    Hi Dan!

    Long time no see... hows' your thesis going? Hope everything's fine.

    Dan hope to see ya' in Berlin.
    Greetings from Buenos Aires
    Caterina

    Everything is fine for me personally. My thesis is slowly coming along, and I still entertain the hope to be done in June. I can perhaps formulate my findings to you at some later time should you be interested.

    Would be cool seeing you in Berlin though :)
    We can see about that when it gets closer to the day :)

    Peace
    Dan

    Yes, I'm still interested in your findings, but of course once you're done. No hurries!

    Sure, when it gets closer we can make arrangements to meet in Berlin
    Gotta go back to work!!!

    If anyone is thinking about going to more than one gig and fancies something a bit different(and cheap) for travel and accomodation.... there's a tour bus getting set up....

    Fraser and I are rearranging all we can to ensure we use it to its full, cos it's sure to be a riot:

    I would support England, but the Scots and the Germans have always had so many close ties.... its just like the ties we have with Paraguay, Trinidad and Tobago and Sweden.... we're just closer culturally and feel more at home providing them with our support...

    One of my friends was in Berlin at the weekend... and she took a photo of this just because it said Pearl Jam. She didn't even know I was going to the gig.

    taken from the venue's website:
    Tickets bought in advance include the round trip travel on the Berlin public transportation network, i.e. "S-Bahn", "U-Bahn", trams and buses (VBB-ticket areas ABC) starting three hours before doors open time until termination of public transport services.
    How cool is that?!

    can't imagine Wembley doing that!

    Never saw or listened them before.
    You can get a first impresion on their website http://www.theblackkeys.com/. There's a webplayer.
    Some kind of Bluesrock - could be an interesting support act.
