Got tickets to oasis gig in Feb.
Trying to swap seats for standing but if I don't...how easy is it to blag it into standing? Never been to a gig at the arena so would appreciate any advice.

unless someone can help on here i suggest swapping tickets with a tout on the night you will prob have to pay a little bit extra as the standing ones will be be like gold dust

Virtually impossible.

Unless you can sneak past the guards (which is unlikely) then you're stuck.

You'll never blag it mate. They'll be very strict with ticketing etc...
I got seating tickets when they first went on sale but my mate managed to get standing, so we sold the others :thumbsup:.

I dont think you got a chance as well for blagging.Every time i been to the arena and been front standing only.Not only do they look at the ticket at the door but also look at the ticket befor you step onto the floor.They gaurds are at bottom of all the iles of were you go to get to the floor, and also take your ticket of you too so can not be passed,well that what has happend to me for the past three concerts and you get them back after the gig if you want them but not ur orig one.

Hard pal! Went to see them in aroiund 2002/3 at the arena and the security is pretty tuff. You can't even smoke but so many people do!
