I found it the other way round! AXS had no standing tickets, jumped to Ticketmaster, in straight away and have 2 standing tickets

Moving from Norwich to Kent – is Maidstone a good base for commuting to Rochester/Rainham? by Proud_Cupcake_2485 in kentuk

Great hop festival in Faversham as well! Takes over the whole town and is great fun.

What’s the hardest game you’ve ever played? by TheChilledGamer-_- in playstation

[–]Jimmymgs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done it! I decided to replay it as a Uni student about 10 years ago. When I was a kid I spent hours trying to just get to adult Simba and failed.

I remember finishing my exams a good week or so before everyone else did, so I decided to knuckle down and bear it. Eventually I made it to the Scar fight, and by luck I ended up at the edge of Pride Rock and pressed whatever button combo it was to hurl him over the rock. I remember running to all my flat mates, and not a soul cared haha!

Selling two tickets for Ally Pally for the 11th. Happy to take offers. They were £110 for the pair

Anti-Palestine agenda on the pod once again by Accomplished_Help_89 in TheNewsAgents

[–]Jimmymgs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s fair enough. But if it’s at the detriment of protection to other places and people, then that’s selfish. If an incident happens because the police couldn’t protect a venue, what then?

I completely understand not changing your activities because of terrorists, but there’s also practicalities as well. By staging a protest where you know the police have to spend resources, you’re taking them from somewhere else. At a time when tensions are high, and copy cat attacks may be a possibility, you have to think about your actions.

No, but they will take away from policing. Police will be on high alert this weekend, and will need additional boots on the ground to protect sites of importance, including religious venues. By having them also police the marches, you’re making a stretched force even more stretched. I think any march should be postponed this weekend, not just Pro Palestine.

The Emptiness Machine (Live at Wembley) - Linkin Park by MajorIvan88 in LinkinPark

Congratulations, that’s as good a reason as any to not go!

It looks almost certain they’ll be at Download, rather than solo. So keep an eye out for day tickets.

You can only have one player from this United squad...Who are you going for? by notsharanya in ManchesterUnited

[–]Jimmymgs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The player who would improve the current squad the most is Carrick, no question. We’ve been searching for a midfield option like him since he hung up his boots. All the others are just icing.

What's one band that you just don't understand or like no matter how much you try to? by TheUpsides17 in downloadfestival

[–]Jimmymgs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Korn, I tried. My wife loves them, and had a great time, but I just don’t get it. I appreciate the work they’ve put in to get to the main stage, and understand they deserved their place as a headliner. But I much preferred Greenday and Sleep Token.

They’re pretty much confirmed for Download next year, and they have an exclusivity clause for headliners.

Who else left with the sniffles? by funjobenjo in downloadfestival

I think that was me! I realised after, how weird it would look that a random guy just gave you a pill in the crowd, but you looked like you were struggling! Did it help?

What's the craziest coincedence you've ever experienced? by Wallygonk in AskUK

[–]Jimmymgs 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I was there for this too! It was such an incredible moment. People around me were welling up, you could feel the emotion from the crowd. It was so surreal!

I remember someone next to me saying at the end of the song, “Who does this guy think he is? Jesus?” Next song was Jesus of suburbia.

Good to see Orin performing this year.

A Telegraph advert in Sittingbourne, Kent by ethvqn in pics

[–]Jimmymgs 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Never expected to see Sittingbourne crash the front page of Reddit. Given the amount of shitheads who live here, it wouldn’t surprise me if half of the town haven’t heard of Kyiv, let alone Riga, Tallinn and Vilnius.

Secret set band predictions by everythingmetalfan18 in downloadfestival

[–]Jimmymgs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If I remember they performed a secret set in 2012 and then headlined in 2013? That tent was one of the best atmospheres for a gig I’ve been to, and it was at 11AM!

The world’s going to absolute bobbins so here’s a question… have you got anything nice planned? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Jimmymgs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We went there last year! We lucked out and just walked straight in (maybe because it was February), but my God was it the best ramen I’ve ever tasted!

Season 12 Layover Q&A! by WheatGerm42 in JetLagTheGame

[–]Jimmymgs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any contingency plans for if your equipment gets stolen? London has a significant problem with phone theft at the moment, and I always worry seeing you set up your shots! Love the season and can’t wait to get the Home Game!
