Astorians with tickets

Tell me the colors and I will make one out of shoelaces! if I still remember how...

I think we just sort of came to the "wear what you want" conclusion.
Personally, i will be wearing a red, white and blue wrist band of some sorts. If not a sweatband from ebay then one i have made myself.

UKDave

Cool, is it still 3pm onwards.....?

Wow, has the exciting "what colour of wristband" debate been closed? I was hoping that was gonna last until the gig!

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.

ellie_vedder

I'd guess so. I think it kind of came to the conclusion of wear what you want and show up when you want!!!
This time in 2 weeks, we will all be standing in the same room as Ed. God, i am going to be in heaven. I can't even begin to describe how much i adore him.

UKDave

Yeah, only problem I have tonight is leave the itunes browsing through my PJ collection or throw one of the DVD's on.......?!!

I'll tell you how I'm passing this weekend, I am making all my friends watch singles with me while freezing frame and playing over and over the parts where Eddie plays the drums, Eddie watches the Bee movie and Eddie says his line! (while trying really really hard not to mess it up)
I love the soundtrack on that one! hope they do breath...

Royal George is a pub that serves a variety of traditional bar food and can cater for private parties of up to 75 guests upon request. They also provide a wide range of entertainment including Sky TV as well as a selection of fruit and quiz machines.

i think they'll manage to accommodate us no problems...

UKDave

Beaming... listening to Immortality (Benaroya Hall version)!!

This is my ultimate gig, if I don't self combust with excitement first!!

Got tickets for Reading too, taking my lads (16 & 13) to that one!!

Do you think we should warn them that they might have quite a few customers that day?

Ok, can someone from London or at least in England contact the Royal George and tell them that we have x amount of people coming? This way we will get an area of the pub reserved for us and as mentioned previously, maybe some freebies... food/discounted drinks blah blah. It may not be necessary as we will not be there at night but worth at least the enquiry.

UKDave

Does anyone know what "x" is then.....?!

there's one of the ladies on this here thread who works near the George... i just cant remember what page of the this monolithic thread it was on

it might not be necessary but if we let them know they might put on extra staff and somewhat...

also.. we need to see who is all wanna go out after the gig... obviously trying to stop the scots is pointless... but who else is with us???

i know fuck all about the area but others obviously will... its just that after the gig we could all rendevouz back at the George and go from there??? anybody think this is a good idea? we'll definitely get split up at the Astoria but if we all went back to the George... :cool:

i'm definitely at George pre-show... and probably post show... then we'll decide what we are doing huh?

hopefully the folk who are meeting pre-show will want to spend the night in another pub talking about the most fuckin amazing gig they have just witnessed :cool:

einatshaul

I can't think of it as being: post-gig...
that's devastating...
let's just Invite them over with us, have our private all night gig at the rayal george...
