May have someone looking for one, will check when I’m in work.
Also going tonight, trying to work out the best time to get there, the warm up acts aren’t really my thing, so will depend on when I get finished with work!

What are people doing about parking on Friday? Any recommendations to anywhere local?

Managed to offload it on Twickets last night. Not overly keen on the support acts either but I would quite like to be close to the front so I’ll be aiming to get there before 17:00

No worries. Also want to be near the front, so will have to put up with the warm ups!

Be interesting how his voice holds up.

There are various reports saying he's obviously got vocal problems , he's not screaming as much , the rest of the band are joining in for the chorus's etc.

So who's going this weekend?

I'm at the Saturday show! Can't wait, been trying to get tickets for the last few gigs in the UK.

I have 2 spares at face value if anyone's interested.

I’ve also heard this. That, combined with the smoking/drinking hasn’t helped his voice over the last few years.

We've got tickets for Friday. Trouble is we've got to finish work then travel 100 miles on public transport to get to London. Does anyone know what time the FF's actually come on stage? Not bothered about missing the support bands, but want to make sure we're there in time for the main act.

The timings for tonight are -

The Cribs - 17:30
Wolf Alice - 18:30
Foo Fighters - 20:00

I imagine the timings for the other shows will be similar.

Let us know what it's like tonight. I'm seeing them on Friday. Seen them many many times now and never ever been disappointed so let's hope I don't start now!

Wow, poor show for the support acts. Think we might be a bit late then.

I guess he’s read the rumours as he addressed them whilst screaming his lungs out.

Ok, can confirm his voice was fine. The show was absolutely awesome! Back to back tune, after tune!

The two support acts were crap, but had to watch to ensure you got a spot so you can see.

I wasn't able to make it yesterday - absolutely gutted! I am going to see if I can get down to London on Saturday. Anyone else that has been to London stadium before have any advice on seating? I may be able to get a seat on the reserved lower tier or middle tier . Any ideas which is best to go for? Cheers

Just a fking brilliant night, the best live show I’ve ever been too! We got in early enough to be allowed inside the “golden circle”! Wolf Alice were completely uninterested in being there, I enjoyed Frank Carter and The Rattlesnakes though.
