Thanks so much for putting the video up, I go every year with my support staff who is now also a big fan of Pete,Jules and the whole team involved.😁 I loved every second of the show,all tunes were pure unadulterated classics and surprises thrown in there to like zombie nation (of course) and I appreciate so much the time,effort and skill put in by every single member of the team. I was determined to not let anything get me down-but yes,I ran (or rolled-I use an active manual wheelchair) into a gaggle of muppets who shouted “look at that gimp” laughing away to themselves.really? Im very self deprecative in humour but that one is so old (I even had the same treatment on the way home by another gaggle of drunken individuals when we were getting into a Uber access WAV cab but that’s another story). I was there in the disabled platform directly opposite the stage at the back. Pete as usual played an absolute blinder of a set before the show but I missed some of his DJ set as Victoria stations security treated me like a security risk,even though I go to it every year with my support staff or sister and until then I had never had any issues with the security. They roughly frisked me in my wheelchair while keeping my support worked out the way-beyond what would be acceptable by any able bodied goers,they kept me waiting for a long time telling me I can’t have my iPad Pro out in the arena when its on the access teams list every year as its my AAC device and I’m reliant on it to communicate-I’m non verbal autistic, mildly learning disabled as well as otherwise disabled. I then had a lot of trouble cueing up for the acessible toilet inside the men’s-some irritants were shouting away that I’d pushed in when I’d been waiting oposite the cue for over 45 minutes,my chair was getting in people’s way.,if it wasn’t for one man and a group of women who all stuck up for me I wouldn’t have got in, thanks if you all ever see this. Absolutely great night,always makes my year, roll on next November.

Sorry you had such an ordeal there, it was a treat from my wife and our first time! Loved it.

Hi, @@patrickdiddly1 Wow, what an amazing present! I loved the seats you both had! Perfect view! You need to go next year, he will likely have different vocalists involved, last year we had Rick Astley and Becky Hill among others.it’s just an incredible speechless experience. 🙂 If you are a fan of Pete as a DJ , keep a watch out for the 2024 line up at nearby Albert Hall, Pete played there as part of the ‘masquerade ball’ last march or may 2023, he also DJs at the warehouse project sometimes, but he’s not on their line up at all this year.it’s sad we lost sankeys years ago he was semi regular at Saturdays red-light night if I remember correctly. And thank you for the well wishes,It definitely hasn’t put me off😁 I think it’s January when tickets go on sale.
