Cheers both of you. Really looking forward to it. To be honest i am a little worried im going to be the only white person there. Hope im not sticking out like a sore thumb really.
Are you near the front?
No im up in the upper circle. But i still dont want to be the only white person there. It will be a bit uncomfortable i reckon.
Don't worry, it was about 70% white in there, according to my mate
You won't be. Rock transends the gap with his humour. I love him, but couldn't afford tickets at the time.
Yeah money wasnt so much of an issue because the girlfriend bought them for my for my birthday. Well i hope he is on form tonight and the tickets were worth the money.
i love the man, have almost everything he has done, but he was shit on moyles this morning!!
That could have been Moyles though. His shitness tends to rub off. Not a big Moyles fan as you can tell.
I went to see him at the Apollo in Manc on Tuesday, he was hillarious, haven't laughed so much in years, tears rolling down my face all night, you will have a ball.
Support was funny too.

It would be funny if you were the only white person there 
He would definitely have a go at you

Nah, the split was mostly white at the Manc gig, about 70/30 as stated above.
Not that it should even be an issue.
My brother and two mates went, said he was still very funny but not as good as he used to be.
i went on wednesday,
he was trully hilarious. He worked well with the mixed ethnicty of the crowd.
Mario Joyner (opening act) was superb aswell, ripped into a couple of late comers.
you'll have a blast.
He is funny, quite racist but funny, if say Michael Richards said some of the things he did....
no it was rock, he just couldnt be fecked with it, i like moyles, and it was not down to him...
Fair enough but i would say that he cant really ply his trade on an afternoon radio show. His comedy is quite mature to say the least so you know he needs to be doing interviews when he can say whatever he wants.
Last night he was absolutely hilarious. I was laughing the whole night long and he worked well with the mix in people (someone else said that and i totally agree). There was about 40% black people, 30% white and 30% Asian. Was a good mix of people. His support was fantastic as well. His joke about mutes was one of the funniest of the night. Good interactions with the crowd and most importantly just a fecking funny night.
he was good on Jonathan Ross last night
i agree, he was great on rossy
didnt realise he was touring the uk until the other day when i heard him on radio 1, i would have tried to go
