    think I must be in the minority as I thought his performance in the producers was very OTT... would have been a fab show without him tbh.. mind you that might have been down to morons in the crowd shouting the usual.. 'garlic bread' etc etc.. but he responded and played up to it... :rolleyes:

    anyway.. never seen him doing his comedy routine before so will look forward to it.. from the gods up on the second tier... :o

    There are few hotels near the O2, and the transport links are not that great either!.

    the metrolink is hell on earth when big gigs are on at the MEN :rolleyes:

    I just adored seeing him live on stage tbh, I thought the man playing the lead role was most definitely the star of the show.

    It is, it's right next door. And pretty much brand new too.

    I love Peter Kaye and would love to see him. Didn't get the tickets but to be honest would have only accepted near to the front it really is a bad venue - its huge - the upper tier is scary!! I was surprised at the choice of venue for a comedian - music is ok but I now would only chose here if no other choice. Sheffield is much better!!!

    Does anybody who knows the MEN buy seats in the upper tier - unless they are selling on Ebay?? Ive never been up there - too scared!!! I hate heights and not only is is high but the slope is great - from below it is so steep!!! I dont want to be a spoilsort, and I know the stage is in a different position to when bands are playing, but from my experience this is not a good seat to have and u shouldnt be paying anywhere near what the people with the goods seats have paid!!! I think someone is having a laugh at someones expense!!

    Ticketmaster and ebay have a lot to answer for!!!!

    Upper tier isn't as bad as it sounds. The O2 upper tier is far bigger and more scarier than the one at the MEN. It's a smaller at the MEN too so you don't feel like you're going up (or down) lots of steps to get to your seats... there's less area to be finding your way around without handrails. You'll still enjoy it whatever.
    Yes, you'll probably be sick that the people on the front row paid the same as you but do you really want tickets to do like other acts and charge ridiculous fees... on the plus side you'll be able to see the stage unlike the back floor seats if the person in front is taller than you, even sat down.
    Hope this helps...you're a lucky one who got tickets.
