Congratulations. It's been a rough run, as I understand.

Oh, thank you for that. I had been trying to work out what they were before all the extra toppings from the ticket companies.

Hampden, I assume?

[CaledonianGonzo]

No. The Mekong has no f**king signal.

[NorthernSoul52]

Back down the delta it is, then.

Not off - I'll be elsewhere - but just jumped into the queue for the second Wembley Show and found myself 55,000 punters back.

 

I appear to have dramatically underestimated demand here.

23,600 ahead of me in the day 2 Q so looks like no chance of pitch standing for the kids now!

I had 54000 ahead of me at 10:45 and just got on and got rear standing so I think there are a fair few left if the queue moves quickly

[NorthernSoul52]

Yeah, a good few thousand still there for now too.

[SwedgeAntilles]

I'm a big Lana fan, but this has surprised even me.

Hampden Park is also not an end-stage gig - it's against one long end of the pitch.

 

Is that normal for shows there?

Has been that way when Bruce has played it in the past. 

[NorthernSoul52]

Thank you. I'd be curious to see more gigs like that in stadiums. More of a natural bowl-style arrangement.

Yes, thank you. I meant to update. I did the same. Front standing was available but too much money for the kids!

Been to many gigs there over the past 18 years and only once have I encountered the "normal" stadium layout (RHCP in 2007... absolutely sh*te, I've never listened to them since).

 

Unfortunately although it seems like a good idea on paper, it makes for a pretty average gig. Seats either end are notoriously far away from the pitch, even for football, which means any seat that's not head-on is miles away from the action. The head on seats are fine but obviously more expensive. Standing feels very... wide...

 

Sound is woeful because the stage faces the higher stand - I think Springsteen and Don Henley both made the same joke - "We've played here before, I remember that echo..."

 

I really want to see LDR but Hampden has totally put me off. It will sound rubbish. 

 

(I realise that she's not going to play anywhere smaller again, but who knows, maybe Murrayfield next time, or Glasgow Green, or even the Hydro! This time just ain't worth the money...)

Weird times, seems like every potential punter wants to go to every f**king gig at the moment

resellers and the cult converge at the same time. And i am sure its more attractive to foreign attendees simply due to lower prices and standing. Cheaper to go to London than to see her in the states. And its hilarious that she is down bill at Stagecoach and yet is doing this.
