Can't remember exactly what it's like at the O2, but I'm pretty sure they search everyones bags.

Originally posted by dylbagz:Security was more present at the shows on the east coast of the US, wands, metal detectors etc. But as all the iem tapers will (won't) say, there are ways to get around it.. Could happen anywhere in the world regardless of security, unless they go full on x-ray / airport / Chinese tourist attraction style. As it is, it's just a deterrent for people who aren't overly serious. If you really wanna do some damage, you'll find a way around concert security
Originally posted by jennagirl:If the threat was indeed against Bono, which I so hope it was not, I fear for the future shows in terms of security nightmares, and the accessibility we have so enjoyed with Bono and the band all along. One crazy person can change so much, let's hope this wont. Feeling so sad now.Just want them all to be safe.
