the rock music will be provided by Pearl Jam on the monday night wont it? so lets find a suitable place that holds all of us and sells beer... any ideas Surfy?
i'm ok with anywhere that has rock music... and ok i might be getting old... but not too loud... i havent met some of these cats for a couple o' years and wouldnt mind talking with them rather than shouting over the top of 108Db of Motley fucking Crue!!
oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

What is the easiest way to get from Manchester to London and what day should I book (whatever transport) for? After the gig or the day after... help is appreciated!

If you fancy a lie in then train the next day will be quicker. I would expect the cheap tickets to go on sale in about a month (usually is about 12 weeks before date of travel) keep an eye on here for when tickets become available http://www.virgintrains.co.uk/buy_ticke ... fault.aspx and if you catch them as soon as they go on sale should cost £10-£15
So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

thats what i couldnt get about the South... nothing was open after say 1am and if you knew of a place that would maybe stay open and then you had to trek around to find it... which is quite hard once pissed.
this is gonna be great!

right, booked into the Travelodge Ancoats. Sunday til Tuesday. Hoping to travel down to London on the morning by train, or if it emerges, mini bus. Looking forward to gettin Locko on sunday night.
Don't book buses just yet...there might be a big bus for all of us.
Also, is everyone staying at the travelodge? I'd prefer to book a hotel where most people are staying.
Potential mini-Midlands-meet Friday/Saturday... Manchester Travelodge on Sunday night... back to the midlands post-gig on Monday, and then down to London Tuesday morning... was going by car, but debating mini-bus rental... what's this big bus malarky?
[edit] as it stands we may have room for others wishing to join us... [/edit]
...London Doesn't Call Anymore... (rip joe)
Yes, I have been to some Pearl Jam concerts. Several of them.
