    A 2 hour jam comprised entirely of Hey Foxymophandlemama, That's Me!

    :D

    Ok, so maybe there's just ONE song i don't wanna hear. 2 hours of Foxymop might actually kill me. Not to mention it's pretty scary!

    thats pretty good. cause that leaves pearl jam to play 2.15 hours. they have to finish at 11 by law. so for all you train taking people : there is plenty of time! no extra infoon extra trains yet, but that will b available within 2-3 weeks

    Greetz all (newcomer to message pit, despite having been fan since the beginning). I'm coming in from Enschede, and notice that the latest train back is 23:28. No way I'm leaving early (and there's a bit of a walk from goffertpark to the station from what I've heard)... so, my plan is to stick around until the first train in the morning, at 05:35... I guess my question is, to those of you who know Nijmegen, is that a completely ridiculous plan? I mean, will Nijmegen be unspeakably boring on a Friday morning (when do pubs close, e.g.) or is it likely that Pearl Jam fans will be singing and drinking in the streets all night long?

    Nightlife is not all that vibrant in Nijmegen. Must pubs close at 2 and a few places stay open until 3 or 4. Try Billabong, ndrgrnd (read underground) or Merleyn.

    Merleyn is cool. Is Dionysos still there? I've been there a couple of times because a friend of mine was a bartender over there...

    I think you mean Diogenes. No, that place shut down a while ago.

    Thanks a lot. According to their Websites, Billabong and ndrgrnd are indeed open until 4am on Thursdays. According to the Merleyn Website, they're arranging something called the "CAPISCE! UPSIDE DOWN PARTY!" <http://capiscedonderdag.nl/2007/05/23/do-28-juni-capisce-presents-upside-down-party/>... Looks like utter crap, but it says it will be open until 6am.

    Just curious, is anybody plannning to camp in Nijmegen?
    We´re going to stay on one of the campsites around Nijmegen (maybe Groesbeek) - Wednesday till Sunday.

    So, the ones who are also not going to Werchter: On Saturday we´re planning to visit the National Park "De Hoge Veluwe" near Arnhem - it´s a great place with free bikes, great bikepaths and wonderful scenery. Join us if you´re interested. :D

    Nope, we drive to Nijmegen and the same evening we are driving home again...

    I've been on the Veluwe many times. It's beautifull over there. Also national park "De hoge Veluwe" is great... I loved cycling in that park.
  • it's officially one day less than a month away from the concert! yipee!
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me...

    I know, I am getting nervous already!!! Actually, I have a confession to make: last week I dreamt about PJ three times..... I know that's a true sign of obsession....

  • so just to get a rough idea, how many people on here plan to be partying all night in nijmegen? i'm thinking about booking a hostel in arnhem but seems like such a waste when i could be happily sleeping on a train to amsterdam on friday morning!

    My God this thread is large!

    I'm from The Hague and I'm also planning on just going to a hotel or something. I'm not gonna leave that concert early just to catch the last train.

    What about night trains though? Anyone knows about them going?

    Anyway, its one month from now, I can't wait. Last time I took 2 buddies with me to the concert in Arnhem but this time I'm going alone because its simply not that cool when u bring people who arent that much into the band.
