I was there it was out of this world we were at the front in front of caleb! The crowd were quite aggressive i nearly had a panic attack at one point cause some guy punched me in the back as he wanted to get infront of me and i was having none of it so he carried on by pouring a pint of lager all down my back! NICE but it was great to hear them sing some oldies and apart from a couple of losers i had a gr8 night! What a fucking asshole!! God I hate people in pits who ruin the show for everyone else. Sorry that happened to you!

i wanted the SOF fans to leave after that was played because i knew they wouldn't appreciate trani and other oldies!! i was infront of jared and when trani was played - apart from me and hubby and two guys 3/4 rows behind us - nobody knew it!! i shook hands with jessie just before she chatted to newton faulkner ... she is gorgeous! i think the camera crew was just filming for the overhead screens ... but i could be wrong anyway it was my 10th show - it might be my last ... so glad it was one of the best i have been to! ...... one thing really annoyed me though - 2 girls at the front who thought they could stand there without being knocked around a bit!! WTF! if you are in the pit it gets rough ... deal with it! i was infront of jared too and there were two girls who looked at me like i was evil when i started dancing and bumping into them by accident . SMALL WORLD

yeah i know what you mean it does get rough and i proper love it when it does i just dont appriciate people hitting me over the head and when there arms get tired resting them on my shoulders or my head its uncomfortable and a bit rude but i was proper going for it and i loved every second! ye there was someone behind me who thought my head was an armpit rest when they were taking pictures. ticola I think i was stood near you and your sister, i was the one with the crazy mum who nicked my camera.

I was there too!!!!! Highlights for me were Cold Desert then Straight into Trani which I was so happy about because I love that song live!!!! and it was so nice to hear Cold Desert live too! Other Highlights were My Party, Four Kicks and the Bucket!!! Loved it!! I saw KOL last December in manchester too! I think I had more fun this time because I was a lot closer.. even though I was seated! Hey velvet10, I think I might have been sat near you, because I thought I saw Newton Faulkner a few rows down and to the left of me!!! Was you sat (if you're looking at the stage from the back) to the right? I was right next to the stage. Fucking gutted that I only saw the last two songs by M83 though, really like them too. good gigggggg!!!! merry christmas! EDIT: I think I'm still on a high as you can tell from all the exclamation marks haha i think you might have been in the next block over towards the stage from me? cos he was about 10 (?) rows down to me and 4/5 seats over to the right! did you see him talking to jessie?? it's really weird when you are at a KoL gig cos you know there's got to be HA'ers all around but you don't know who is and who isn't (obviously!) but you can't go round asking!!! avidblue - do you have long blonde hair?? i saw someone really bouncing round in that block - could it have been you ?? thanks savanna and montana for commiserations!! karma! i noticed matt is really gracious with the crowd too - he makes sure he faces all round the arena clapping the crowd and doing a little thank you motion with a bow - you really feel like they are looking at you! even though you're there with thousands of others (17k, omg!?) you feel like it's just you and them *sigh* I didnt know who jessie was, so I did some searching and found out!! I did see her!! infact she sat 2 rows infront of me with 2 of the most gorgeous looking girls I've ever seen in real life haha.. Who I've just found out are two of their girlfriends!! they were HOTTT!!! and they vanished from their seats about half way through the gig.. I assume to go backstage
