JD™ Posted April 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 i got mine for cheaper than the list price in 2006 by waiting till the very last minute on ebay... as long as you're willing to drive to get them you can pick up a bargain when people think they're going to be left with something that's worth nothing and cost them £155.

Matthew_Gibson Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Apparently Matalica have pulled out. If slipknot are going does that mean they have a new album coming out. (normally do them sorta gigs to promote stuff) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted April 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 i can't see metallica pulling out for real - it's april the 1st - but if they did then that leaves space for the apparently self-confirmed radiohead to be put in their right place...

JD™ Posted April 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 i shall be watching that at home later lucky girl indeed, ridiculously great band with such a great amount of history and changes in direction random fun thing to do for radiohead fans: stick one track from the bends on, followed by one from in rainbows and carry on doing that for the whole albums worth of both - super album anyone?

*PHIL* Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 (edited) if you had a day ticket for say, saturday, do you reckon you could go out the arena and camp till the final night? if you went and stayed in a friends tent? obviously you could only go to see bands for the day of the ticket you bought.i had a weekend ticket last year and as far as i can remember they only check the wristbands on the way in, not the way out of the arena Edited April 1, 2008 by *PHIL* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went out to the touts and swapped them for a weekend pass not that that helps, but yea you can do it no problem. I have heard stories (and can't vouch for their real-ness) that people have found others passed out and managed to get the wristbands off them... harsh but if you're desperate...
