Hi Everyone!

I am headed to the Orlando show on Monday in Pit B(!) with the early access package, and I was wondering if anyone has photos of the Pit from the last few shows that they could share??

Specifically... I'm hoping to clearly see the layout of the pit so I can judge where is the best spot to stand! I know the very front corner gets super crowded....how about the back corner (closest to the catwalk)? Is there extra space there or does it also get super crowded?

Thanks!

No No ... get to middle of rail Keith side ..,..

You'll see and hear even clang and rattle from thee band

See BV's advice here: The pit is NOT crowded. And certainly not "super crowded."

Since you paid for the privilege, you might as well set up camp as close and comfortably as possible to the very front corner or along the catwalk before the riff-raff come in. This is not a Buenos Aires situation. You should survive.

You want to be about three people back and as close to the catwalk as possible. That's the sweet spot.

You have to get there early and not have to give up your spot for the restroom unless someone is holding your place like a close friend (not a stranger).

Be ready for people to come late and try to push their way to the front. Keep your feet planted firmly on the ground and your elbows out.

The damn camera on Ronnies side is annoying.

When you get to the pit you have to claim your spot and hold onto it.

The pit goes 3/4 down the middle ramp. There is a great pic somewhere in NY 1 show thread somewhere between page 3 and 5.

It has been super-crowded on some shows this tour. I literally could barely move in Vegas.

From the photos Irix posted above, I can’t see or say the pit is not crowded. Especially the Vegas one, which looks literally super-crowded to my eyes.

Reminds me of my Diamond Circle experience at Hyde Park #2 in 2022.

In Vegas I did not have early entry but still ended up in the front corner pocket right behind Gail and Lauren. During the opening band's set, it seemed very tight and crowded and there was hardly any room to move, but shortly after the Stones came on things relaxed and by the middle of their set we all were able to stretch a bit and groove without bumping into each other. People relax after the first few songs and everyone loosens up.

Thanks Irix and everyone else! I’ll see you all at the show!

GAFF, my experience is about the opposite of yours, in the other pit, and about 2/3 of the way down the catwalk, first row at the rail there, early entry.

Uncrowded, relatively, until the Stones came on, and then people started jamming in, allowing almost no room. One women in particular tried to put her arm in at the rail and squashed her whole self into me, uncomfortably. As said above, keep your footing and, I didn't do this much, your elbows out.
