Wembley last night

[Stu]

Massive thanks to the two very kind women who let me stand right at the front. Quite a gig. Christine was in the crowd, Stevie dedicated Landslide to her.

Just a brilliant end to the UK tour

I didnt think they had any luxury boxes there in Wembley. Do you suppose Christine was sitting in with the rest of the crowd?

I hope so too. I had a nightmare first with British Rail missed the first train, then the train i got on broke down and then when i got off to change trains it was pouring with rain got completely soaked, my handbag broke and fell on the floor. Then when I got to Wembley took my camera out of my bag and it had got broken in my bag - so no photos, videos from me

There was a man going around to people who were recording in the front telling them to stop - don't know who he was, and people did just stop recording.

Yes, I wasn't recording, but the guy told me my camera was too big. He showed me his badge and said he was with the band. His badge just said "all access." My camera is an all in one. It's not a professional camera. The lens is not removable and although it is thicker than most cameras depth wise, it is the same length and width as all the pocket cameras everyone was freely using. I wasn't using a flash and I wasn't videoing anything. Plus, I was off to the side. I don't know what kind of infringing use he thought I could possibly get out of the pictures I was taking. I was nonplussed.

That's a shame about your camera. I let mine get rained on and I was afraid it would malfunction. And it's just Murphy's Law that your handbag would break at just that moment.

I tried to take a taxi to the event because other Ledgies had reported construction that slowed down the train and I wanted to avoid that. But the cab driver acted like I was harassing him by offering him to pay 40 pounds or whatever else it would have cost to get me there. He said, "I have things to do tonight." Apparently, his job wasn't one of those things. I told him I didn't want to try to learn the train route at the last minute. He told me to brace up and try to conquer that mental challenge. "All you have to do is tell them you want a ticket on the Metropolitan line. There's only one stop before Wembley. You can't get lost."

He dropped me off at the Baker station (practically forced me out) and I got there in time, but was wearing sneakers and my feet were soaked. Achoo!

Michele, didn't security tell people at the first Wembley show that the Band welcomed people taking pictures? I thought that odd at that time when someone wrote that. Maybe they didn't like their online photos. Your story is an interesting one. That cab driver was strange. Too bad you couldn't find another one. How did you get home from the show? Have you met up with any Ledgies today?

That sounds like pure hell! Ugh... I recall doing my own running to get to the show on time because of the seriously f***ed up transportation situation. Not that it will help anyone now, but the London Overground system was a godsend! Just hop on it at Euston and 21 minutes later I was at Wembley Central.
