About this queing business.

For those who have been so far you will know about the big debate. The 'solution' of handing out raffle tickets is at this stage merely a sticking plaster solution which is as good or as bad as anything else. The one way out of this is to have numbered seats with our npgmc seats and then there will be no problems, also it would give Prince some new faces to look at!. I have no doubt that npg will have picked up on this and will fix it for the presales to come.
So what we have in place is a tempory fix.
As for anybody that has the decency to arrive early and stay there all day to hand out tickets and keep a good vibe going DO NOT GET ON THEIR CASE. Anyone in the que at Manchester on the 8th will know what i am talking about. There are way too many variables for any other other system to work, as for the guy who gave Kim such a hard time yes you do have a point but unless anyone can come up with a better solution then this is better than nothing.
I have qued for standing floor space at wembley stadium and Brixton and the amount of pushing in that happened there was a nightmare, at least with this there is a bit more order.
Lets just all hope that numbered seats are coming soon, afterall just how hard can it be to allocate a seat number!.
Peace.

Hi Javed, you're quite right, but I've decided that Karma will play her card and those who gave the negativity will get it back twice as hard, likewise those who sent good vibes will recieve positivity, twic over, we all know who wer'e talking about, let's move on now and hope we all meet again on another fantastic night. headbang

The worse thing about a queue is getting there early and waiting in line, only to find people coming throughout the day and joining there mates further up.Defeats the purpose of the whole thing.

If all people behaved in a decent manner we wouldn't need a list/system on the night, but the fact is they don't.

The raffle ticket system did weed out some queue jumpers.Mr Viera, Petit, Henry & Zidane along with Ms Osbourne (Names have been changed to protect their real identities).

If the reward for the guys who did the organising all day and put up with the crap on the day and subsequently are front row seats. GOOD LUCK TO 'EM.

Besides they must have got there early in the first place to implement the system, in which case they would have got in first anyway.

If I turned up early, and someone gave me a raffle ticket and told me I was at the back, I'd tell them to fuck off !
This is the most stupid thing I've heard in ages.
The only solution to all this moaning is for you to relax and enjoy yourselves, and for fans who've been at the front too many times (they know who they are!) to be more conciderate of other fans.
