    Well, I'm only going to one show (Berlin), so wouldn't be much point in getting on the van thing; I just wanted to say that this is an absolutly, seriously, feckin' cool idea! You guys have fun and enjoy!
    You'll probably have the most kick-ass time ever!:D


    Oh, and if the van isn't doing anything special around 11 am in Berlin the 23th you're more than welcome to drop by the airport and give two poor girls a lift to the venue ;)
    j/k :D

    If we get this thing going, please drop by for a drink before the show. Don't think it will be possible to miss us! Not THAT many Touring Buses in the parking lot ;) We will know of it does work out within the next 12 days.....

    To the few that actually bothers checking my posts, is there generally no interest in this? Or are you affraid to get riped of, cuz THAT I can understand!!??? Just qurious, cuz me and pinon REALLY thought this was a great idea! Something a lot of people on here could enjoy! We wanted to come up with a social and fun alternative, a way to get to know new people and spend some serious PJ time with others JUST like one self.

    Please let us know if there is anything we can do! AND, please call us if you need to ask something!

    Hey just to let you know I think it's a great idea and if I was doing any of the tour I would be on the bus :o

    I'm only doing Dublin and Reading though so may see you for a beer anyway ;)
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    Hey AMENt, you KNOW it's a great idea - people are just a bit slow on the go! I wish I could be on that bus of yours but I'm only going to Dublin and Antwerp. I'll second what Chime says - we'll see you for a few beers wherever we are! Keep the faith - your bus will fill up before you know it!

    this is a great idea
    however, I'd only be using this to get from arnhem to antwerp, so not much point in my case

    I'll be sure to look for the van though!
    y la banda de Guille... cuando toca?

    Sure hope so, but it's not the HOT deal we thought it would be :( But, we still have 12 more days to fill it up... If not, pin's Touring Toyota it is :)

    Look here for the update. I kept it simple. It's up to you now.

    I have 3 questions:
    What will people do who skip a concert during a stretch? Stay on the bus or hop off and on again later?
    What night will they sleep in the bus? I assume the night after the concert they 'book' for.
    And finally: the bus will have to get back to London from Zagreb. Will people be able to drive a part of that or the whole stretch back?

    groetjes,
    Mirella :)

    oh, and one more opinion: I think it will be more 'real' if everybody uses their normal name, not nicknames.

    God DAMN you are great :D I can't even begin to explain how much I appreciate this!!! Let me try to answer your questions as good as I can.

    Your question nr 1: We PREFERE they stay on an entire streach. But they may also reserve their spot by actually paying for the night/nights they won't be on. Maybe another solution is better, but as I said, we prefere them on for the whole streach.

    Your question nr 2: We pick up passengers after a show is finished. Say 3 persons gets of after Paris, then three new gets on and pays for the following night. Bags may be collected after the show. Then as soon as everyone is on, we leave for the next city.

    Your question nr 3: After Zagreb the bus returns to the UK. Those who want can have a ride back to London OR jump of in a city along the busses rout. (Not sure what the rout is though. Need to ask the bus company) I THINK me and pinon will go back to London and fly back home from there, but we have yet to decide

    PLEASE let me know if there is anything else you need to know! And girl, THANK YOU :D You are THE BEST!! If we get this up and runnin, you better come on in for a drink! ON ME!!! NO, AS MUCH AS YOU'D LIKE :D
