Said it over at Rockfic, and I'll say it over here: You guys look so fuckin' cool. :D The blue hair looks awesome.
Hnh. Your barriers look much sturdier than the US versions. Ours are either these big, plastic orange road blocks, a metal fence [read: bars, not thick mesh like in your picture] people try to squeeze through, or a long line of burly, beefy security guys. The last is actually the most effective. Those guys are like a brick wall. I had to pleasure of being thrown back by one once [at a New Year's event in NY], and it was like being pushed back by a boulder. xD
The Hammersmith barrier sucks because it's so damn high, which means little people (like me) have a hell of a job with it. Most of them are a little lower than that, which at least means that I can just about hoist the boobs over the top.
The one in the picture I wouldn't so much be able to wave them over the top as grate them on the mesh... *ouch*
Ouch. I can see now why it was so difficult to pull you out when the idiots at the back started pushing.
[hug]
I'm short, too, so most barriers look big to me. I spend every concert I go to on tip toes, twisting my neck to see. :/ I'm lucky, I guess, that Rick is a drummer. Since he's on a drum riser, I can actually see him. Well, the drums anyway. I had to all but hop in place to see Phil and Co.
