There was no safety issue, and at a concert like that you are never going to prevent people standing up and enjoying themselves. And if there were some sort of emergency, its every man for himself anyway - the aisles would soon fill up even if they were not previously full.DazzerUKUK wrote:>I'd just like to say that all the uptight dicks who paid 125 quid for tickets then sat there looking miserable deserve all they get. So sorry if we surged forward and actually enjoyed ourselves. Ever heard of standing up at gigs? Ever heard of giving a little? The security were actually very professional and good about it all.
On a serious note, it's the safety issue that concerns me when this happens. Blocked escape routes and crowd surges can have serious consequences if something goes wrong.
It may be fun to push everyone out the way and challenge security, but it was obvious that they were seriously under-staffed last night in terms of stewarding and event management.
Thankfully, nothing went wrong and a good time was had by most!

No-one in the A-Block lost their seat, they simply had to stand up in order to see the show properly. However many in the £125 seats decided to sit there looking sour faced, whilst the commoners revolted and actually had a really good time.
Just goes to show that money can't buy you happiness.
