Just wondered how the demographics of this site break down? Do we have more Norverners prepared to head south, more Southerners prepared to head North, what? Which is gonna big the bigger of the two days out for NOOLers?!

Both (I am in no-man's land). Does going to see Hooky in Aberdeen count as a half-mark?

Both - live down sarf, but Manc will be the party gig - i.e. not too much rushing around, as flying up in the morning of the gig, and back the next afternoon = plenty of time in pub! :beer: ! :)

But it'll be a mad dash darn sarf for Brixton so not much party time.

Will make up for it in manc though.

None obviously.

My vacation budget for this year is pretty done unfortunatly... I was planning to do the trip NEXT YEAR, and they surprise me with the "autumn tour" they were supposed to do at the first time :skeptic:

Just Brixton - soft southern shandy drinking shite that I am. Work commitments meant I had to pass up Ally Pally.

Only MANCHESTER cos i am a PEASANT.Still it could be worse i suppose.:cry: But really i should have stolen even more money from my son to get to BRIXTON.But 6 years of BLAGGING and trying to keep a mortgage with LITTLE work is getting harder. Still i don't want to be too rash and get a FULL-TIME J.O.B. now!:hat:

Just Manchester for me I'm afraid. I'm a bit too cash-strapped at the moment to do London as well but the Mancland one should be something special I reckon. I've always wanted to see them do a homecoming gig and still regret missing the Apollo '98 show.

If they decide to do any gigs north of Manchester I'd be up for those as well, as in Glasgow or maybe even Edinburgh although there aren't that many suitable venues there. When was the last time New Order played Edinburgh anyway? I assume it would've been in the 80s and at the Playhouse Theatre which rather sadly has stopped putting on bands and is the home of shite Abba-esque musicals these days...

Manchester Only for me - couldn't get away from the kids long enough for Brixton (Brixton HAS to involve a 5-day session with the family i have over there - & i'm too old for that shit!:evil4: )

Found out way too late that I could have done ally pally - i'm sure i'll enjoy watching it on tv just as much:banghead:

Good news / bad news

A paraffin budgie from the sky has rescued me. I SHOULD still be home by thursday. I have tickets in the post to me as I took the liberty of getting someone to book standing tickets for me at the time.

My office won't commit to me being home on Monday now!

However it now looks like both for me now too.....

Colin, I'll email you as I'm curious.......do you fly helicopters.......?! Or do you have experience in being 'ran off' of a rig!!

Manchester only, unfortunately. But I'm sure I'll still feel rather satisfied. :D

0 likes

Brixton only for me. Holidays are no problem, as I get 48 days a year but it's a severe lack of cash stopping me from doing both. I have to laugh at all those people complaining about the price of the tickets. You don't know how lucky youse are! Actually I would have preferred Manchester but that turned out to be much dearer than London, so London it is!
