Queue for people with tickets is moving - slowly, now doors are open.

They are only letting a few people in at a time as they are searching everyone thoroughly (in the building next door).

Patience required.... It's now 7.41...!

They are searching?

If you have a phone, will you be let in?

Is it taken off you??

Do we have any idea yet how many people without tickets are likely to get in? I was planning on going tomorrow but can't get there until about 3.30 so I'm just wondering whether or not I'll get in

Oh my god, the first 100 in tonight are getting an intimate gig!

Dont think that happened...change of plan maybe.


See, I just don't think that was a fair idea. I know some in the 'to buy' line have waited since stupid o'clock, but folk actually with tickets will b queuing from very early in the morning too, just so they can get up front. If I had waited from ?am & had actually purchased my ticket, I'd be spitting feathers at security for letting 100 of the other line in first! I think those who already have their ticket should be in first, as happened tonight. Or open both doors together? I dunno, but better not get there tomorrow, queue for 11 hours 2 get up front & then the unticketed folk get in first. I'll not be a happy bunny.

We're in! 8.10pm

Joined the queue at 7.20 so not too bad!

Security was pretty efficient - they checked my tickets and ID, but not that closely!

SOOOOO excited now that we're in!!!

Do you people EVER stop moaning? The poor guy can't do anything right it seems...can't you just be happy for those 100 that saw something special instead of being so selfish?

Seeing as by all accounts everyone that Q'd without a ticket was going to get in, a 2nd show is a surprise. Be interesting to see how many attend.

Happened at KOKO...people who queued for 12 hours (or overnight) got 19 so s and 90 minutes...those that just rocked up a few hours before got 2.5 hours and 34 songs.

That as they say is cricket.

Yep - kick you out after a certain time and then let the next lot in or you can requeue for another £70

Exactly. I was at the 1st show at Koko. Tempted to go tomorrow, but would be just my luck that there wouldn't be a 2nd show tomorrow & would be a 4 hour drive for nowt...

I'm sorry... but a second feckin show!! mad

The reason I'm getting a taxi pick up in less 8hours was so I could travel, queue from a good hour to get up front & enjoy A FULL LENGTH CONCERT Saturday night!! Still got a bitter taste in my mouth from EB after getting 1hour of music & then chucked out for the next bunch who got a far longer & better performance. Luckily I saw cuz it was only £10 but P was a tiny dot in on the stage. Tell me how u think its fair Mr Nelson, for ur most devoted fans to queue up ten hours plus to get front row, then u fling us out knowing that the peeps have queued a couple of hours for a 2nd show will it be longer & better. Something stinks here. I'd not have planned this trip to leave so early in the morning if I'd know there was a 2nd show. I'd have spent the morning at least with my children. Who was it that said being a Prince fan was like being in an abusive relationship? wink and if ur offended by my venting, don't read it, jog on. mad

My eyesight isn't very good! lol
Met u in the street after EB Onecrush!
'ello again!

Sorry for self-combusting above, but I'll be so angry if Sat is a short first show.

However, something struck me... There r still 150 tix for 1st show available?
What if P makes it an extra long show for everyone? So peeps get to see 1st & 2nd show?

I really am grasping at straws here! Ha ha

Apparently there isnt many people in the line for the second gig (not there myself, just getting this info off Twitter)

Not suprised really, seen as they're charging another 70 quid for admission.

Maybe not worth as much as in London but in Manchester £70 is a lot of money!

Us poor bloody northereners
