I'd then find out which colour they were using for the gig re-admission and draw the appropriate shape on the back of my hand.
When SPK played there, there was some problem with the GLC not granting them a licence for pyrotechnics, so they threw a strop and walked off after 15 minutes. Many people stormed the box office and demanded their money back. The ICA would only offer free tickets for any other gig that week. Eventually the police were called and vouchers to claim a refund were issued. In the chaos I managed to claim free tickets for three gigs and get one of the refund vouchers, despite not paying to get in in the first place.
I think, now, the ICA stops gallery and cinema ticket holders from using the bar when there is a gig on, so sneaking in is a lot harder.

I'm the opposite of blagging - I get invites, have the tickets and can't normally get to the gig. God, I wouldn't have it in me to blag in to gigs. I hate seeing people saying 'I'm with the band' it's :oops: and all very tiresome.

Cock Weasel, whom many of you will know on here, got into a sold out gig at the Barfly once by playing the raspberry card. Stood with his crutches as the poor young lad on the door looked up and down a credit card list for a name he'd never find (as he'd never actually bought a ticket). Eventually let him in as the huge buffoon was becoming a fire hazard blocking the stair well.

Bola and I once got into Cargo when I claimed I'd bought a ticket online. Within 30 seconds of the guy starting to look for my name I realised I'd never actually got round to buying them. Still got in for nowt as the manager couldn't be bothered to quibble with us.

Anyone claimed to be 'in the band' or Geoff Travis or owt?
