Degrassi41 Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Camera men and security are really the only 'obstructions' you need to worry about if you get right up at the barrier. You may have to crane your neck back to see them when they're up on the towers but other then that it's a pretty clear view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it's a massive venue like Wembley, the first night I couldn't see Matt for shit, had to crane over a load of people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 This might be a stupid question, but if I was at the barrier and had my phone in my pocket, do you think it'd get crushed? *just wanna be sure, it was expensive* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikite Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Okay thanks. I dunno why, but that just popped into my head when I woke up Just make sure you don't lose it! I never put it in my pocket because if I jump or something, it could fall because of other people jumping really next to you.

I'll figure something out Now that I think about it, my phone was in my pocket last concert I went to, and I was in the pit... Didn't get crushed, didn't fall, but I have a new phone now and it's bigger so I dunno... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had my iPhone in my front jeans pocket (which is kind of deep) at the Vegas gig and I was right at the barrier. After the crowd pressing against me and the jumping around, my phone was fine. On the other hand, I have read on these boards of people losing their phones to pickpockets at gigs, as well. If you don't want to risk it and don't have a strong need for a phone at the gig, maybe you could leave it at home.

Pip Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Bear in mind also that gigs are great for pick-pockets. Happened to my son (he was 18 at the time), his phone was removed from his pocket and he didn't feel a thing in the general crush of the pit even though the pocket was deep. I use a small bum bag and shove it under my t-shirt, it's just big enough for phone, tickets, money, camera and keys and if you put a few tissues in the outermost part it will cushion breakables if you get on the barrier.

A small camera case with a long strap works too -- you can carry just the essentials and sling the strap over your shoulder with the bag in front. (Credit Behnaz/roya for this one!)
