Well, they were both fucking amazing so woo!

Probably preferred the UEA gig though as I was pushed to the front and was staring right at James.

I've noticed a lot of people saying that the second brixton gig was particularly good - and that's the only manics gig I've been to!

And according to one girl I spoke to very briefly at it, I looked like a manics veteran!

I went to both and thought the second was better too. Despite the fact I went all on my lonesome!

I guess I just exude a sort of die hard fan-ness. Personally I think I'm a bit young to look like a veteran but I took it as a compliment at the time.

Well there are plenty of 'veteran' fans who don't do the whole queuing/dressing up thing, so I don't think you can tell tbh

*I would like to point out that the wording of my first post looked a bit bitchy, in case you were wondering I meant how can "one" look a veteran etc, not you in particular

I guess maybe you can tell when it's peoples first manics gigs - they tend to have quite tacky clothing, and really stereotypical stuff. And have an odd idea of what "glam" actually is (it means GLAMOUR people, not covering yourself in everything vaguely glittery and animal print and slogans you can find, all together.)
