(Besides being really close to the stage) The best thing about the pit is that the pit isn't very densly packed with people. Thus there's no pushing and you can even change your position during the show.

It wasn't densely packed in Stockholm, but I thought it was pretty packed in Amsterdam & Arnhem.

It wasn't densely packed on Keith's side in Arnhem. For shorter people, I would recommend moving towards the back of the pit: a) there is lots of room, so you can move around to get a good view; b) if you are too close to the catwalk, you may not be able to see over it to the other side of the stage.
(incidentally, I was amazed at how short the crowd was in the Stockholm pit. I am very tall (6'4"), but I was at least 6" taller than 90% of the people in the pit. Completely uninterrupted view. Arnhem... not so much - still had a great view though).

Ah ok, so that passage gets opened once both sections can be accessed I suppose ?

I must be missing something then ? Why would be people go queue up on the other side if they can access that side from the other one that's already open ?

What's strange is that there doesn't seem to be any separation between Gold and the Pit queue ? Mustn't make it easy to "filter" people in...

Incredibly amateurish indeed...did some get dragged out of the pit due to the lack of a wristband ? ;-)

I know its horrible for short people standing at shows, but being 6 feet 2'' has always been a problem for people behind me, i find myself throughout my life at concerts etc giving my space to shorter people behind me when i hear their negative comments about my height how i am spoiling their view. Its always said in a loud voice so they know i can hear them, but its usually said in a non aggressive way as not to cause offence .
Everybody has to be somewhere my wife will say to them, but more often than not i will let women or a short couple go in front of me, only to get groans from the next set of people behind me
Such is life

You end up in the back, then?
