City of Manchester Stadium and Take That

[ecrs2300]

Hello :)
Eeee I am so excited for Take That tickets to go on sale tomorrow morning :D. I am hoping to purchase tickets for the City of Manchester Stadium, however I am a tad confused about the seating plan! Basically, as it is the football ground the pitch is going to be unreserved standing which I'm not going for but then the 'Lower Tier' which is the same price as the unreserved standing, is this unreserved seating/standing? Also the Lower Tier is colour coded the same colour as the pitch. The Middle Tier which is more expensive is clearly reserved seating, but is it high up? I hate concerts where you're high up and cannot have a dance! Therefore, I am not interested in the Upper Tier. Here is a link to the diagram of the seating plan http://www.ticketmast...id=10001&minorcatid=1
Can any of you work out this?!
Many thanks x

O good Luck -im trying for the pitch at Hampden tomorrow.I much prefer the pitch as I think you have more freedom.I only ever went seated once and that was St. James Pk to see the Boss years ago (1985) and I stood up and was immediately told to sit down -I like to jump about a bit.
Heres hoping for tomorrow then :)

You're right Butch I cant wait- to get as many as possible on every credit card and sell them on ebay at at least 4 times the price (joke Poodi).
Im almost saturated at the thought -I have everyone on standby to waken me tomorrow.I think Robbie and Gary are good singists (are you Keith Lemon on the side by any chance?)
I have no chance whatsoever btw of getting a ticket going by past attempts :(

When me n mrs strong went to see Bon Jovi there, people could choose to stand or sit or wander around and do a bit of both.

Glad theyre not as strict CAS -I prefer just wandering about -dont like having a seat as youre always interupting someone -just like at the cinema.
Bon Jovi -any good? Only ask as we went to Aerosmith at Marley Pk Dublin and they were rank but the support Chris Cornell was brilliant.Sometimes the 'biggies' dont deliver.

Driscoll, they were good but not fantastic. Don't really like arena gigs as I prefer more intimate venues. Best arena gig I've been to was Brian Adams at Galpharm stadium in Huddersfield but the stage was on the long side and so you were closer to the stage.

Oi CAS -giving away my top secrets there lol (its just Dris on here:)).I love stadium gigs -love just mosying around and the bands/peeps i like are usually rock based and it suits. However have done the intimate stuff as well-Chris Isaaks was superb in the Usher hall-helped we were just within fondling distance of him and the very best was th Blue Nile again in the Usher Hall -their first public gig because of Paul Buchanans stage fright -it was mesmorising.ooooo i like my gigs :) (worst was Bowie at ingliston -prat)

Hey Dris.. I remember seeing that Scotland gig at Wembley in the 70's on the telly when I was a lad.
Their fans were allowed to wander around the stadium a bit and even took the pitch and goalposts home with them :-)

Boing Boing! x

Stu -that was only the second best gig -the best was in 1967 treble boing !!!! x
