I’ve done a bunch of reading… and perhaps I am over-complicating this, but can Anyone with travel experience or lives in London tell me whether I should get an Oyster card or a Travelcard? 

I am landing at Gatwick and neither one will do me any good to travel to and fro the airport.  I will be in London for 5 nights total and plan on touring around the city, more than likely Zone 1&2, although I will go anywhere to find a fantastic record store. Thanks in advance for any advice 👍

A London resident will know better but I'm pretty sure you can just tap in and out with contacless bank card and there is a daily cap same as oyster 

For sure, but there appear to be some economic advantages to the Oyster card or travelcard vs, using your bank or credit card. I believe trips get cheaper throughout each day with an Oyster card or something and the travelcard is unlimited trips but might only be beneficial if you stay a full week. 

@1ThoughtKnown
If you tap your bank card, that is capped and gets cheaper throughout the day, there are posters at tube stations which tell you how much the cap is depending on what time you take the tube.  You could compare that to a weekly (zones 1 to 2) travel card.

You could just leave your bags at the hotel and check in after the gig?

Everyone who gets to Hyde Park before me - you have to go see October Drift and Whispering Sons from as close as possible.

other than the tube and bus, what is the best ways to get around London? The ride share sites I have looked at seem to have a lot of bad reviews. I have an Uber app that I use in the States, but Uber doesn’t seem really prominent there. How is Bolt?

Tube is super easy IMO unless you are directionally challenged and takes apple pay / contactless cards.

There’s Uber in London.  Mostly it’s not necessary to use anything but the underground and a little walking, unless someone has a mobility issue.

We plan on taking the Tube while we are there but the place we are staying is about a 20 minute walk from a tube station and we are going to have 2 big suitcases. I was going to take a ride share when we are lugging around the suitcases.

Makes sense.  For sure there is Uber.

So the phonics aren’t as good as they were 20 years ago? 

Dakota was ok, but I checked out on the band with that record. First 4 LPs still slay.

I wasnt a fan 20 years ago unfortunately. But they are going to appeal to a lot of folk that is guaranteed

Well, delighted to be eating these words 

Stereophonics were absolutely tremendous, thoroughly enjoyable show. 

Imelda was really entertaining too, as were the last internationale......some great support
