This thread is for discussion of the concert itself, and will be opened just prior to the concert beginning.

I could feel through the tv how nervous they were to speak in front of all of those people! They did good though. Its good they had those flashcards so they didn't go blank in front of everyone.
I think I saw Kate in the crowd.
Is it just me or is the stadium not full?

Yeah Kate was there, I think beside her brother.

The press is now saying she and William only split for 4 days, I obviously do not know if they are still dating but if not she was with William while planning this concert and should be there romance or not.

People have just not arrived yet - with the speed the tickets were sold out, I doubt there will be any unoccupied places.

Here are the first pictures from the stadium:

So, Chelsy is there sitting right next to Harry. . .very interesting! Kate is up in the stands a few rows above William and Harry, and Beatrice and Eugenie are also there, sitting in the same area as Kate.

Two other quick things - first, Kate looks STUNNING! Second, does anyone know who the three "triplets" are? (The three girls singing along to everything and making up little cheers sitting right behind William and Harry)?

To get the idea what rmc27 is talking about (by the way, thanks for all the information), here are the pictures:

I like the "Diana & me" stories.

I think I see one of the van Custem boys behind William.

No, not yet. There are a lot of empty spaces but it is a loooong concert lasting hours.

The guy sitting next to Kate Middleton is James Middleton, her brother. Pippa is present there as well. She's on the other side of Kate. Kate and her brother and sister are sitting two rows behind the Royal box. I must say that Chelsy looks very pretty, and it's obvious she and Prince Harry are affectionate.
