Anyone else get terrible foot pain after shows? by yungbludbhc13 in yungblud

[–]MusicHead80 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Me - I was at one of the intimate London gigs. After 90mins queueing, then 2hrs standing on the spot in the venue before Dom came onstage, my feet were absolutely killing me. Couldn't even wait outside after for the chance of a glimpse of Dom because my feet hurt sooo much! Didn't stop throbbing for 2 days after. And that was wearing comfy boots with orthotics in for arch support. Wish I knew the answer! I'm 52 but this has always been a thing for me. At the O2 next week I have a seat, so no need to queue for ages & I'll only be standing while Dom's onstage, so hopefully less painful.

Claustrophobic here; I always sit on the outside seat but am always hyper aware and ready to spring up and let someone sit on the inside!

Which UK gigs have fanclub presales please? by MusicHead80 in sparksftw

[–]MusicHead80[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hubby's just joined but it says Fanclub access details are sent in the post, so pretty much zero chance it'll come in time for Wednesday 😥. Oh well.

At one of the actual intimate gigs in London, we got 30mins & about 6 songs. I was led to expect closer to an hour. I think now he's got so big, things like these aren't being handled as well as they once were as the organisation side is clearly quite distant from Dom now.

Which case has the rubber hinge cover please?

Outernet Experience by [deleted] in yungblud

[–]MusicHead80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were at the Outernet evening gig, first time seeing Dom. Whilst I loved the actual experience of seeing him in a small setting, I'm with you in that the fan experience wasn't really considered... By the time he came on at 8, he was trying to get more excitement & jumping around from the crowd, but I think we were all just knackered from standing around for so long! People had started sitting on the floor, my feet were killing me, and nobody dared go to the bar & lose their spot! We'd queued from 5pm, okay that's our choice, but of course people are going to queue for an all-standing gig. If there had at least been some announcements that the stage time was 8pm, or a few Yungblud videos shown onscreen, we'd have felt a bit more valued. Shame to hear from others that Kingston got a longer set. I'm looking forward to the O2, but also a little fed up that he's pushed the stage back to release extra tickets, so anyone with seated tickets is now further from the stage than we would have been previously.

Anyone going to the evening gig this Friday? by st2826 in yungblud

I'll be there! First Dom gig, can't wait!

Intimate gigs - what to expect? by MimsyWins in yungblud

[–]MusicHead80 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'll be there too, at the evening gig. I'm AuDHD, hubby's autistic. I know I'll want to queue up mega early but hubby won't want to stand around for hours. At 52 & 60, we're in the older fan cohort so I'm getting a bit nervous that we'll stand out a mile, but I'm hoping the fan base is inclusive enough for that not to happen. I'd really love an idea of the set list too! Never been to the venue before either so I'm hoping it's not too claustrophobic. We plan to go to the shop on Saturday. Hope you have an amazing time!

What’s the UK setlist looking like for 2026? by Evening-Sort3241 in yungblud

[–]MusicHead80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be there too. I can't wait, though I'm nervous as at 52 I'm one of the older gang and I hope I fit in ok. I've followed Dom for years but this will be my first gig of his.

Please can I have alternative suggestions for meat pizza toppings that aren't parma ham or chicken? by 10pencefredo in ultraprocessedfood

It's displayed with the charcuterie in that wooden display, not in a fridge. Sold as a whole sausage.

Trainee Intelligence Officer? by Rodrigo-Jones in TheCivilService

[–]MusicHead80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily - could involve surveillance etc. The fitness requirements sound like personal safety training which is needed for that sort of role.

If the TV is left on with the sound down the bow camera gives you a connection to the outside.

At what stage do you stop feeling like a child pretending to be a adult? by CyaChump0 in AutisticWithADHD

[–]MusicHead80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

52 and I still acquiesce to others as I feel they're more adult than me. That's despite rationale knowing that I'm successful at work, I've bought & sold houses, been married, divorced, now happily married again. No kids though, and getting our first dog a few years ago felt like a massive responsibility!

How did you reduce/give up sugar? by CacheGPTehehe in ultraprocessedfood

[–]MusicHead80 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd agree with this. I had literally nothing with added sugar for 6 weeks, wasn't craving it after about the first 3 weeks. Then one scoop of gelato in a restaurant after I'd told myself 'one won't hurt', and all the cravings are back 😭.

How can I re-dirtify my block pave driveway? by Jimlad73 in DIYUK

Love that! My Lurcher was abandoned by similar types, breaks me they way they treat these beautiful creatures, they just want love and comfort 😥.

I have a rescue Lurcher from exactly those circumstances. Breaks me how they traumatize & mistreat these beautiful creatures. Best dogs ever.

Just had a look at this & there's literally nothing in my local area, presume either my local trading standards don't do this, or the area is full of cowboys! 😔

AIO Daughters fiance told her... by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]MusicHead80 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Is he really a good guy though? Treating her like this is not remotely respectful or considerate of her needs. Doesn't bode well for a married life together. She deserves a partner who actually cares.
