I dont quite understand sorry, do you have the option of going to a front standing section? or are we all yelled at to sit down till the encores? i would love to stand! i had that opportunity at Fleetwood Mac last year and had an awesome time! Can somebody clear this 1 up for me? and how early should i go for a decent standing spot?

What time approximately will the soundcheck be going on? Because if he's going to be playing the likes of Ram On and You Never Give Me Your Money, then I am planning on loitering.
I'll let you know as soon as I receive the e-mail with the time I have to show up for the sc.

I FINALLY received my soundcheck information. I have to be at Hampden at 3 pm, soundcheck starts at 3.30 pm. But it clearly says: timings are subject to change due to any last minute production arrangements.

I'd be up for a wee drink before the gig. Not sure of what pubs are good, I think DCBeatles from the forum suggested some, will need to go through the thread. Thanks Jolanda, for letting us know the time of the soundcheck. I'd like to go along to listen, then go to the pub for a while!
-
Oh cool, thanks. And I hope you have fun there, I would like to get a soundcheck ticket one of these days.

Those 'last minute production arrangements' again! You'll get there only to be told the show's been moved to the SECC

I'm all for standing at shows and i'm as likely as the next man to be down the front with the genuine fans but what's the point of having seats if you can just uproot yourself and p*ss off down the front for a boogie?! Kind of makes a mockery of the whole seating arrangement .... is it a seated or a standing concert?
-
so what , genuine fans buy standing tickets for gigs ? haha. so what people like me who is a genuine fan but just likes having a seat to sit down now and then is really a fake fan because of that ? lol

french let it be:
Who will walk from the center of Glasgow to Hampden Park ?
If the weather is nice I'll join ya! You're coming to Maggie May's on Sat? Then we can decide on what time to go etc. there.

A registered mail is waiting for me at my post office. Which mail could it be ?

My ticket arrived on Saturday...I never noticed it at first, I waited all afternoon wondering if it had come as I never saw it at the door,then I noticed my sister had put it on top of the television!! She thought I was taking a fit when I saw it!!! D Excited is an understatement! I live about 10 mins walk from Hampden park! If I open my windows I can hear the Hampden roar! In the Evening Times it says we are being treated to a Pipe band and Sharleen Spiterri (Ex singer of Texas and Stella's friend) I'd love to meet up with fans from here.... I feel a right berk going to this gig on my own but no one I know 'understands'. Lx
-
I also have to add that along Aikenhead Road ( a long road on the way to Hampden Park) has a Paul banner on every lampost!!! I am now wondering if I can scale lamposts!!! The one at Asda looks most accessible!

O.k. How about setting a time and place to meet at Hampden Sun. Wanna go there early myself, to hang around with all you guys (you're not the only one going by yourself ). I want to be there around 1 pm. Is that too early for you all? Meeting near the main entrance?

I better take it easy on the Saturday then!! angel Plus, I think the drinks gonna be expensive at Hampden or watered down anyway. I'll go with the flow, I dunno if 1pm is early or not? When can the peeps with no VIP be allowed in to the stadium? There's a pub near Hampden called The Beechwood,I bet it's gonna be chock full of fans....there's the International too but it's a bit of football pub, anyway, I'll do whatever. It's gonna be great! Apologies if I repeat myself a lot or repeat stuff already said, I've not had time to read all this thread yet...I will though P I'mon facebook 'Loopy Lorna' I'm on most beatle related pages. Profile pic is me holding a McCartney aftershow party flyer up at my face! heh!

Hey I'm planning to park on Aikenhead Road. Is that the norm? Can you advise? I want to be facing Rutherglen so that I don't have any hassle heading back home to Edinburgh.
