    I am with you Dimi, Not booking accommodations yet for Amsterdam and Berlin. I want to see where everyone is staying and have fun! I am leaning more towards hostels and not hotels - cheaper and a lot of fun in my experience.
    Still can't believe I met Mike Mccready at the Guggenheim and got a pic with him!!!!!

    Highly recommend the Bulldog Apartments

    http://www.bulldoghotel.com/TheBulldogH ... tments.htm

    Note the ceiling on the third last picture. It becomes very interesting after sampling local produce!!!


    Stayed there last month. And assuming there are no serial killers amongst us, the rooms share 3 a go. Plenty of other hostels/cheap accom in the city. Train is €4 from Schipol to Centraal. And you will not be short on things to do. You will also not drink a finer heineken in the world. Maybe a thread for each gig, with plans for us all to meet up. I am defintely going to Ams, perhaps more.

  • oh and the good part is airtix and hotel in place like Amsterdam ,Berlin,Oslo etc will not change prices after presale..
    but small places,like Arras,Leuven(small town next to Wercther..)prices will be double soon..

    btw ..important...people stay at Brussels and want ot go with train to Wercther and back after the show,beware that there arent all night trains back from Leuven to Brussels,and the pj will finnish very late as it seems,dont want to stay all night at the station..not that isnt safe,its a safe town Leuven,but will be tired,and isnt smart pay hotel in Brussels and pass night at the train station

    check 1st page for the site of Belgium trains for details

    Manchester MEN is the largest indoor arena in Europe with a capacity of 21,000

    On a related note : Manchester Evening News will end its thirteen-year naming sponsorship at the end of 2011, when the venue will revert to the name of Manchester Arena , as a new sponsor naming partner is sought.
