Okay

My hubby and I will arrive in Nijmegen the day before the gig. Any good ideas on what to see and do in the city? Anyone interested in a drink or two in some pub? Would be cool to meet some fellow PJ fans...

Nijmegen seems like a really pretty place actually! It's the oldest town in Holland, really pittoresque, from what i've seen from photos

I've only passed it and drove straight to the Goffertpark, but it sure looked nice next to the river Waal..

Here's an idea : city walk with map in .pdf

This is from another concert in Goffertpark

You should definitely go to the pub called "De Blauwe Hand" (the blue hand) which is the oldest pub in Nijmegen (established the 15th century). They have a wonderfull selection of beers!

Maybe we should set up a meeting!

wow, a pub with a history, i like that!
i think as we get closer to "The Event", we'll have to organize a meeting at that pub, the night before
that is as long as the landlady at the B&B we're staying lets us out late at night. She sounded pretty strict on the phone:D

Hi!

I´m from Sweden, and as you know we didn´t get a show this time either...

I´m thinking of going to Holland instead.

Are there any tickets left?

If yes, where do I get them?


Thank you!

It all depends on how early you want to head to the festival grounds... We could all meet in the center somewhere for a drink.

About the weather, last year we had the longest heat wave ever, statistically that wouldn't be good for this year, but since the weather is really weird lately I think it'll be a very nice day weather wise.

Except for 1947, 1975, 1976 and maybe some more :P
