    "... and if you see someone next to you throw avocados on stage you have my personal permission to beat the fucking holy living shit out of them... me and jeff are going to the front gate, and when you exit we are gonna beat the shit out of every person here who smells of guacamole... fuckers!
    ahh, that felt good...
    this is a new song... but you've probably all heard it... greedy bastards...
    so just sing along...
    BIG MAN STANDS BEHIND AN OPEN DOOOOOOOR..."

    Some days you wake up and sit on a park bench next to an eighty year old Russian architect, and some days you don't. I think this is my new life philosophy.

    i have a feeling that there won't be an official bootleg of this show...
    so i'd really like to know if there are any tapers amongst our little meet-up crew...

    i know, we discussed the digicam and recording gear issue before and came to no real conclusion except that kilt smuggling is always an option :D
    but is anyone actually taking a recorder?

    hey heather,
    i know that off-topic chatter is really frowned upon in this thread (yeah, right :rolleyes: )
    but there's something i stumbled upon while adding all the meet-up lads and ladies to my buddy list...
    did you know that you share a birthday with such talented people as albert schweitzer, dave grohl, steven soderbergh and, well, ll cool j...
    how do i know? well, it's my birthday too :D

    haha, sorry for that, just needed to share...

    back to topic...

    Is anyone staying at the Carr-Saunders Hall hostel/halls of residence after the Astoria gig? I know they only have one room left now so guessed it might be full of Pearl Jam fans ....

    haha, this thread is getting kinda huge and confusing, isn't it?

    Yep it certainly is - I was talking with some of the others yesterday about a few folk giving their numbers out to help co-ordinate etc, and like most things it's all got lost in the thread. I think it may be a good idea for us to use the blog for all absolute meeting information - who, what, where and how. Here we can also create the 'list' of people coming to the george, along with the existing list of people with tickets?

    What do people think? Shall I get on the case???

    I can't see age restrictions being a problem pre gig... I'm not sure that she'll get into bars or clubs afterwards though...

    Hey!

    I'm around (as I live in London) and was chatting to some of the other guys about a wednesday night drink...

    ... there's nothing set in stone yet - I don't mind organising something though!

    I'll just leave her in the street afterwards!!!!! Mind not that she looks 16 - bitch has a figure to die for, is 2 inches taller than me and an attitude worse than any 21 year old!!!! I hate being the (much) older sister!!!!

    Personally, I don't wanna be drinking on Wednesday and wake hungover Thursday. I wanna have my sh1t together for Thursday evening. By the way, does anyone know if we are allowed to take digital cameras in??

    seriously, is there anything you don't do?
    you just joined here and you're already everybody's hero...

    i think it's a good idea... but we should keep the more personal info like phone numbers amongst us and not post them here or on the blog... maybe create a mailing list for the people going to the meet-up?

    i thought everyone knew it was The George anytime after 2pm... have things changed? :confused:
    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.
