    You have a point sir! Keep forgetting we've 3 days in Manchester/ London the week after.

    If your Mike poster arrives Mon will I bring it to the airport with me? Are you driving or getting a lift?

    hey everyone

    i know there are meetups arranged for before the gig, but not sure if something was going on after? anyway - just thought i would post this..

    106.1 rock radio here in manchester is running a pearl jam "afterparty" at Walkabout in Manchester which is not far at all from the MEN Arena.... might be a good way for people to spend time before catching late/early morning coaches to london or wherever.

    more info here - http://promo.gmgradio.com/3605/

    they did these things for the metallica and ac/dc gigs in manchester earlier this year and i must admit they were really good. so there you have it.
    2006 - Astoria, Dublin, Leeds
