Fans accuse bouncers of being heavy-handed at Pete Doherty gig

I was at this gig myself and have also been to many other gigs at the Guildhall. Crowd surfing has never been allowed and there is no reason why this gig should have been any different. However, I have crowd surfed at this venue before knowing I'd be thrown out and I do agree the bouncers are too heavy handed. Once thrown over the crowd into the arms of a bouncer I knew it was time to leave the gig, I didn't need my arm painfully twisted behind my back in order to get me to leave. This venues security should realise that crowd surfing happens at events like these and the people crowd surfing aren't trouble makers just 'lads' caught up in the emotion of a good night out. There really isn't a need for 15stone meat heads to be so heavy handed!

Cheers then! I remember paying a lot of money for live music not bee habitats. Considering this years line up (mainly the headliners) is so poor in comparison to last year the money would have been well spent booking an act to make up for that. Oh well Glastonbury or Reading next year i think!

As pointless as the Stone Roses best of. There were only 2 albums and surely every Libs fan owns them both anyway. What is the point? Clearly just a money maker in the build up to Christmas i guess!
