Yeah mine had same (well different code starting with GA0....but as long as the one you bought off twickets prefixes that with "Stalls" then fine)

Superb gig last night. Might have a few quibbles on the setlist, but still fantastic. Queueing/getting in last night way better then my last visit there 6 months ago, and the sound was pretty good (I heard some nightmare stories from Wet Leg the other week). Kind of restored my faith in Brixton Academy after a couple of fairly sh*t experiences there in the latter half of last year.

They juggle the setlist a little but Losing My Edge missing last night surprised me a bit (Setlist state it was on the printed setlist but not played). But as you say, superb nonetheless.

Went on Thursday and picked up a last minute effort for last night. Both incredible shows, missed Losing My Edge and Movements both nights! See if I can find a cheapie for the next set of dates.

How much did you get the last minute tickets for last night's gig? I'm keen to go (although have seen them plenty of times before) but with Glasto coming up and various other bits and bats over the next few months, I don't want to pay over the odds...

Went on Friday night and thought they were brilliant. Must be about 15 years or so since I was last at Brixton Academy so was good to go back and also take my son for the first time.

Arrived around 8:15pm and took about 20 mins to get in but we were moving most of the time. Managed to have a quick look at the merch and grab a beer before they came on. Atmosphere where we were standing, just to the right near the front, was great and the lights and sound were spot on. Only downside was how hot it was but that didn't detract from the whole experience. Think it was about the 6th time I've seen them and they never disappoint. Set time was just over 2 hours but never felt like it was dragging at any point.

Stayed at the Premier Inn near Brixton tube station so we decided to make a night of it and went to see Jazzy Jeff at the Hootenanny afterwards. He was predictably awesome and helped make it one of those rare, fantastic nights where everything just seemed to come together at the right time!

Headed to Lido for Charli XCX the next day and it was great as well but had a lot to live up to after the night before. Magdalena Bay and Gesaffelstein were the highlights but it was really crowded at times, the choice of beer was rubbish and it took absolutely ages to get out afterwards. Came scarily close to missing the last train home (I had to hold the doors open so my son and his GF, who'd come to join us, could jump on) but, all in all, was a top weekend!

Was on Ticketmaster verified resale for £24 including fees!

Definitely a few absentees on Sunday but didn't detract from another excellent night. Balcony was only half-full though - think they could have done six rather than eight shows. 

I was downstairs and while felt full it was relatively comfortable and easy to get to the bar etc. Was saying that on one hand 8 may be a show or 2 too many but on the other happy they are doing 8 given the heat in there!

 

I also liked the earlier Sun curfew - less rushing for last trains and not too late to bed😀

    • Another note, if I didn't mention the food in the arena for main stage is right at the back. Bands wise they do very well for but as a festival so far they pros are outweighed quite heavily currently for me.
    • On another note for RIP as an event, there is some good things but there are so many things people going to UK festivals would hate and how far behind they are.  Consistent network and water, beer and pretzel like food is brought around to buy in the crowds. Topping up on the wristband is good. The camping and food arrangement is not good, you really need cooking kit. Water points inside the arena are bonkers, water points in camping are a faff unless you are close enough in general camp. Merch stands are crazy. You MASSIVELY need to think about your lidl shop for camping and try and do it so you've one stop. It's definitely worth it getting to a camping shop here, picking up a rolley between your mates and stacking it for the walk back....lidl is cheap though, not hard getting in but Thursday queues getting in and into the camping is mad. You have to register first for a wristband as well leaving any bigger bags behind so pull to a side if only two and do it separately. I was joining a WhatsApp group for solo camp so went with the flow but I've learnt. Had it been me or just two my tent would have been down much quicker.  Big final note, I got a fresh and black 3 man from decathlon before coming and put in bigger suitcase with my airbed and sleeping bag...do this. Take a smaller option for your clothes. If you go to Munich first, book your train to Nuremberg as far in advance as you can....very important!....it hikes crazy. Probably bettee overall for baggage sizes to do BA both ways but you do then need to go back to Munich after too. Use the B&B hotel hbf the night before....its very nice, comfortable, cheap and within 10 minutes of the station which also serves as a transport stop 15 minutes from the registration.  Get up literally like 5am with everything back the night before, shower and go. Transport is free anyway for festival ticket holders during the duration.  Would I just choose to travel in each day and back to a hotel?, on the basis of sleep and getting accommodation cheap enough for 3 nights i might just do especially if I picked the ticket up early enough. It doesn't feel like a festival in a normal sense....unless you are in general yoi have to exit on the paths outside the camping to walk down and in which also applies for getting water so have a stock up. Toilets are in the camping.
