badaboom Posted July 19, 2012 Author Share Posted July 19, 2012 I know :-(( Is no one else on Mnation going? What a shame. Wondering if there is a general boycott now due to the aussie news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonski43 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 No, I think it's because most people went for Hyde Park when it was first announced as it was the only live date. It was a few weeks before Birmingham was announced in spite of rumours. I would have preferred B'ham as it's indoors, seated and easy to drive to but didn't want to risk missing a golden circle ticket. I wish I was going there but can't justify laying out more cash. I think you'll have a great time though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aeroco Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I'm going tonight, very happy to have believed the rumours and not gone to Hyde Park. 10 min drive from home or, shudder, pubic transport. That said, the NIA is so beneath her. I will however enjoy seeing her in a smaller than normal venue. If it is anything like Kylie at the Cardiff shithole venue, the V shaped catwalk will reach its apex at the rear emergency exits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking to the steward and he said there is an 11pm curfew so she will have to start at 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Msig Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Unless the NIA's 11 pm curfew isn't as strict as Hyde Park's, that means the plug will be pulled approximately during "Human Nature" or "Like a Virgin" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sire Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 It's just a fine if it goes past 11pm. Looks so much better in an arena! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessie Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I'm relieved that she is performing in a closed arena without having to deal with rain and windy. I wonder how she doesnt get sick performing in terrible conditions. She really is a super woman! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smirnoff_ice Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Just got back from the show. My second show. First one in a stadium in Istanbul, second one in an arena in Birmingham. Wow what a difference. Stadium stage and screens are so much more spectacular. She apologized and swore a lot for the technical problem with the motel room, which really disappointed me. The crowd in Birmingham was OLD! The atmosphere in Istanbul was electric, Birmingham was dead, 60 something year olds, which left the show around half the way. What a disappointment.
