Saw them last Thursday. Absolutely amazing gig, hope you have a great time

ZittiEBuoni · 07/07/2024 19:38

DD will be there tomorrow, she has seen them many times and is a superfan. I've seen them with her a few times and they are always amazing live.

I went on Friday, first time I'd seen them and they were absolutely incredible! Travis were great too. Hope you have a great time!😁

It was. Wonderful wonderful. Oh and Travis were great, got everyone around me singing.

Have seen them before - absolutely fantastic - enjoy!

Went on Friday! Excellent as ever.

I saw them Thurs at the O2. They were INCREDIBLE. Totally in love with Brandon Flowers. He's the most beautiful, charismatic man alive.

Fantastic show!!

HJ40 · 07/07/2024 20:21

I'm going to see them. I can't bloody wait. I am so excited. I've seen them a couple of times before.

BUT Travis? WTF. I can't stand them. Just whingey whiney songs. Gutted.

LetSleepingcatssleep · 07/07/2024 20:27

So glad you've all enjoyed seeing them, I am SO excited, can't wait! 👍

Staying over too, so a nice treat to ourselves. 🙂

Yes! We went on Thursday and are now going back tomorrow! My son is a drummer and desperate to play 'For Reasons unknown' but we've tried before and it's so hard to be seen in the crowd

You might be pleasantly surprised with Travis. Haven't listened to them since Uni days but the new stuff they played was brilliant!

I saw them a few years ago and they were great - enjoy!

mitogoshi · 07/07/2024 22:53

Saw them on their last 2 tours to the uk, so good though sound was a bit disappointing on the stadium tour compared to inside

HJ40 · 08/07/2024 13:31

Does anyone who has been remember what time it all finished? I need to check trains etc.

Also, I've managed to book "VIP tickets" woo hoo. Which grandly seems to give me a tote bag and some goodies. But the O2 security says you can't take in totes. Has anyone else received one and been ok to take it in?

LetSleepingcatssleep · 08/07/2024 13:50

We've done VIP previously at the O2 & took the totes in without any bother.

I reckon it'll finish around 10:30, there's a restriction on timings & they have to finish by then because Madonna overran & got fined as I recall.

Have a great time @HJ40 ! 😁

Hey I'm really excited! We've made a sign - any chance anyone could re-tweet me on X? Look for #ICanDrum4U

Anyone seeing The Killers tomorrow?
LetSleepingcatssleep · 08/07/2024 14:15

Awww that's great - I'm not on X unfortunately but will look out for you, which part of the arena are your seats?

GracieGrowler · 08/07/2024 14:18

We are standing - bit scared we will get crushed but it's the only way to get close enough. We tried at Reading last year but no luck

LetSleepingcatssleep · 08/07/2024 14:39

I'll look out for you! 🥁

Friday finished about 10.50 - started at 9.05.

Just FYI they didn't play that on Friday - they are mixing up the setlist quite a lot.

HJ40 · 08/07/2024 15:47

Oh my Gawd. They had better play Mr Brightside or I'll be bereft.

HJ40 · 08/07/2024 15:52

Thanks for the info on timings. Might be tight for my train from Waterloo.

It is a few years since I've been to the o2 and I just remember an absolute hoard queueing for the tube. If it ends, say, 11pm, does anyone have an idea when I'd be at Waterloo?
