    It certainly isn’t just a British crowd thing. The pit in Krakow was also rough and I know at other shows too. One of the worst experiences I’ve had at a pj show was Amsterdam night 1 in 2014 when I did venture to the pit. The experience scared me - people were unnecessarily rough, pushing their way into a space already over full, people shoving and being very aggressive, and wearing bloody rucksacks which in this case just kept hitting me in the face. I ended up fighting (almost literally) my way out and burst into tears with relief. 

    I find in the majority PJ crowds (whether 10C members or not) are good people. 


    Wow.. Amsterdam 1 '14 is my least favorite show ever.. In part because the crowd was so dead around me.. (floor, Mike's side..) I was so frustrated at the lack of energy that it negatively affected my experience..
    Crazy how different experiences can be!
    I would've thought as a Gooner you'd enjoy a dead crowd!  =)

    I would love it if they sacked off playing arena shows in England and just did two nights at Brixton for 10c members only.

    How much better would that be?

    The whole 10 Club show the night before an arena show thing was a good idea. I'd love to have a chance to see that stuff.
    When it comes to London, though, I wish they'd go back to playing Wembley Arena. I know O2 holds more people but that building is a fucking corporate void, man.

    That's ultimately why Leeds 2014 was a better show than this week's gig for me. The size and shape of the venue created an intimacy that you just can't get in the O2.

    So many comments comparing London to the Leeds show, which one was better etc. 

    For the record they were both fucking amazing. Happy to have been at both, and both wowed me for days after. 

    We are the lucky ones to have this band to follow still.........

    Wembley is a cesspit and is the worst venue to get to...and thats coming from a Londoner. Hate the place with a passion.

    Agree with @pdalowsky Not possible to call between Leeds and O2 night 2. Both special in their own right.

    Astoria '06 is still my highlight PJ show... that was unreal. I don't think we'll ever get a club show like that (or SBE '09, which was also great) again, the band is happy playing big arenas and festivals and, to be honest, I don't blame them at this stage in their careers.

    Leeds and O2 were special in their own way. One thing I would say, don’t play Wembley Arena. The acoustics are rubbish. The sound bounces off the walls.

    (nothing to do with how local it is to me) but there isnt a venue arena size in this country to rival Leeds.

    The Hydro in Glasgow is similar to Leeds, although the floor is bigger. I thought Leeds layout was perfect.
