    No one is answering but I'll keep asking...

    Every one here actualy going to Astoria to see the band while sober and conscious enogh...

    Let's let them know we are "real fans", love them, know all their songs etc...
    I've just heard the Den Haag 92' boot version of "Deep" and it's unbelieveable!!!
    I'm really hoping for a friendly show and good chemistry between us

    No worries there, i want to remember the gig, the pub beforehand is to develop friendships and have fun with like minded people...but i do like a few beers!

    Sorry, i know nothing of the Astoria events but looked up the gay night and it says 10.30pm-4am so i guess that's the reason for a slightly earlier start.

    Oh, Deep is one of my fav's, a rarity live though!

    wouldn´t worry if I were you ;)
    I think the cloths are probably good at the bottom ...I know I am.. :D
    and how could it be anything but friendly and ##cking amazing...


    Can´t wait....

    Only 18 more days of insomnia left.

    It looks like there's gonna be a good crowd of us, maybe we should phone the pub and get a PJ section marked off haha.

    For those of us wishing to continue the night after the gig i might be able to arrange some guest list passes to some clubs!

    i'm obviously up for a few pints before hand... it would be a sin against my nation to not drink :) however i do want to remember the whole gig... so i'll be having a few small ales before hand... fuck knows what'll happen afterwards though :)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Hello all, thought I'd throw my hat into the ring. I got tickets and its my first fucking show!!!!!!!! Been trying to get to see this band for the last 15 years, but for one reason or another never succeeded, and I don't feel guilty in the slightest.

    Me and the missus are travelling down on the Megabus ! :D for a tenner each return from birmingham. We decided to pay a little bit extra for a hotel and treated ourselves to http://www.stgiles.com/londonhotel/london_hotel_rooms.html its not the Savoy but it's in spitting distance of the Astoria, which by the way looks like a cosy little place for a first PJ gig.

    WWS will be the opener mark my words.

    Awright lads!

    Welcome on board Chumfatty and FinsburyParkCarrots, you guys are more than welcome.

    I'll be there dunk, i'm meeting ScotinAmsterdam around midday so we'll take a wander around the city and meet up at the George...which is basically looking to be the place right?

    I'm currently arranging a place to stay but may end up at the Farrington Travelodge. Will let you all know.

    Keep chatting guys and it will all come together nicely.

    will arrive at farrington around 1.30 or so. once we get everyone confirmed we should talk abt meeting up at farrington itself b4 heading towards Royal George or wherever we decide.

    i have a mate coming for the show but otherwise ill be alone. and the room's still up for grabs!!! 13 quid come on!!

    i've been to a few stag do's and Travelodge are pretty good about stuff like this... they'll normally at least let you put your bag in somewhere safe. but also if the room is empty but not yet cleaned say, they will sort you out with your keycard and let you be on your merry way.

    you'll just have to see how it goes on the day... dont worry... its Pearl jam feet away from your face.... and its 24hr drinking nowadays.. .why did i bother with a hotel room LOL!!

    can ScotinAmsterdam edit your first post to include a list of attendees + wives/partners/mates/etc?? that would let everyone become familiar with names and numbers etc!!


    see how i swiftly evaded the need for me to edit and update the list by "passing the buck" to Scot

    Muahahahaha, "heeeeds" - Flying TV

    Aye, i'm on my lonesome but have mates that live in London so i'm staying friday night as well!

    It looks to be the farrington for me too! I could stay with my mates but its far away from the Astoria and they wont be out thurs.

    Aye! 24 hour drinking....beer warmth instead of a hotel! Haha.

    Good bit of "buck passing" Dunk, nice one.

    Nae luck ScotinAmsterdam, you're now "meeting administrator" and are solely responsible for the smooth operation of this event.

    Ive Pm'd a guy from the Scottish Contigent thread that hasnt been around so i'm sure him and his mate will want to meet, that's if he checks his messages, so might be 2 more!
