They're (mostly) cockneys.
Where else?

The price of the ticket could be hyper steep though. Twickenham are charging £45+booking/p&p etc for standard Bon Jovi tickets and £75 for something called the Golden Shower... er, sorry, "Golden Circle" which I imagine is a restricted VIP type area at the front.

I find it hard to believe this will be the only UK show!! That sucks if it is, but it makes me more tempted to go to Wacken.

golden circles suck utter gangrenous balls. at some shows i've been to it took up as much as a fifth of the standing space, which must suck for short people stuck in the second section.

Also, that draw for fan club members to enter to get in early and get to the front barrier is fucking SHIT.

I know because Craig won it once, and it just meant he had to queue up several hours earlier, and when I got in there I was within a few metres of him, and could have made it to the same position if I'd tried! :lol:

yeah dont they just let those people in about 10 minutes early so they can wait on the barrier? still, better for everyone else than there being a golden circle!
