Craig David (Comp. Tickets Series)

Craig David! His show at the Big Dome rocked! This time I blog as a fan. We have his CDs-- love, love, love his music.

We were given a difficult time by the coliseum people though:

• First, some of our group's names weren't on the guest list for ID passes. Coliseum staff's fault (some brilliant girl FORGOT to give the names to the south gate people).
• Next, a painfully dull employee manned the list of incoming guests at that dreadful south gate. She decided she should be "strict" that night and 'question' if DIRECTORS of a multinational company (queued at her table) were actual employees of the company after IDs were presented to her.
• She DID NOT have the means to contact her superior in case head honchos of certain organizations entered her gate and she is confronted with the brain numbing decision to let ONE unlisted name in, even after seeing that all the other directors accompanying that one name were already on her sad, sad "list"
• She had to get word from her supervisor whom OUR GROUP HAD TO CALL USING ONE OF OUR CELLPHONES before she started believing that we were all issued complimentary passes.

... duh to forever and the tenth of never!!! I swear those people are so tragically disorganized and slow. Shame, shame, shame on that evening's AC staff. Well, a sensible "course of action" comes to mind. Change your people to a less dim-witted set. That might lessen the blow on the venue's reputation.

But the concert was GREAT. Craig David was GREAT. GREATER still is the fact that I saw the show on complimentary passes.

My favorite consolation: Hot Pot at David's Tea House.

Yummm like there's no tomorrow!

The promoters should've held the concert at the Fort or the MOA concert grounds instead ;-)
