    So what is the best way to get from Manchester to London?


    oh and the MEN and Manchester travelodge are within half a mile of Manchester Victoria rail station...

    i'm soooo excited.... any of you guys coming for a Sunday 16th pre-meet party booze up thingamajiggy????? 8-)8-)
    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.

    Theres also the megabus thing for a quid - if you book it early enough. There are people over on the NIN forums doing the same thing as in July they play MEN / O2 back to back...theres also national express from Chorlton Street Bus Station, or virgin trains to London every hour or so from Piccadilly station - earlier you book the cheaper it is. Try virgin or thetrainline.com. Also dont travel peak hour, which is before ten am i think. Only takes 2 1/2 hrs max to get to London Euston.

    Nice idea - but more than likely not as we will more than likely have to stay over after the gig as last train for Liverpool (where I live now) leaves Victoria at 1109...ive never seen a band break curfew but i aint hopping on my dodgy back for that train! One of us could drive, though not very fair on one staying sober, so may book in and make a night of it...its all good!

    Jenny it's too far in advance. Cheap train fares usually released 8-10 weeks before travel.

    Keep an eye on here to see when they become available

    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    "Pearl Jam have announced a short European tour for this Summer.

    Four dates have been announced for August, including Manchester and London, with a full-scale 2009 tour expected following the release of the band's new album in Autumn."

    (from some news item - googled - there are several sources stating this)


    So... there may still be hope for me?

    Cor blimey, what a chore it is to message in all these threads and on facebook, never mind texting!!!

    I'm looking for 2 spares for London. My 2 very dumb mates forgot to renew their 10c! Pm if you can help me out.


    So hoping they come back after Sep for you guys that can't make it. x

    The thing is, unless you go seating (with the hope of good seats to the side), the standing 10C don't offer early entrance it would seem. Your friends could try with the General Sale and their tix would be the same as yours.

    Yeah, that is another option. Taking me a while to sort they're tickets out so I might just get them to sort it!

    I JUST GOT 2 FOR BERLIN!

    Guys I can't believe this is happening!

    I come back home, I switch on my laptop, I check my emails and facebook... and I SEE!

    Went straight to Goods section and saw the dates... I got an inspiration and I bought Berlin!
    I was in London Astoria in 2006 so maybe that's why I decided to go for the Berlin gig... I was there with my gf in 2005 and it's a beautiful city... and now I'll go back there to see Pearl Jam!

    I can't believe it! I am going out rite now to celebrate PEARL JAM back in EU!

    Thank you guys!

    Well - it's been along time since I said hi to some you guys! Sorry, its been a crazy couple of years with so much going on (including a new baby girl, she's 11 weeks old now and of course loves PJ!) and haven't been online much!

    But - I got Manchester tix - even though I didn't even know about this tour til a little while ago and thought there was no way I would get tickets!

    Really hope to catch up with the Astoria/Dublin crew!
