NB: Would LOVE an acoustic of Let Your Good Heart Lead You Home at the shows, that would be something special. Personally, a full band powerfully beautiful and soaring version would be just as special if not more so. When it soars, it is euphoric on a soul reaching scale. Tom is not wrong when he says its one of the best songs they have written but its the bits in between the singing and the crescendo ending that cements its epicness. Full band or not at all for me

If anyone has a link I'd be very grateful. I was at every Belgian show since 2013 so not entirely sure on what basis they decided who gets access...

Having a real dilemma at the moment.
Booking tickets tomorrow for Brum but undecided on standing or one of the tiers. I've always been front/2nd row seeing editors and have loved it, but it's always been in small venues. I've never been to a gig in an arena before but I'm worried about getting a standing ticket but not managing to get to the front and then being trapped in the middle and not being able to see anything. A tier seat would solve this but then I'm worried about being too far away to enjoy it how I'm used to enjoying it?! There are 4 of us going, 2 of them newbies. Any advice?!

you will have fun regardless, bigger venue, bigger pit and higher stage, being back a bit will at least let you see eveything in terms of band staging and lights

Will lower or higher tier give the best view?

How tall are you? Hard to predict for me because I’m small af but I’d imagine the higher stage in arenas means most people can see well from 3rd or 4th row too

It's a real dilemma and I'm stressing out about it Haha. I'd just be worried about being pushed around a lot from all directions, especially during papillon etc. I'm swaying more towards a tier just because itll be a good view of everything going on, but I still wanna be close enough to see everything well.

I went for a seated ticket for an Editors show once last year and I could just see the atmosphere was 50 times better at the front, sitting was weird and standing was weird too because everyone around us was sitting for most of the the gig. #WEIRD but then it's true you can see the light show better if you're seated a bit further away. And also extra comfort haha

The pessimist in me thinks there might be a venue downside to the o2 institute come Jan / Feb any way.
