    If you book it normally, it comes up £70 a night so what are you doing differently?!


    you can either seach using the £26 banner on the left
    or from the homepage i just typed in Wembley and then did the date of the gig!!!

    i actually cant get it to show a normal price? which leads me to ask how you are doing it? :D
    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.

    WTF ... 26 a night ?
    Mine is working out at 80 a night (pounds) in the Ibis ! and that was through some discount site.

    I can't decide where to book. I mean, anywhere's going to be better than the £20 youth hostel I stayed at for the Astoria (mmm, bunkbeds...).
    But the important question is...which will have the better party, Ibis or Farringdon Travelodge? Or should I just get drunk and pass out in the dustbin outside the pub? :)

    I've gone for the Ibis... nice and close for the gig day (which means nearby toilets while sat around waiting :) )

    Yes, I have been to some Pearl Jam concerts. Several of them.

    I should've gone for the Ibis since so many people seem to be staying there (didn't know there was one until after booking though)
    Oh well, my hotel's just next door to the Ibis so I'll just party with you lot and find my way back to my room at some point :D

    i'm booked in from the Sunday now... i remember at the Astoria being knackered as i'd travelled all day and never had a minute to soak everything in... now i'll be in Londinium from the Monday morning all fresh and daisy like :cool:

    well i'll probably have a fucking hangover or something but i wont be travelling all day at least :)

    How about we all take over this place on the Sunday night ??.. http://www.aintnothinbut.co.uk/ :cool:

    A "friend of a friend" told me this place is brilliant. Live music every night - free admission on a Sunday. Also open till midnight too which is pretty good since most places shut at 10.30pm Sundays (or earlier!) Found a review here: http://www.viewlondon.co.uk/review_1985.html

    Any of you Londoners know this bar??

    Licensing laws - Sundays are a bummer for late opening :rolleyes:
    Clubs are different, (probably find a gay bar open ;)) don't know about the rest of you but I'm not really into the clubbing scene.

    Surely there will be somewhere open later that isn't a club.
    Astoria 20/04/06, Leeds 25/08/06, Prague 22/09/06, Wembley 18/06/07,
    Dusseldorf 21/06/07, Manchester 17/08/09, London 18/08/09, LA 06/10/09, LA 07/10/09.

    Ain't gonna be any middle anymore.

    I'm up for anything with some fun - anywhere with a jukebox and good rockin' songs would be quite delightful though but I'll go where I'm told :D
