If anyone fancies a cut-price standing ticket please drop me an email ASAP.
Will still see folk at Wolves where I hope the pop group can pull their fingers out and attempt to rekindle the magic.
dammit Fradders...are you avoiding me???
Please don't tell me you're coming all this way and not trekking up north for the Wolves show, Jeff???!!!??

well, if I have to go to Wolverhampton to cop a feel off of ya, I reckon I'm in...
just don't anybody invite that Rocket Mick character, he's fcuking NUTS!!!
If it's Wembley then The Green Man is easy to find.

Only five minutes walk from the stations. Close to the venue.

This is true. Still can't afford it, though!
If I were 100% sure of my chances, I'd say come over I'll give you mine and use the guest list opportunity.
But seeing the last 2 times I got photo passes for people they didn't get it (Hibster in Spain and Gary at Bournemouth)... I'm not sure I'd take that risk and I'm happy I bought a ticket.. :(
Needless to say, find a place where a canadian tourist won't get lost on its way there ![]()
Gee, hopefully 3 days will help me to find my way in London ![]()
for me, the best option would be a wembley meet-up. even though it's not the quality area to which we're used (as if that's going to matter!) - I've taken the day off work and I'll be coming from the other end of the met or silverlink line (and I don't fancy making the journey to the venue, invariably at the last minute and with a full bladder from london).
yes, the word lightweight doesn't even begin to describe my constitution....

Errrrrm cos they're 300 odd miles away and don't like NO.

I thought you had loads of mates here, Steveo?

Novelty idea, but it could work!

I thought the question of where our mates are going to be drinking hadn't been resolved yet. Am I missing something? Is the london order settled on a more central venue?

A few, and I probably WILL be where they are.
(assuming I'm not in my hotel playing hermit again
)
Just for shits and giggles, lets meet up at Chandos again....
maybe I won't tumble down the stairs this time!!!

As long as people understand I'm terrible with name and faces (especially when I'll meet so many people at the same time), I'm fine.
Of course, no problem with Al and Johnny Giles, saw them enough ;)
lets go for the green man...more drinking time available as short stumble to the arena,,,no pissing around with the tubes......
always been a bit nervous about the meet ups as a lot of friends on the board seem to know each other really well
I missed the meet up at TGI's in new york as with friends( i had a bloc party t shirt on and was at the aftershow at Hiro so probably saw some of you!!!) and got to hyde park too late.
went to the apollo with a mate and bournemouth but again not in time for meet up.
will be getting to wembley and wolves early so hope to meet up with some of you craaaazzzyyy people.

(quoted from Chris Nash's post earlier).
Hello mate! I tried texting you the other day. Where and when do you want to meet for Wem-ber-ley? Give me a shout when you can and we'll sort it. The Green Man looks ok. Weird seeing a country-looking pub in a dull northwest London surburban setting!
Cheers and to everyone that's going on Friday: having some!
Al
Ps Live request? Mmmm Sooner Than You Think or Face Up would be cool.
Only two options near Wembley Arena...
The Torch or The Green Man.
The Torch is near a Metropolitan Line station... i.e. Wembley Park so easier if you're coming from Baker Street. Not a bad pre-gig pub, big enough and only a few mins walk to the Arena.

Cheers Mike
This thread reminds me of that Monty Python line ...
"Judean Peoples Front? Fuck off! We're the Peoples Front of Judea!!"
Well, at least it was topical in London at the moment... :bag:
Spliters!
"Are there any women here today?".

Did you write that in a Chumley-Warner-Pathe-News accent?
Cos I sure as hell read it in one.

I was looking at it in a mass entertainment Mancunian beat combo sort-of way! One would hope they will be raising a hullabaloo for the young folk come Friday evening.
Arriving in the smoke at about 3-ish so up for a snifter there first.
Will try the Globe at Baker Street first - hope some of you will be there.
Otherwise concensus seems to be Green Man at Wembo.
Anyone got a map for Station-pub-gig thing.

Don't know why Green Man's been suggested. Think Mike's already said you have to walk PAST the venue from the tube to get to it. Torch (or whatever it's called) is on the way, no?
