Yeah how did you manage that with the hotel - just take a gamble? I agree that getting a beer and going to the loo was fine but everything around the gig was just a total mess. As soon as the dates were confirmed I made the booking with a free cancellation, so even if I didnt get LG tickets it wouldnt have mattered. With Premier Inn I think you can cancel for free up to 3 days before the date of your booking. Maybe I just wasn't as on it as other gigs but it seemed impossible to get a hotel anywhere nearby. It certainly would've made the day a whole lot better with 2 hours less walking and 2 hours less spent on a train.

Home. Was epic last night. The crowd reaction to Stand By Me was incredible, probably the highlight. Hearing Roll It Over was pretty special also. Liam and the band were on fire and I thought the sound was great considering how far back I was. Also once you got in I thought it was all extremely well organised. I never queued for more than 5-10 mins for beer and never queued at all for a toilet. Kasabian were a lot better than I expected without Tom. I'm glad I sorted a room in the local Premier Inn before the tickets went on sale, it took forever to get out so I feel bad for anyone who was rushing for a train. Yeah how did you manage that with the hotel - just take a gamble? I agree that getting a beer and going to the loo was fine but everything around the gig was just a total mess.

I think I'm in the minority who feels a bit short changed this morning!!
Seems like it was a slightly shorter set too last night.

Hope the young lass thats gone missing is found safe. Not the sort of thing you want to hear about after a gig. Didn't hear about this but hopefully she is ok.

Without doubt, the most shambolically organised gig ever. What happened?? Train cancellations due to trespassers. Took 2.5hrs to get there from Kings cross. Then I'm sorry, but a 50min wall each way to n from the gig is a joke. And then about 2 trains running back from Stevenage. Shambles.

Reply from the train company asking about travel from Knebworth: 'I do hope this finds you well and thank you for getting in touch. Having checked your journey on the 4th of June I am unable to find any information to say the station will be closed. All indications are services will be running: ojp.nationalrail.co.uk/service/timesandfares/KBW/KGX/040622/2230/dep#outwardJump I have also checked for any Planned Engineering Works and there are none on the 4th of June: www.greatnorthernrail.com/travel-information/plan-your-journey/planned-engineering-work but please do check on the date of your journey. I do hope this helps and that you enjoy your journey and your concert. Kind regards Hazel Customer Relations Advisor' So perhaps Knebworth will be open after all and they're just assuming that by putting a message out people won't bother trying it.

Crows seem quite subdued for the most part in the videos I've seen.

At the Ethiad, I think the merch is pretty disappointing, the tour poster is the album cover with some writing on it! I think the WMWN tour poster was much better and more thought out. Enjoy the gig - let's hope for a mega setlist!

Looking at the above PDF it is saying to try avoid trains by going via car or coach. I cannot see people travelling into London at that time for Jubilee celebrations. I would imagine those going away will do so on the Thursday and most will stay local. The trains will be empty. I'm hoping a praying I can get on a train back to London post gig

I’m thinking of driving and sleeping in the car. Is this possible or will the car park be closing at a certain time? Hmmm my gut feeling is I'd be surprised if they kept the car park open all night.

I hope the EU tour dates will be announced as late as possible. I need financial recovery. Ha - same. I booked LG, RHCP and Coldplay back in October and I'm still recovering from it.

Basically, Knebworth station will be rammed so they’re trying to put people off. If you want to go from there, miss the last song and run! Shame really. However that sums up the UK. A no can do attitude Yeah unfortunately I have considered this...
