leetroot Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 There used to be a really good spot at the back of the standing are to each side of the bar in the middle of the 'upstairs' of the standing area which was like a little ledge above the crowd. That is a very good spot if you are at the back of the hall. I even watched a gig once from behind the bar as the view through it was still really good! Never been upstairs. The lady on the phone said that the sides of the balcony were not in the £200 VIP section. I think that is only on the main part of the balcony. There are only 8 rows in the main section according to the seating plan. Anywhere is going to be great as long as you don't get Mr Wide & Tall in front of you (as I often do!) and we are allowed to stand (and jump and sing and be generally ridiculous!)

cucciola19 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 i don't think we should queue early! I never been to the SBE but I would say queuing 5 hours and just arriving would not make the difference... maybe few meters difference, am I wrong?? I'm in level 2 seating, which is unreserved seating as well and I will be queueing. Probably not that early, but I'd like to get to the front of the balcony and it is Muse afterall so queueing early for a good spot is a given really. ? Yeah, definitely not queuing for hours, but I do want a good spot; I'll be checking in at the hotel around 5, then I will have a look at the venue and decide whether to start queuing or not.....I think.

Will_ Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Aww Can you not stretch to VIP seats? Keep checking TM, some might come up, especially if they haven't sold all the VIP seats just before. They may put them up for general sale. You never know. I can't really, no Maybe, I've given up really. I've still got the stadiums in May and June! Bit different but hey ho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be happy with anywhere in the permitted areas of level 1, really doesn't look to be a bad seat and the distance from front to back is very small Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trouble Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Don't stress, my card and id are in different names but according to SBE they won't check anything unless there's a problem i.e. your ticket doesn't scan, and then they'll just want to see the credit/debit card you used to purchase the tickets. Just make sure your printer is working ok! I really hope so. To be honest, it's ridiculous to expect anyone to carry their passport to a gig. I usually go with the bare essentials, as I have lost things at past gigs, and I would be really cross if I lost my passport. My printer is definitely fine. It would just be nice if Ticketmaster would allow me to print my ticket now. I want to print 2 copies and frame one (I have all my Muse tickets framed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
