My first Pogues gig was in Oslo, back in the nineties, and at Sentrum Scene. I think I was 17 at the time, and had to borrow ID from an acquaintance. She was 29, and the door macho apologised profusely for having doubted my age, I smiled and skipped on in and had a lovely time. Fast-forward a few years and my daughter is born. I named her after the woman who lent me her ID (a fairly rare name it is too).
Morale of the story: Be very careful about who you borrow IDs from, the name might stick with you for the rest of your life!

Have fun at the gig everyone!
Haha, great story!
Well, the fella's (whose ID I might be borrowing) name isn't too shabby, luckily.

I might actually be able to get into the pub all by myself, though, seeing how early we'll be going there. There's little or no chance of any bouncers or age limits above 18 years old that early in the day. At least I hope so.
And of course, the age limit for the concert is 18 years old.
