    I honestly can't believe how quickly this has all happened. Tickets went on sale yesterday, the show is in less than 4 months...my limited brain power can't comprehend it all!

    How doin......

    First Post on here, although I have been a fan for many years this is my PJ cherry. :shock:

    So, whats the craic with the gig? Is there a first come- first served deal with a pit down the front? Or are the GA's just all mingling together on the floor with no barriers.

    Personally I canny wait, as you can imagine. Got the Albums, DVD's T-shirts..... 1st gig....

    Arriving the Monday afternoon, got a hotel close to the MEN, and heading around Manchester for a few beforehand and a few post gig refreshments in the hotel, so looking forward to it.

    I hope you all have a good trip on yer Fun Bus to London.

    ;)
    I have wished for so long. How I wish for you today.

    The venue has said it's a no early entry gig so I should think it'll be a case of quite a few people queuing all day to get to the front. Others aren't so bothered so will probably make their way to the venue nearer door opening time.
    I think they're doing the same as Wembley in 2007 - the floor area is 10c only.

    Dude, you should sooooooooo come to the pub before the gig! It'll be a great introduction for your first PJ gig! :mrgreen:
