No I shan't be going. I went to the 2005 X-Factor tour and left at the end of the first half. It was poorly staged with bad sound balance and generally very disappointing.

I'd rather wait and see my favourite act doing a proper show at a later date.

I went to the NEC in Birmingham. I had really looked forward to going and we travelled from Bristol.

I suppose if you're a very young kid or someone just there to scream at the acts it doesn't matter about sound quality. All we could hear were vague vocals being drowned out by too much bass. I presume that the roadies just throw the stage and sound and lighting equipment up quickly but don't bother with proper sound checks.

I went to one of these concerts for Pop Idol at Wembley, with Will Young, Gareth Gates, Darius et al, and found it was very entertaining.

I should imagine that Same Difference will put on a good show, whereever they end up in the competition.

I'd like to go but I know the tickets/seating will be rubbish now.

I'll see if a friend can sort some out - she has contacts

Probably so that there's a relatively popular act on first to make people get there in time
