    Hi,

    For the girlfriends upcoming birthday I bought 2 tickets for this gig. I got standing tickets, and I'm just wondering what the standing area is like at the O2?
    Also I'm not a real big fan of her music, but I was just wondering if anybody has seen one of her gigs live and be able to tell me what shes like? I know she played at the Trinity Ball last year and wasn't supposed to be great

    Rumours going around that she cancelled the gig.







    Amanda Brunker will be performing instead

    Jessie J, unlike most of her Pop Star peers, can actually sing live. Some set o' pipes on her, I'd say the O2 show will be well worth seeing tbh.

    She better not cancel!! :( If the rumours are false about Jessie cancelling it'll be the second time that I will have seen her. In my own opinion Jessie is an amazing, talented artist. Like Savman has said she does sing live. Miming/Lip syncing isn't in Jessies dictionary. She gives her performance 100%. Trinity Ball was only bad coz the majority of people were drunk and ended up stumbling on people who fell to the floor either from drinking or by being pushed/shoved.

    Standing area (from Wikipedia): Retractable seating may be withdrawn to create space for 8,000 standing in front of the stage, with the remainder seated.

    Picture of standing area: I found a random picture of what it would be like -

    Standing is grand at the O2 - have a good view no matter where your are.

    Unless your girlfriend is a massive fan and wants to be up close I'd suggest hanging back a little bit, it can get pretty uncomfortable in the first 4/5 rows. You've more room to breathe and dance a bit further back, and its easier to grab a drink and get back to where you were.

    I've not seen Jessie J live, but I've watched live performances and she seems to have a good set of pipes on her, her songs are decent too.

    Is there an age restriction for the standing area, at the rescheduled gig in October?

    The only cancelation that did not come from her directly. After she pulled out of the '11 billing (one day before the gig, and was replaced by Amanda Brunker!!!) she promised to be back for Oxegen '12. While this was canceled by the promoter she pulled out of 2 Dublin gigs in 2013 herself again.
