Do we know where exactly the new venue is? Is it near the LTU Arena?

No English.

Basics:
- 12500 seater indoor arena, mostly for ice hockey
- Rath area in Dusseldorf
- get there by shuttle bus from the Rath train station
- http://www.rheinbahn.de/opencms/opencms/html/en/index.htm has all the transport details

Pegasus

made a little map showing where it is compare to LTU:

smaller is better..and Ice venues are good (see Torino and Zagreb last year )..maybe because they're cooler so more energy left

Thanks for that map. The hotel we booked is just about in the middle between the two venues, so still don't have far to travel!

It's now on the PJ website:

I was in Cologne last weekend and saw a poster for the show right outside the Cologne main station. Ignore the venue part since that has now changed.

I think it's about time we arranged a meet up the night before the gig!

Is there anywhere that you locals can recommend?

I hope I can get my hands on one of those!

Ok so i'm still in my obsessive double-triple-checking phase for this Euro tour, so anyone kind enough to check something for me?

I'm booked at Hotel Am Spichernplatz, and according to mapquest.com ISS Dome is 3.2 miles away from the hotel.

Hotel address is:

Hotel Am Spichernplatz
Ulmenstrasse 68
Dusseldorf
Dusseldorf, Germany 40476

and we're going to:

ISS Dome
Theodorstrasse 281
Dusseldorf
Nordrhein-Westfalen 40472

I feel like such a loser but i don't care! If someone can confirm i've got the right directions, that'd be great!

You did it right again!!
(Just needed some reassurance myself cause we're going to Duesseldorf too. And London..how many times did I check our flightnumbers, timetables, the booked hotel, etc...secretly just as obsessed as you are!)

hehe, i'm glad i'm not the only one! It's good to be sure! I know it's a hard question...are you looking forward to any specific show?

Yeah that's a tough one!! I'm excited about all of them and never in my life I had to focus on 5 so I'm a bit confused. Can't believe it myself, last year we had Arnhem and Paris and I can't choose which one was best. Both awesome concerts in different ways. Now I'm looking forward to London the most I think because of the 10C tickets. I like the smaller venues better than festivals when I'm going to see Pearl Jam! I'm glad Duesseldorf venue shrank a bit!
And you?

And you?

London is obviously gonna be special because there's so many fanclub members, but i think i'm most looking forward to Copenhagen. It's the band's first time back since Roskilde, it's probably going to be a really special and emotional show.

I'm pretty glad about Dusseldorf too, a half empty stadium wouldn't have had the same atmosphere as a sold out smaller arena. It'll be buzzing now!

Meh. You guys have nothing on me until you start budgeting for that coffee you pick up after the train ticket you paid for to get from the airport to the hostel, while calculating how much Travelex charges for withdrawals in another currency unit.

And multiply that for 10 places. And lots of cups of coffee.

At least we can do is to offer you some cups of coffee to ease the pain and to stay awake..we know life is expensive here

there's more of us crawling out of the woodwork now lol. I guess it's the thought that one small hiccup could have a domino effect and result in missing a PJ show. That's just not going to be allowed!
