I've just realised that my ticket is under my married name, but my photo ID is still in my maiden name - will this cause a problem do you think?
Also, does anyone know what time the 10c distribution box will stay open til as I'm not currently planning on getting into London til around 4pm.

yeah, that's going to be a problem.
email/call 10c to tell them about it and I'm sure they'll sort it out.
distribution should be open until the gig starts I'd think.

I'm pretty certain Conguita and Einat were the first in Barcelona.

yes... i think it might

i'd email 10club now and inform them of it and maybe bring a photocopy of the marriage certificate... overkill i know, but I'd rather be safe about it

I think I'm gonna bring a few sandwiches with me in the queue.

No dilema for me. I won't be lining up early as I will be stood at the back since my wife will be 6 months pregnant! Hey, at least I can go for a couple of beers before the show instead of queing for hours

Congratulations man - my wife gave birth 3 months ago to our son. She was 4 months pregnant at the time of the Barcelona gig last year so couldnt make it - u are braver than us!

Definitely a good idea... I completely forgot about that for the Dublin queue last year... and had to nick other peoples food

Anyone know if there are shops in the area? There was nothing nearby in Dublin which was a problem.

Its a shitty area of town... no shops near where you line up. A few near the tube station. If you need booze then get it well before...

By the way - head towards the stadium from the tube... u cant miss it.,... its HUGE!!!!!! (Wembley Arena not so much )

I used to be able to see the arch from my old work, which was 6 miles away! Beautiful stadium.

There isn't much in the vicinity of the arena, so early birds (not unlike myself) are advised to bring something rather than look around.

I swapped my 10c standing for 10c seating, just emailed 10club and explained .. that I had just discovered I was pregnant and would be 6mths pregnant by the time the show was on so standing in the madness was a no no
Can't wait to see how the little lunatic in here reacts when the show starts

Hiya missus,
Nope I wasnt the last time I just pulled a serious whitey and spent all of the dublin gig in the first aid area at the back of the stage on a trolley with an oxegen mask on my face , hyperventilating and going into muscle spasm.
Was a bit horrific. Was gutted over missing practically the whole damn show.
Made up for it at Reading though when arrived into the gig during Placebo, waited for the break between Placebo and PJ and then trawled our way through all them punters to make our way to the front.
And we made it .. sure we were up beside some of you - have a pic of byrnzie up there actually.

I wasnt' at reading :(

Congratulations!!!! :D:D Best gig for the sprog to be at! And you have the good 10C seats... you'll see perfectly!

The Sneaky One

I was just wondering that about the 10club seats.. where they would be n stuff, and would i still end up at the back because of 10club priority and such stuff.
