It's really late but I just had to share my experiences of my second ever concert, and my first ever in a stadium, and especially in a stadium as large as Wembley!
We went to see George Michael, and we have had a great night! It was quite awesome, walking up the stairs and suddenly looking down over all the thousands of people sitting in the stadium! By the time we had arrived, George Michael had just started - ten minutes early, just before 8pm, and he went on until about 10pm. There was a great range of songs, some that I didn't really know but were good to listen to, and some of the good old fashioned favourites. His encores were Careless Whisper and True. There was a lot of dancing, clapping and waving hands in the air. Great fun!
Also enjoyed the hot dog (£5.50 for a hot dog and a coke), and the toilets inside were clean and had toilet paper (unlike those outside) although the queue was really long during the break.
There was some good community singing, and the graphics on the stage and the whole set were really vibrant. He also had a blow up George Bush and a blow up Tony Blair. George Michael was some distance away from us, so pretty small, but like H said he still managed to look quite tall so he must be.
I'd like to go to a football match at Wembley - even though we were almost the furthest away, and all the other people were really tiny, the pitch still seemed quite close. And it was filled with sound, although I suppose with all the electrics it would be.
It was really busy on the way back - there were loads of police horses keeping us all calm, and every so often they had to close the tube to ease congestion. But we got back home no problem, and around midnight.
A great night out - and I feel as if I've caught the concert bug! When's the next one?! (Oh - Prince, at the O2, in September ... !)
