    you obviously have not bought the PJ Wembley from them..still not received and they can't (won't) even tell me where they are :mad:

    Seetickets I do't like since they tried to screw me up with a fake IC date (on sale 1 day, cancelled the next, on a different date..they tried to keep the booking fee)

    oh dear, that doesn't sound good. i can't remember where i got mine from, i think it may have been ticketmaster, but i haven't recieved them yet either so don't worry.

    i didn't think they sent them out until nearer the time anyway?

    I didn't get Cornell Astoria tickets as I can't have the time off work but I just saw the announcement that nme.com have put on their site regarding this gig where it says this is the first of his UK headline shows.

    With the album not out here until late May/early June, it sounds promising he may visit other cities following the albums release :)

    Let's bump this baby up a little.

    So, have any plans been made for meet up's? I assume the George would be the most appropriate venue? Was just wondering when the best time for the meetup would be i.e. the night before or a lunch booze up?

    I'm thinking about taking the afternoon off...or at least leave early...but don't think the night before is the best idea.

    Yep...can't do the night before either. Im trying to take as little time off work as poss so im considering travelling back home after the gig that night.

    Now, i've looked on the GAY site and there doesnt seem to be anything listed for the 16th may after the gig.
    What I dont know is there a 'night' on every wednesday at GAY which would effectively mean a curfew for Cornell????

    If there's a curfew I have more of a chance going home that night, if not, i'll be taking the next day off work.

    I was at the Astoria last night and the gig didn't finish until about 11.15

    I was in Holland when the gig was announced and when tickets went on sale. If there are any knocking around I'll be happy to take them off your hands. ;)

    So, a week today folks :D

    Obviously the meet up is at The George. What time are people getting down there for? I need to decide whether to take a half day off work or a full day!

    In the main Cornell tour thread someone posted pics of the Ladies T that's been sold so far and it looked good so hopefully it will be at the Astoria ... I'm sure there will be merch ...
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    Watched the webcast last night with a couple of beers, and it was superb - particularly Sunshower and JCP. His voice is still amazing and the band were excellent too. Can't wait for Wednesday!!
