Decision time - any perspectives?

Hi All,

Just as soon as I get tickets, I've found out I'm likely to need to work abroad during either one (or two) of the shows I have booked. I'm trying to negotiate a compromise, as we speak.

Firstly, if I am able to get to see one of the shows, which would you recommend seeing? And secondly, are these seats actually any good? I've had next to no time to sift through what's the best seating arrangement.

Any help/thoughts would be much appreciated.

My only criteria in deciding which main arena shows to attend was that I wanted a low-key night, as opposed to a Friday or Saturday show, primarily because I think it's possible he'll be more loose, relaxed and in a sense, carefree. Without the need to perform to a baying crowd expecting their Friday or Saturday night's entertainment, he may just enjoy it more on his own terms. At the end of the day, I guess it's whichever space he's in on the night.

Anyway, as luck would have it, I may not see him for any of these shows now. You can guess how I am feeling...

Anji

Hey Sammy, it's been a while. Hope you're well.

You make an excellent point regarding VIPs but generally speaking, and given the standard operation of these ventures (especially places like the 02), VIP sections tend to be bought out in bulk by various corporate media companies (with the exception of fans who are usually in the minority overall). Speaking from my own experience, VIP suits get given their tickets on a plate and most don't necessarily appreciate what's in their hands.

I think the vibe will come from the crowd who have paid themselves, most of whom will only be spending £31.21. In other words, the atmosphere will come from the regular party going crowd (not VIPs).

I could be wrong though.

I have the same BK 106 Row S seats for the week before biggrin

Check out the seating plan since it's been modified...

There's not really a whole lot in it, except that Row K is better than Row S.
I think they're both pretty good selections compared to what I've seen a lot of other people getting.

I think with the amount of shows that he's playing in succession, especially as they're at the same venue, that they will ultimately all be similar in feeling, regardless of whether it's a weekday or weekend.
