Wow, what a trek! Still sorry I missed you in T1 on Saturday :-(
@WaywardOne - yeah, T3 for the 600 meter dash! For T1, I got there at 3.30PM and I was 10th row, one person removed from the rail. Just as well since there was a huge security guy right there (they seem to be spaced every 2 meters) staring straight at the crowd, pretty intimidating (and was blocking the view too for people against the rail...). YMMV of course.
@dombr - scary story...you're very lucky that guy stuck around and gave you valid tickets!

It seems like the other pub we selected as meeting point last week was closed early mornings and also after the show. Pride Of Paddington was a popular place all through Friday-Sunday during the first Hyde Park show. That is why this recommendation is given.

Recommended meeting place Friday 12 - Sunday 14 for the Hyde Park show #2:
The Pride Of Paddington
1-3 Craven Rd, London W2
[theprideofpaddington.co.uk]
This pub is open from early morning, breakfast, also after the show. They say they close at midnight Saturday, but it was full of fans serving beers a quarter past midnight afther the 1st Hyde Park show, leaving plenty of time for everyone to get to this pub. Many have hotels in the Paddington area, and many have recommended this pub, highly recommended as the meeting point at any time for the 2nd Hyde Park show. It is simply across the street from Paddington station, on the corner of Praed Street and Craven Rd (the street that is extending into Praed St.

TooTough - thank you for the info! Got two tier 3 tickets 20 minutes ago.
Gotdablouse - I went to the main bst site, clicked on Rolling Stones then "Buy tickets". It says "sold out" next to all general admission (tier 1, 2, 3) but I ignored this and clicked on Tier 3 and was able to buy tickets (the code was automatically entered by the site).
I just checked again. No tier 1 for sale, but Tier 2 and 3 appear to still be available.
Hope everyone has a great show tomorrow!
