  • Hi all,

    Managed to get VIP (whatever that means) tickets for PJ in Prague. Me and the Mrs have been fans since the beginning but this will be our first PJ concert ever!
    Really excited about going to Prague, only ever been abroad once and that was years ago. We'll be travelling from Cornwall and arriving a day early. Would love to meet with you lot before the gig. Is it still the rock cafe? if so can somebody let me know where it is and how to get there? I figured if we can find you all in plenty of time for drinkies then there'll be no chance of getting lost on the way to the gig.

    Cheers
    Mark + Tini

  • Welcome to the board Mark, so cool that you are going to Prague.

    So far the Rock Cafe is the place to meet, on the 21, we are getting close to 30...with that many people we can party wherever we want :D
    I feel very close to you all now; so close I could almost... loan you money. Really. it goes that deep.

  • is that rock cafe big enough for all of us...? :)
    stood at the top of the hill over my town i was found. finding myself used to be hard but now i see the light. this is music.
  • is that rock cafe big enough for all of us...? :)

    I am sure we will all be able to squeeze in. If not it will have to be a street party. :)

  • How did you manage to score VIP tickets?

    Long story, it was an ebay job i'm afraid. Got a package deal which includes a couple of nights in a hotel. The seller said VIP tickets but from what i've read it means front of stage. How near to the front? well that remains to be seen! We're hoping to get to the venue in good time and get a good spot.

    So, does anyone have an address or web address for this rock cafe?

    Also, is there going to be a meet up on the big day?

  • We arrive on the 21st sometime in the afternoon.
    Hopefully we'll get time to squeeze in some sights before the meetup. I wish we'd booked a couple more days to explore the place a bit more.

    I've been keeping an eye on the setlists over the last few weeks, looks like we're in for a real treat!

    I like their new stuff but i'll never get tired of hearing the classics. It's such a good job they don't get tired of playing them for us. If they play jeremy, given to fly or thin air then my gig-going career will be complete! Going all goose pimply just thinking about it...right, where's that old guitar i used have?

    hi there,

    just a short note from me:
    prague is one of the most beautiful cities in europe, same exciting historically as cultural multicoloured as far as i know it from a 3day visit last year :-)

    does everybody here already have a place to crash?

    I'll be staying overnight from Thursday to Friday and still wonder which place to chose - a hostel makes most sense.

    This one in the north between city centre and venue seems pretty brilliant:
    Around 13 € / 15 Dolars for a mixed room incl. free tea/coffe, incl. garden and a pub downstairs + spacious rooms with comfortable beds (...)

    Or other alternatives? Gonna meet my mates on Friday...

    Hopefully it is! Never been to the city or the bar... Sadly it seems that the place is still under reconstruction:

  • Ok people as i mentioned before you all got caught up in the moment ;-) ....

    The rock cafe would probably not be so suitable. We need to find a bigger place that is tolerant of us.

    This was my 1st thought as it was one of my usual bars in Prague and a friend worked behind the bar: http://www.hospodalucerna.cz/

    I need to contact him to see if he still works there. This bar is quite big although busy so a booking is essential.

    How many people we at roughly now?

  • Excellent!! I'll give a couple more days for people to have a look at the place then if its all good then i'll make a reservation. For the record it is very easy to find, just off Wenceslas Square.

    I forgot to mention this place does excellent food at good prices.
  • IMO it doesn't really matter where we meet, i know we are going to rock Prague!! But thanks for the info I Scot, it's really helpful that you know the city so well. This hospoda lucerna seems like a cool place.

  • Its not a rock n roll joint by any standards but it will hold us all, has food and drink at good prices and its right in the heart of the city so getting to the venue will be very easy and hassle free.
  • hospo dalucerna.....

    AHOJ!!!!! sounds perfect very happy to meet there!
    Salut baloo
  • hey, just want to clarify something: are we all meeting on the day of the gig for a few drinks beforehand or are we meeting up Thursday night to go on the piss? (both is fine by me btw!)
