Manchester Block 115

[splatter-house]

Was anyone else here in this block? I was talking to a bunch of people but never asked if they were on this board.

[JustXCallum]

nope. standing

Meeee!!! :D

I think. Was it just to the right of the stage if you were facing it from the standing bit? Me and a friend were seats X19 and 20 (back row but still hella close considering, I thought). I was wearing a brown coat and a Bert and Ernie T-shirt.

Were you the guy dancing like a maniac (we were extremely impressed) who we talked to about whether or not the guys hiding behind the curtains in blue jumpsuits were the Beasties?

[splatter-house]

Not me i'm afraid, was further down....must have missed those guys dancing like maniacs, although we had people right in front of us doing the same thing.

I was in block 15 row V, i was the one dancing like a maniac!!

Come to think of it most of Block 115 were dancing like crazy. Congrats to the people near me for being mostly bloody cool - it was my first real live experience and being with a bunch of total loons helps you to come out yourself a bit. (y)

I was in block 102 the couple next to me got dragged away for having a camera because it had an added zoom lense on it. But I was dancing away even though most of the others around me were not. Excellent gig well worth the wait as it was the first time I had seen them. (y)

I was in 102 too (row H)...and i was dancin'! There were quite a few round me that weren't though. :rolleyes:

Didn't see the thing with the zoom lens camera but the security were like hawks - they kept asking to see tickets and hawling anyone out who had swapped to a better seat.

:eek:
That's evil!! Even if the seats were empty? I'm starting to think the yellow jackets and smiles were all some kind of facade! :(

[camel_ben]

yer the sercurtiy dudes were pretty tight, but me and my friends like most people managed to jump the barrier and get into standing ;) ....ended up been pretty close to the front aswell

btw i was wearing a boston celtics black n white mesh cap and a short sleave black shirt incase anyone happend to see me (y)

:D Indeed. I (very naughtily :rolleyes: ) had my feet up on the seat in front of me and they were knocked off by a blonde yellow blazer wearing woman - who smiled very sweetly as she did so.

I was in Block 102 and I saw security talking to a woman in front of us about a camera... I had no idea it was to do with a zoom?!

Our block was pretty weak :( No one got up when Kweli was on stage and it took a while for anyone to get up when the Beasties came on.. even then they just stood there :rolleyes:

I almost fell into the people in front of me when 'Shake Your Rump' started lol - I got a bit carried away a few times ;)

The blonde yellow coat girl pointed to my feet up on the seats too :)

I was in Row N wearing a red coat, baggy jeans and gray Timbs.

[Sull]

I was in 115 row W. Damn fine seats. I was envious of the peeps at the front of the standing but I did that in Brixton in 98 so I can't be too p!ssed off.

The show was excellent tho. Caught most of Talib's set but I must admit it didnt sound like he does on record. Still good though !

[robo-giraffe]

Gasp! I had my feet on the seat for a wee while during Talib's bit (took me a while to get into - I mean, I am usually very inhibited) but wasn't told to leave. The people at the end of the row were busy annoying the security guy I think. :)

Was gonna jump the barrier but liked the high up yet close view, and also was afraid of either not making the jump or being ejected. Didn't know everyone else was doing it! :(

And Sull you must've been right in front of me! I almost fell forwards onto the people in row W at the start of Body Movin' and Sabotage because I went mental, jumped around, and forgot I was high up! :D :o
