[cite]Posted By: Southendaddick[/cite]Cant really see O2 working as a gig venue, could be another Earls Court.
Having said that I will go when they start getting someone half decent there.
The thing is that the o2 arena is purposely built for music (the only one in the UK i think) so it should be excellent. The views from all areas of the place are fantastic (comapred to Wembley Arena) and there is a very intimate feel to the whole thing.
The extras such as cinema, ice rink, Fabric nightclub, restaurants etc make the whole area a great little setting.
tell me about the nightclub restaurants WSS? is there one which is like a restaurant downstairs and then open top upstairs or something? or did i hear that wrong.

Inside, there is like a "street" which has a lot up "upmarket" type restaurants such as Nandos, Pizza Express etc. This is to get rid of the usual £5 hot dogs that you can sometimes a gigs. Fabric have built a nightclub as well within the dome which will be open all year round (along with the 10 screen cinema).

Huge budget to pull events in with, better set up then Earls Court and Wembley Arena, and AEG have a lot of deals signed to manage tours, so they just put there artist in there venues (the O2, MEN arena etc etc)

Along with an O2-only text-driven prom code ticketing system (thus precluding anyone not on an O2 contract) this all sounds a bit too closed shop and exclusive. Shame, the O2 is a fantastic venue which should be as accessible as possible...or am i just totally out of touch?
How can i find out whats on and when all the pubs and bars and resteraunts open, and also if there is a cinema and nandos wont it put the stuff on the peniinsula or whatever its called out of business!

23 screens within a 1 mile of each other, as for Nando, it might mean the one at Filmworks becomes useable!
you wanna try and use that nandos at lunchtime on a weekday, its the best nandos around, knocks spots off of the one in bluewater and the one near my old work, peckham or somewhere!
How can i enter the competion innit (winky thing)):-)

I'm thinking of getting the missus some tickets for this, the only one's they have left are the £31.50 tickets. Are they still ok seats. I have never been to a concert in my life so would they still get a decent view?

The intimate small venue where any of the crowd are no more than 40 feet from the act will be special. Think Jools Holland is in that bit first.
I thought they went on sale tomorrow but O2 customers can order them in advance by getting hold of a promo code.

agreed. (unless free!)
the small thing might be appealing.
the thought of seeing someone in an indoor arena doesn't fill me with excitement at all.
wembley arena, earls court, and now probably the 02....not good.
got metallica at wembley stadium to look forward to tho!!

I think I'll be sticking to the Pilot.
Just got hold of a SECOND set of tickets.

The pre sale is one of the thing O2 are paying the £25m for the naming rights
