Emma and I went to see the Artic Monkeys at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday. This is a band I have wanted to see for years and they definitely didn’t disappoint.
When I bought the tickets all the pitch tickets had sold out so I went a bit crazy and bought VIP tickets which cost me just under £400 for the both of us. It was money well spent though, when we arrived we had a bit of faffing trying to find which gate to go through until we were ushered through some glass doors and up into the VIP area. It was so cool, we were welcomed up to the area and given a goodie bag and then you could get food, and there was no riot at the bar, we just casually got our drinks and Emma couldn’t believe the toilets as they had no queue for the ladies!
We went out to our seats and I was a bit concerned that the gig might be a bit of an anti climax as were seated with a lot of well dressed young affluent types and I thought it maybe it would be just people clicking their fingers enthusiastically but fortunately they got into it everyone was standing up dancing and singing along, What amazed me was the amount of girls screaming, they were going absolutely nuts. It all added to the atmosphere though, it was a really really good gig.
