Simple shorts and T for comfort... Not messing around with parka, jeans or bucket hats etc... It's going to be VERY hot.  

Bucket hat might actually be a good idea.

big floppy ones are amazing for the more generously domed among us, as they provide some more shade and are also blissfully cooling when soaked in water 

[Alvoram]

To be fair @steviewevie and @balti-pie you're probably both right... Will grab an XXL one.

Is the white bit the front standing?  What’s the big gap for?  Is that also standing or some sort of safety / security gap??

[Tomdevlin]

sorry if this kind of post isn't allowed here but I'm looking for 3-4 tickets to any of the Manchester dates if anyone knows of any going... desperate times...

Thats where the dancers and fireworks are gonna go

£6.50 a pint apparently. Really good if true. Paid £7.50 at Knebworth 3 years ago and Cardiff last weekend was £8+

Does anybody know how many people are allocated for that front standing section? It looks tiny, I think it was about 2,000 in Cardiff, but surely bigger for Heaton Park?

Strange place to put the sound tent, need to be tall to see over that.

Some rumour is VIP at front. Then front standing. Then GA.

 Looks about right. Then the narrow gap between FS and GA.

I'm grateful to have a ticket, but a bit gutted to be stuck in GA if I'm honest!

Ditto. You there tomorrow? We may just take it chilled and hang back whole time. No point pushing forward in heat when the 'front' is that far back anyway.

Yeah. I feel the same. I'm a short arse and was hoping to get at least a half decent position, but doesn't look like that's going to happen now.

Edit: Never mind it is Oasis's fault.

You knew you were short when you bought tickets though, it's hardly Oasis's fault? You should have bought front standing if you wanted to secure a decent position. 

It was a random raffle to get front standing. Pure luck.

They literally didn't offer front standing for sale. They randomly assigned it at a later date.

Well that's bloody ridiculous.... apologies. 

[eatingglitter]

We’ve been fortunate enough to get the ballot for the front standing. Really happy and really excited about it. However if that’s VIP it’s not really front standing is it 😂 

 

I’m just glad to be going to be fair mind

[mufcok]

I can't work out what's going on with it. Guess we'll hear from those going tomorrow.

 

VIP won't be right at the front. Be out of the way of the riff raff.

 

My prediction is that those first two sections are both 'front standing' with those there first getting wristbands for the very front bit

That seems the most likely - but bloody hell by not telling people that, on top of the previous clusterf**k, it almost seems like they're actively trying to detract from peoples experience?

 

Does also seem curious that the very front section seems to have some form of floor put down throughout, so goes beyond simply protecting the land from the cranes etc driving around and would be more in keeping with VIP than simply people who got there early.
