    just a quick (probably stupid) question for the swiss jammers...
    we're coming down from germany just for the day and i'd like to know if most places accept EUR or only SFr (you know, for things like parking and drinks etc)...
    or do you think it's just generally a better idea to exchange some money to the local currency?

    You cant use Euro anywhere here,perhaps maybe in a hotel but everywhere else is CHF.

    I got 10c tickets and at the time it said it was a seated venue, but it seems now its been changed to general admission　I am dissapointed because at the time I could still have got tickets for elsewhere --Milan or Paris etc Im travelling all the way from Japan to the UK ,and my father tells me Switzerland is very expensive so Im feeling a bit worried ,I wouldnt have minded the extra expence if I could have used my 10c number 176**He,He,He!!!!to get a good seat Now I am going to have to run like mad in the first 15 mins!!! to get to the front --never done that before!!! Its a good job Im a fit 53 year old ----Bit worried about the knees though --they are a bit rough after several accidents!!!!the waiting and excitement is killing me!!!!!


    I bet those knees won't feel a day over 30 once the PJ adrenalin starts evenflowing!!! You'll get a spring in your step the closer you get to show time. Something tells me this show is going to be special. Hail Hail to those lucky enough to be there!!
    I was alone and far away when I heard the band start playing!

    we got out tickets the day they went on sale.
    my girlfriend comes home from work and says she has a suprise for my birthday but wont tell me :(..
    after a couple of hours of shining a bright light on her face and doing my best gestapo accent she caves in and shows me the tickets.
    words cant explain how much i freaked out.
    cant wait

    but someone told me they did pay in euros at some touristic places but i guess you get ripped off anyway if you do this...

    my only problem is that things didn't quite work out as planned and now i happen to have
    ONE spare TENCLUB ticket
    for sale (face value, of course!)

    any takers? anyone still looking for tix?
    we're going to be a group of people and try to be there early so you could meet me in the 10c line on the day of the show to claim the extra ticket...

    if it's going to be like most other shows i've been to it should be no problem selling it outside the venue on the day of the show as there's always people looking for tickets, but it's a 10c ticket and i'm not looking for a profit... and basically, i want my ticket to find a good new home with someone who REALLY likes the band :)
    pm me if interested...

    still got the spare ticket?

    i hope you got the biggest room in the hotel, don't make such an invitation, if you can't handle a few thousand ;-)

    hee hee..
    well the plan was to meet there then split to the city centre or the closest place for a couple of beers.
    if anyone is up for a meet then pm me and ill give you the hotel name,probably best not to have 4000 people trying to buy a beer in the hotel bar :)
