    We're driving by down from Sheffield. Any idea how long it will take to navigate through London to the Astoria on a Sat afternoon?

    He hasn't been touring with a support band in the US so you can expect the same here. 2 Days to go, whoooooooooooooo!

    If the doors open at 7pm and there's no support band, why's he coming on at 9pm? That's quite a wait.

    Paris tonight wash....
  • pdh1978pdh1978 Posts: 211
    Just saw on the Chris Cornell boards - NME are running a competition for the M&G tomorrow night: nme.com

    They also reckon there won't be a support, even thought the tickets say so...

    Does anyone know how long his shows in the US were lasting? i.e. if it's 11pm finish - 2hr show, then on stage at 9? Think I'll get in there by 8 to be on the safe side...

    I'm going to see him in Paris tonight, couldn't make it to the London gig and since I know people in Paris I've got a place to crash out after the gig.
    I'll be sure to report back!

    Still pissed off that I didn't win the meet & greet though :(

    He's not going. He thinks Chris Cornell is a "greasy monkey". But he hopes we all have a lovely time!
