    So, we're staying at Golden City Hotel Garni.  Google Maps tells me that there is a tram stop 1 minute's walk away and then I can get the 92 tram straight to Multiarena Praha which is the stop for the venue I believe.

    However, Idoz.cz says there are two changes on the journey.  Does anyone know which is correct?
    Either bus 207 to Florenc metro station and then to Ceskomoravska station. Or tram 26 to namestí republiky metro and then to Ceskomoravska station. Both cca 20minutes.

    Hey it's my wife's b-day the day of the show (Jul1) and I wanna take her out for a good lunch or dinner before the show.  Got any ideas?  Nothing too fancy and she's not a drinker.  Ideally a place with good food!

    Take her to the monastery at the top of the hill that overlooks the city. The monks brew their own really good beer and they serve great food. Beautiful old church to peak into on the grounds, great views of the city and Prague castle and a leisurely walk from old town square over the King Charles bridge and up cobblestone streets. Casual, good food and beer and very reasonablely priced. Can’t remember the name but I’ll see if I can find a link.

    Here you go. You don’t need to do the tour unless you want to.

    I just did a trial run with google chrome and got right to the end. What time did you select? There should be a green link to click that says price in next step.

    Are you looking for a day train or night? There looks like a direct train on the nights. For days we need to wait until June 10th for it to update I was told.

    There was a morning direct train that showed up in past weeks.  That's the one I want.

    Ya it may come back on the 10th of June I guess when the schedule updates. People were talking about it in this thread, http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/269983/europe-tour-routing-transportation#latest

    First, tickets were supposed to go on sale 90 days out.  Then 60 days out.  Now June 10.  This is starting to make me uncomfortable.

    After reading everything, the new routes go into effect June 10.  Tickets will be sold for the new routes 30 days in advance.  So May 10, I think.

    Also the website is not very user friendly. For anyone booking a sleeeper, you must also book a seat. Its not very clear
