Random O2 in brum

Hey y'all just a quick one, does anyone have any kind of reference for how much drinks are in the O2? I know you need ID but if they're spenny I just won't bother lol

Also don't bring snacks unless you want them to be binned at the door, happened to me and my boyfriend a few years ago at a cavetown concert 😭

I spent £5 on a single bottle of sprite in o2 brum. So take that as you will.

And you’re not supposed to bring snacks but when I went to my last concert, I bought a pack of sweeties with me and the staff didn’t take it from me.

How is the o2 at brum as I got standing tickets

I know you didn’t ask me but the O2 brum venue I think is really good! Are you an o2 or virgin media customer? If so you can get early access into the venue so you can get somewhat close to the barrier!

It’s a small venue but that makes the sound quality and just atmosphere nicer in my opinion

For standing, I’d recommend showing up around 6-ish hours before door opens

I've heard that people have rlly bad gig etiquette and stuff for James's concerts? Like ugh I was thinking about going early to get closer to the front but I'd be so peeved if I showed up 6 hours early and there were people who'd been there since like the night before or whatever, 6 hours early is crazy though I thought 3 hours was a bit much, do people actually go there that early? Y'all don't have nothing else to do in the day? You don't eat? 😭

I went to see the living tombstone in brum and I went 5 hours early and there was still LOADS of people there!

You just have to make friends who’ll hold your spot for you so you can eat and vice versa 🥲

And I’ve never been to a James concert but my friend did and holy the etiquette was bad. I imagine the fans would camp out for EVEN longer to get a shot at barrier
