    No direct train.  Argh.
    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. 


    This is the one I booked. Got a sleeper.

    Prague folks - looking forward to seeing Prague and the band...on the Czech transport site there are e-tickets and paper tickets for options on the 10:24 train. Is there any differences/advantages purchasing a paper ticket instead of an eTicket? Thank you.

    On that site it shows the E-tickets being sold out. I was talking to someone on Facebook that booked on that site and they gave him this message. Something funny is going on. You can no longer book on the official site either.

    Odd. I can try again after May 17th. Would it matter if I get e-Tickets vs Paper tickets (presuming could purchase a paper at this time)?

    I eventually figured it out. I was hoping to get e deluxe sleeping berth for the wife and I.  We have the bottom 2 bunks on a 2nd class 3 person berth. I guess we will be sleeping with a stranger that night lmao.
    Cost 106 CDN for the two of us.  A nights sleep for way less than a hotel.  We wanted to be fresh to check out the salt mine before the show!

    If you get an e-ticket make sure you print it. It has to be printed and stamped by a Czech conductor either before you get on the train or on the train before it crosses into Poland. I’m going to get mine stamped in the station before I get on.

    So, how was the pre-party back in 2012? I've been so busy planning the trips, not even thought about the party on June 30th.  The pub looks cool, was it a good night last time?

    And so is bringing a fake tree or bush/hedge to hide behind.
    Maybe I missed something here, but did someone on this message board or thread say that they were bringing a fake tree/bush/hedge to hide behind in the hopes of meeting Pearl Jam?

    I am planning on taking a night bus right after the show to Krakow from Prague. Need some help/advice on where I should stash my bag and poster before the show? I read reports that we can not bring posters into the venue if we buy from the pop up shop outside. Is anyone bringing a car to the venue or have a hotel nearby that could help a couple of fans out? We would grab them right after the show and would try to inconvenience you as much as possible.

    You're a lousy salesman.

    So, rather annoyingly the Prague-Krakow-Berlin trifecta means exchanging to three different currencies...

    How expensive is Prague? We're there from June 30th until late evening on July 2nd so we have a couple of days of exploring we can do. How much approximately would we need, taking into account food/drinks etc?

    Someone from the country would be better suited to answer but most places take credit cards and Euros in Prague. Here is a series of videos I have watched and thought they were extremely helpful with my preparation. There are over a dozen different vids from these guys and all were helpful.
