    That is one big ass gap between the stage and the barrier! Cameras (as in video, not photo) down the front perhaps?

    It is isn't it? The sore neck issue might not be that bad at the front then?

    I was thinking the same @rewak, but the stage looks really high.  If you were too close it might be hard to see above it.  

    Maybe thats the reason.  Either that or Alison was like 'keep those freaks away from me' :P

    Yeah, looking at the stage height (compared with the people on stage as scale guides) I think that distance is a requirement or the first couple of rows would have seen next to nothing! :D

    Actually, that would have made sense over the two nights - first night down in the crowd and second night up in the gods.

    Maybe there will be Frappers there who may want the opposite on Thursday and a ticket swap-shop could take place?

    guess i'll just get me a different perspective fix and go stage left one night and stage right the other if all else fails!

    There's also some folks going for the first time on the second night so crowd will be different again.

    Also, hearing it for a second time will change how the Thursday gig feels.

    Bound to be good either way.
