so basically i'm 17 years old and are as big a pj fan you can get. i've been nuts since like 7th grade. up to now i have gotten to see 4 incredible shows that have changed my life. well, an uncle in my family who is really MUCH wealthier then anyone else in my family called me up and surprised me that he's taking me to the london show to see pj!! london! and we're staying 6 days with my cousin as well .. london and paris. But i am sooo stoked to see pj in london! i live in ct, so a stop near me this year isn't too possible (besides philly, where my sister lives so'd i'd totally take the trip), so this london show confirms me seeing them! i cant believe it. pj in another country at 17! i didn't do this to be annoying i was just truly excited beyond belief so i need to share!

by the way .. :o if i had known .. i would have used my 10c tix .. but along with the surprise he got us vip o2 arena box seats! it holds like 25 fans all hanging out going nuts. its still practically conjoined with the crowd and NOT miles high up, but in the middle. gonna be SWEET.

    I understand your excitement. When I was 16 I had the good fortunes to have a family holiday in Seattle the week Foo Fighters were playing there. Was one of the best gigs of my life.

    Enjoy it :D

    I wish you all the luck and great fun on your London trip. Six days in London and PJ show. You ARE the Man. London is the coolest city on Earth. You will love it. You're in for the time of your life. ENJOY!
    I live in Connecticut, too, and I don't think we will be seeing them this year around here.

    i agree. except its not behind glass at all. its not anything of what you're thinking. look it up for the o2 arena .. on the sides of the arena are the typical fan seats .. above them are boxes .. above them are more seats .. now within the boxes there is a lounge area and such .. however, you walk out of it to a drop down balcony thats only a bit higher then the regular seats. and on this balcony is 25 standard seats at equal distance with the crowd rocking out. its sweet. its practically in the normal crowd .. just theres a little block off for 25 of you to have a bit of a better view and free drinks 8-) TRUST ME MAN .. if it was like you described (which many places are) i;d get the helllll out of there. my uncle and i made sure that wasn't even close to being the case
