The angle for ME is limited as you will be seeing the FW from a repeated spot most of the time due to the orientation to the centre stage

Last night's experience was very important for me.. I realise several equipment limitation, setting errors etc..

I will try to shoot in portrait position on actual day and prevent using wide angle, hopefully reduce distortion.

Will also try buy a bigger tripod and bring a string along (tie camera to railing!)

haha.. ya.. I did not know that too! Lucky i was walking with my camera still mounted on tripod. So quickly open up the legs again and managed to snap a few.

Actually i was there abt 7 plus also. All 'front row seats' taken up already. But i found a small gap with no one there, very happy.. went over there.. got a BIG hole in the ground! Not usuable space.. thats why no one there!
