I'm Ross, and i'm 20 years old. I'll be going with my girlfriend Naomi, who's nearly 20 and also posts on here (Inside|The|Well).

I'll be staying at my aunt's new house after the gig but we're definitely up for meeting beforehand for some drinks and to get to know people!

nik

I'm definately up for meeting before hand...I've waited so long to see them and I still can't believe I will in only a few weeks...

Good shit.... Me and a mate are making a very quick trip to london - cos we have other stuff to do(work and uni), but we'll be making the most we can of those 24 hours!

Scratchin a Letter

I'll be there......... providing eBaY is good to me

ScotInAmsterdam

so you have a spare ticket? Or did you sell it on ebay you lucky bastard?

Riot_Rain

Meeting up beforehand would be good!!!

Haven't taken the day off work yet, maybe I'll work the morning.... Depends also on whether or not we'll have to queue...

I know loads of Dutch Jammers (I'm a Dutch one myself, currently UK resident though), but no British ones yet

ScotInAmsterdam

I'm the opposite, Scottish, but currently in Amsterdam prison, they're letting me out for the day.

ScotInAmsterdam

Does anyone from London know of any big open bars, where we could have a general meeting point?

Do you remember Inside|The|Well? you sent her a bunch of Red Dwarf and Billy Connolly VCDs!

ScotInAmsterdam

A ha. Of course. Thats what I get for only hanging around here sporadically....

Heineken Helen

I know a pub! I used to work in South Kensington in a pub that's attached to the Jury's hotel there - it's on old brompton Rd I think, called Kavanaghs. It can be pretty quiet during the day but it's really big. We could meet there.

Sorry, Hi I'm Helen and I'm 25 coming from Ireland

Well, there's an eerie pub not far from the Astoria.

http://www.eeriepubco.com/pub.php/ben_crouches/

It plays rock music. I've never ever heard Pearl Jam in there, but I've always enjoyed it.

ScotInAmsterdam

hmmmmm eeeerie - good at night. depends what mood we're going for.

Quiet before the "go wild" or build up the energy in a rock bar. I don;t think I need the encouragement, last time I saw them, I had to be scraped off the ceiling most of the day!

Also my favourite barman at the time is now the manager and I bet if we gave him a PJ cd, he'd have absolutely no problem putting it on for us.

ScotInAmsterdam

Now that DOES sound good!

It does sound good, my only concern is that it is not that near to the venue (as far as I'm aware) and with us already being nervous, that could be a bit difficult :S

ScotInAmsterdam

As a scotsman... my knowledge of london doesn;t stretch much beyond albert square.... Anyone want to meet in the Queen Vic... lets face it most folk know it, and we'd all secretly give Little mo one.

Well, South Ken is officially a 15 min tube ride (with 2 interchanges) away from Tottenham Court Road. But my experience with London is that you ahve to count on double the advertised time...

I wish we could just move your pub Helen! Plonk it down just round the corner from the Astoria.

Of course ther's Soho and Carnaby Street not far away and there are zillions of pubs there. I work near Oxford Circus and have had work do's in at least 4 different pubs...
