concert thoughts

NIN rocks! one of the best gigs I've been to in a while. I thought it was awesome when they started playing David Bowie songs, but then Gary Newman came out on stage and they jammed a bit, finishing off by playing Cars. awesome. (tho I don't think Justine and Harold knew the song, as they were not rocking out and singing along like Ben and I were....guess that song didn't get playing in France and the Netherlands...hmmm)

but oh my gosh, tube queue after the show. the O2 centre can probably hold about 50,000 people, and it was 95% full. and then all those people had to get home...we took one look at the queue 6 wide and about 300 metres long. and that was only to get into the structure housing the tube station. that was not through the lobby, down the escalator, through ticketing and onto the platform, and decided bus it was! the queue was long for that as well, but not as much. Harold and Justine managed to get on the first bus (and we saw Carla!) but Ben and I did not. however, while waiting for the next 188 we noticed that the queue for the tube had disappeared. went through and didn't even have to wait for another train. got home about 40 minutes before Harold and Justine.
