Hyde Park (2013) - my first ever RS show
Vienna (14 on Fire tour) - Angie in the setlist and great vibe
Edinburgh (2018) - Paint it Black just killed me, in my opinion this is the best show of the No Filter tour
Amsterdam (2017)
Stockholm (2017)
Warsaw (2018) - the worst organisation imaginable but a history for my country (I'm from Poland)
Stuttgart (2018) - Lucky Dip, Pit B BUT RIDICULOUS PEOPLE PUSHING why? what for?

I was in Warsaw. I agree about the organisation. A total shambles, especially for entry to the floor sections. I queued from 3.30 and got a poorer spot (but still good) than hoped in Gold Standing. The Stewards were clueless. However, I thought it was the best audience of the tour and I'm a Scot, who was also at the Edinburgh show. I love Poland and the City of Warsaw, and it was great to be there, as it was in Chorzow 20 years ago.
And you're a Pole and preferred Edinburgh
My personal favourite show of the tour was Coventry though, by dint of it being my 1st time in the Pit . Very strong showing by Keith that night too.

I am Polish but it does not mean I love my country.
I saw all of these gigs from the front row
- Hyde Park - run for my life haha I was on Ronnie side and had the best time ever, my ultimate dream came true
- Vienna - probably the best organized show I have ever seen and we were WALKING to our spot
- Pit A in Edinburgh
- Pit in Amsterdam (Keith side, I've got the setlist ^^) - I met there so many amazing people..
- Pit in Stockholm (Ronnie side, I've got a pick from him)
- Pit A in Warsaw (so tight in the Pit!) but I greeted the Stones at the airport, Mick and Charlie signed my ticket from Edinburgh, I'm speechless
- Pit B Stuttgart - my mom and I couldn't breathe for a looong time, I thought we will end up in the nearest hospital

If that was Hyde Park 2, I'm pretty sure I met you while we were queueing up. Are you from Szczecin and were you at the show with your mother by any chance? I remember talking for a while with a Polish mother and daughter and after the chaotic entrance at noon, saw the daughter front row on the big screens and thought wow, she must be some runner!

Definitely you then, Czesc/Hi! I remember thinking that both you and your mum spoke very good English and also remember you liked Nick Cave a lot. I also remember you saying you were a front row specialist, and sure enough once myself, my friend and his then 14 yo son were in, we saw you up ahead, on the rail, easy to pick out with your purple head scarf .
Even though there was a very nasty crowd incident right beside me during Jake Bugg's set, I really enjoyed that day and meeting all the people I met, yourselves included. And we got that beautiful performance of Ruby Tuesday. There was a tremendous sense of occasion, with the bands future plans unknown and many, many superfans who'd travelled there from a long way present. I was at both Hyde Park shows and preferred the 2nd one.
Did you see yourself in any of 'Sweet Summer Sun'? We were in it at the end, as the crowd dispersed after the show.

Yes, I did! Street Fighting Man - on the screens, I am with my friends from the Netherlands Hyde Park was tough because of the weather conditions. The hottest day of the year and the run for 1,2 km... hell but worth it!
Nick Cave, oh my, this is the wrong thread but I have plenty of things to share about Nick and me ON stage...

Security were useless that day, (especially dealing with the nasty incident near me when Jake Bugg was on) but one thing they did do well was to give out water to the crowd and it was much needed. I believe it was about 29C. Show 1 was very hot too.
Also when we entered, some queues were slow and checked everyone and others were fast - lots of luck involved. We ended up 4 or 5 rows back but still in a good spot.

I remember I was the first person in my gate and obviously my gate was opened as the last one. Some people were already running but I was standing there like an idiot waiting. I was crying and the bodyguard let me run. That was hard.

O2 Arena 1st show. The only time I have seen them with no idea of what would be in the setlist, apart from the obvious warhorses. As it was an opening night, I was expecting it to be a bit sloppy but it wasn't.

Cholera jasne
So with being held back like that with others already running, you must be able to move like a greyhound! It must have been tough on your mum to keep up. The entry to GA for both shows was total chaos and very unfair. It was probably even worse for the 1st show than the 2nd. It's often the case for festival type shows.
The same friends I was with that day were at the Eric Clapton show at Hyde Park (same day as Stones in Warsaw 9 days ago). Same BST Festival, same organisers. They now have Diamond Pit, Golden Pit and GA, which is very far away. It's no longer possble to get to the front with GA unfortunately
IMHO,The shows on this tour have had reasonably well organised queues, and I've been to 11 out of 14. Warsaw was the worst. Easy enough to get in but poor directions once inside.

- Pit in Amsterdam (Keith side, I've got the setlist ^^) - I met there so many amazing people..
- Pit in Stockholm (Ronnie side, I've got a pick from him)
- Pit A in Warsaw (so tight in the Pit!) but I greeted the Stones at the airport, Mick and Charlie signed my ticket from Edinburgh, I'm speechless
- Pit B Stuttgart - my mom and I couldn't breathe for a looong time, I thought we will end up in the nearest hospital
If that was Hyde Park 2, I'm pretty sure I met you while we were queueing up. Are you from Szczecin and were you at the show with your mother by any chance? I remember talking for a while with a Polish mother and daughter and after the chaotic entrance at noon, saw the daughter front row on the big screens and thought wow, she must be some runner!
YES, I AM but currently, Warsaw is my home Wow, the world is so small
Definitely you then, Czesc/Hi! I remember thinking that both you and your mum spoke very good English and also remember you liked Nick Cave a lot. I also remember you saying you were a front row specialist, and sure enough once myself, my friend and his then 14 yo son were in, we saw you up ahead, on the rail, easy to pick out with your purple head scarf .
Even though there was a very nasty crowd incident right beside me during Jake Bugg's set, I really enjoyed that day and meeting all the people I met, yourselves included. And we got that beautiful performance of Ruby Tuesday. There was a tremendous sense of occasion, with the bands future plans unknown and many, many superfans who'd travelled there from a long way present. I was at both Hyde Park shows and preferred the 2nd one.
Did you see yourself in any of 'Sweet Summer Sun'? We were in it at the end, as the crowd dispersed after the show.
Yes, I did! Street Fighting Man - on the screens, I am with my friends from the Netherlands Hyde Park was tough because of the weather conditions. The hottest day of the year and the run for 1,2 km... hell but worth it!
Nick Cave, oh my, this is the wrong thread but I have plenty of things to share about Nick and me ON stage...
Security were useless that day, (especially dealing with the nasty incident near me when Jake Bugg was on) but one thing they did do well was to give out water to the crowd and it was much needed. I believe it was about 29C. Show 1 was very hot too.
Also when we entered, some queues were slow and checked everyone and others were fast - lots of luck involved. We ended up 4 or 5 rows back but still in a good spot.
I remember I was the first person in my gate and obviously my gate was opened as the last one. Some people were already running but I was standing there like an idiot waiting. I was crying and the bodyguard let me run. That was hard.
Cholera jasne
So with being held back like that with others already running, you must be able to move like a greyhound! It must have been tough on your mum to keep up. The entry to GA for both shows was total chaos and very unfair. It was probably even worse for the 1st show than the 2nd. It's often the case for festival type shows.
The same friends I was with that day were at the Eric Clapton show at Hyde Park (same day as Stones in Warsaw 9 days ago). Same BST Festival, same organisers. They now have Diamond Pit, Golden Pit and GA, which is very far away. It's no longer possble to get to the front with GA unfortunately
IMHO,The shows on this tour have had reasonably well organised queues, and I've been to 11 out of 14. Warsaw was the worst. Easy enough to get in but poor directions once inside.
My mother wasn't running, she was queueing with me but she wasn't running. She fainted 2 songs before Satisfaction and confeti blast.She was in the 2nd row right behind me. But the amount water given that day was overwhelming. God bless those stewards who were giving it to people.
