people...but obviosly that area is the entire floor at this show.

shootenany!

I don't get into London until about 2.30pm, so I doubt I'm going to be at the very front of the queue...damn my non-refundable non-changeable train tickets.

Really not fussed about being right at the front for this particular show. I won't get too many chances to be in an all-10c section. No chance of any passenger drop-ins around me this time.

skippy at a gig

Mines a simple tactic, Arrive at 17:55 collect ticket and wristband since all 10c tickets will have been collected by then, Walk to Enterance at 17:56 see 3K 10C members tap each one on the shoulder saying I'm with them pointing to someone vague in the distance (All ways works at festivals).

Thing is I'm getting to old to be crushed at the barrier but like a good mosh so somewhere in the middle of the floor will do me fine.

Any ideas how many 10c members will be on the floor.
Back in 95 at the tennis centre in Melbourne Aus the night after the seats were ripped up and security were sacked a standing area was created and was only 3/4's full (Had tickets for row 10 and ended up at the barrier. Knowing PJ's crush prevention policies I could see this being the case again.

I think someone posted a seating plan a few weeks ago, and only about two-thirds of the floor will be standing (the 10c section) and then down the two sides of the soundboard will be seats. So i'll make a guess of about 5-6,000 10c members on the floor, if that.

We were about half-way back on the floor for the Lisbon II show last year and we couldn't always see too great but we had enough room to jump and dance, so that's what i'm looking for again this time.
