To see Bryan Adams :j
I was not prepared to pay nearly £70 for tickets as we can't afford it at the moment.
So I entered a comptition in my local freebie paper. And this morning got a envelope with my tickets in it. They might only be standing tickets but who cares.
I am rather gob smacked and so happy as I enter loads of competitions but don't rarely get a win.
So I will keep entering the local competitons and see what I win.
:j :j :j :j :j
I going to see Bryan, Bryan, Bryan, Bryan, Bryan LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That man is a god. I must have missed that one. Last time I saw him was CIA in Nov 2004.
I reckon I have seen him at least 6 times in the last 13 years. I love when he does the B stage thing. If you have never seen him concert before you don't know it is coming. But for us old hands we know. I always look around when I arrive to see if there is a B stage.

Standing tickets are better than nothing. But if I had the money to buy myself I would always buy seating. As it is a long time to be stood up a the gates open up at 5pm and he is not on stage until 7pm.
Yes I am young and fit. But I am not use to being stood up for at least 5 hours in one go by the time we have waited in the queue and during the concert. Also as it is a football stadium means there is some cover as well.
When I last saw Bryan Adams at the CIA I had to stand and I had the whole concert ruined by some big mouth twenty somethings behind us who talked almost all the way through the concert and for to me hear that over a music means they where loud and annoying.
What annoyed me the most when I asked them to be quiet as I had not paid £32 a ticket to listen to them all I got was why can't I talk to my friends, Blah, blah and they never shut up. And my husband said that others around us kept looking at them did nothing and did not even back me up. And we left before the end. As the evening had been ruined for me.
When I have had seats I have never had such problems. As with out wanting to be ageist it tends to be the older and families with younger members who pay the extra for the seat so you get less trouble.
That is why I prefer seating tickets. But beggars can't be choosers as I could not afford to pay for any tickets to see him. I am happy to have won and to be going. Which if I had not won I would not be.
