    my sister calls me a control freak.. :confused:

    I don't understand why. I mean, I'm not really that organised.. :o

    which is why I stand in awe when reading this most organised and informational thread created by the lovely mr dunkman!

    I'll be up for Monday afternoon, but as I'm crashing at my brother's, I'll forgo the club. I can't just turn up at his door wasted in the early hours: me bruv lives in one of those gated-community type places, with helicopters and guard dogs and Phil Spector minding the door.

    Erm, don't wish to sound rude nor weird but...

    Have a ticket for Monday, booked into one of the travelodges. First time in twenty years I've been to a gig on my own. If I head to the Green Man on Monday afternoon am I ok to tag along with some of you guys? Promise I will have a shower beforehand!

    Feel like a right Billy No Mates otherwise.

    ok i've updated the 1st post to state that we are all meeting In the RUPERT STREET BAR!!

    this pub is massive and this is the first bar as you enter from Rupert Street... once theres a load of us in then we can move upstairs if need be.. still unsure or if your arriving late then get some phone numbers of people going and ask where we all are :)
    The Rupert St bar is pretty small, but it'll do. I was in there this afternoon :D

    Guinness is 3,20 by the way

    it'll need to do... we've been asking Londoners for nearly 4 months of a suitable location and not one answer was put forward.

    £3.20 a pint!!! still cheaper than Dublin that though!! :D:D

    Hehe I suspect I'll do what I was doing in Dublin, randomly asking people in PJ tees or just looking like they might like the band, whether they were on here. I got a few odd looks :cool:

    Anyway, the more the merrier to add to out lil gang :D

    Is there a Wetherspoons nearby? Twice as much drink for the same price. Sounds like a bargain, to me.
