    Yeah I thought it might be a bit stiffer while they get used to everything but was just wary of the heavy setup and rehearsal making them seem too disconnected. It’s not much but those little smiles and points go a long way for me, got one at my first ever gig and it’s nice to know they know we’re there 😅

    Hmm ok, I’ll have to find some video to see how far he goes on either side. Things’ll inevitably be a smidge different with the stadiums but it’ll still give me a rough idea. Gonna try and get on one again (shame it’s not during a song I actually like anymore, like) ❤️

    Thankya!

    Which song is it during?

    by b-stage do you mean the end of the walkway?

  2. It’s worth pointing out that for those of us in the UK, if you paid on a credit card you may be able to use section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act. It makes the credit card company jointly responsible for resolving breach of contract. There are some exceptions and It may be that because we had to buy through Ticket Master and not CID it may not apply. Of course it may all be resolved by then and UK dates may have early access honoured. Important to note though that they only say early access before doors so evidence you would need is entry not being allowed before advertised doors time I imagine.

    I counted our line about 10 mins before we went into the building and there were 70 give or take a few.  About 10 of these ended up being separated out bc they had seats.  I also was sort of keeping track of the top-tier VIPs as they checked in and it was a larger number - maybe 80?  But keep in mind a larger percentage of those people have seats.  When we got inside the building and were lined up on the concourse, there were about 40 top-tier VIP in front of us to go down to the floor.

    Ofc I have no idea if they have a hard cap on the number for sale or if it fluctuates with each gig.  I would kind of think 100 is a good estimate of total floor VIP. 

    Thanks, good to have an idea, I have 2nd tier which I only bought for the early access but with all the controversy of early access not being honoured I’m trying to understand how much it matters. In my mind if the vip queue is only around that many then you should be able to get a good spot even if entering at the same time as GA. for me, I’m going to Bristol and the plans imply a golden circle presumably based on first come first served (like I experienced at Foos London Stadium). If this is the case it feels like it should not be a problem if they continue to not honour early access. It’s still not acceptable though as they are sellling something they are not giving. Although reading the tweets from CID it sounds to me like they are counting on not breaking contract as long as they let you in even seconds before advertised doors time. They are using the same language and insisting they are letting in before doors time. There’s nothing stopping GA being let in a min or two early as technically CID aren’t saying you get in before GA (just before advertised doors time).

    last question, do you get the poster/lunch box before entry and therefore able to take it back to your car to store? Or are you stuck with it inside?

    this is a good description, but in dallas, there was no delay.  They let GAs into the bowl at the same time as the top-tier VIP.  I was at the front of the line of the 2nd-tier group and there were about 40 top-tiers total in front of us.  By the time I got far enough past the section entrance to see the lower bowl and the floor, there were already GAs streaming in from the other side.  At this point there were about 20 people still in front of me going down the steps (it was a single-file line). 

    Do you have an idea of how many 2nd tier there were? To give an idea of how many of these tickets they are selling. 

  5. Could anyone give an idea of how many VIP people there were in the queues? Each tier if they were clearly separate? With the chaos of early entry I am wondering how important it is to get a good spot in the VIP queue. I originally thought it wouldn’t matter too much. But the only reason I forked out for the ridiculously expensive tickets was for early access. They know this, if they didn’t then they are saying a poster and lunch box is worth more than a gig to see them. 

    Anyone heard of VIP ticket holders not getting into the golden circle as it is full? I haven’t yet, don’t misinterpret that, I don’t want to start that rumour!

    ive read a lot of people saying VIP tickets shouldn’t exist and the people buying them are the problem. I absolutely agree that it is a money grabbing move by the industry and I was disgusted at the price and don’t agree with it. However, unlike a lot of the current generation I don’t spend money on tv packages and expensive phones/contracts, Prime etc. So I don’t consider myself to be one of the “rich” people a referring to that buy the VIP tickets, genuine fans buy them too.
