Alright Peter, the KW gigs are on Thursday 18th March and Saturday 20th. There's talk of light ale's being sunk on the Friday between them but basically you could pick any of the these 3 nights. There's a few out-of-towners coming to the smoke for the weekend, Shug, Hibster, Alex and co, etc so the Friday or Saturday would be best.

Hello mark, put my name down for Friday then as i don't have tickets for krautwerk
I'm hopeful of getting us a gig for that night. I'm always hopeful, the glass is always half full.
It won't happen of course, as Jim is away that weekend.
I'm in as I've haven't met any of you lot yet..I'm also going to the early Krafwerk show at Brix
Well, I'll be at both Kraftwerk gigs, and to make the 3 days even more interesting, I'm also going to the 'secret' Hybrid live gig on the Friday - hopefully Mr Hook himself will be there too! 
l8rs,
Nick ;)

C'mon Nick, where is this [ahem]'secret'[/ahem] gig then?!

Are Known Pleasures gonna be on the same bill?
Good one Al. Nope, not with the bassist in a different country that weekend we're not ! A lot of rehearsing going on at the moment, and all everyone's patience will be rewarded eventually.
Yeah, it is a bit pricey, isn't it, however I haven't seen Hybrid live yet, and I'm loving "Morning Sci-Fi" more and more...
And, of course, hopefully the Hooky'll be there too?
l8rs,
Nick ;)
I'll be there for a jar or three - cannae fookin wait!
*Note to Pete*
Got yer CD's, sorry I'm a right Cunt - totally forgot to send that one you wanted back, I'll get cracking shortly and send something of interest as a sorry

You Know Where is looking favourite for Friday's shenanigans, especially now that Iain & Bunny are putting up ATR, John & Christine for the duration. And they happen to live next door to said pub!
Seems like I've been here befooooore. :D
The Slug and Lettuce.....not a patch on The Frech Horn and Green Man:D
Cannae wait and can already taste that first pint of lager.
Well, I won't be there on the 19th (will be at the Hybrid gig - hopefully Mr Hook will be there! ), but I will be at both Kraftwerk gigs on the Thursday and Friday (early show), so see ya all there! :)

BTW, a bunch of us from other lists (Orbital, 808) are going to attempt to meet up at the Wellington Pub (just outside Waterloo station) at around 7pm tonight - http://www.thewellington-waterloo.co.uk/index.php?location

I know the Wellington, but am drinking in the Coalhole first then heading into the venue early.
You'd better be quick with your drinks - the band are taking the stage at 8pm each night!

On the corner of Wardour - just next to Soho. Friday night is the NOOL pish up. Cannae remember what the plans for Saturday are.....but I'm guessing it will include copius amounts of alcohol.
I will be in London tomorrow afternoon.
Can Mr Jarvis please make sure the fridge is fully stocked:D
Originally posted by Badger! too lazy to get yourself to the store???
Jeff, you must remember what Shug is like in a store stocking alcohol 
"i think were gonna need another trolley guys!!" 
:D
Happy memories!
Everyone MUST know how lazy I am by now!
Jarvo bought both the Kraftwerk tickets for me, and booked me my train tickets.....I am lazy and useless;)
BOLLOX!!!! I'm in Reading for the weekend so I can't go.
Oh well... I'll have to wait for the next one.

On the other hand you seem very aware of your faults. Well two of them anyway....

So no atr at yours? 
however shug still there 
this slug of which you speak - sell cider does it? (& i dont mean strongbow - that's rank)
Originally posted by Mr Hibster So no atr at yours?
No, looks like we've got Mickey Binoche instead though!
Well, a rather entertaining evening (i'd planned to stay for a couple after work - just got in now !! )
For the trainsoppers amongst you in attendence were Big Al, Shug, ATR, Hibster, Solitude, Ness & Hubby, Midnight Blue !!!, Jonny G, re : order, ian & bunny, that couple from mcr & moi (apologies to eveyone else)
Apologies for not making the Friday piss-up - decided to try and catch Hybrid live, although Mr Hook didn't turn up - they were still very good, though!
Also, apologies for not spending too long with you guys on Thursday and Saturday at the Kraftwerk gigs - although it was good to meet up (briefly) with Al & Shugs on Saturday - god, Brixton was packed that day! :)
Hope to have another chance of a meet-up in the not-too distant future, where I'll try and be a bit more sociable! 
l8rs,
Nick ;)
One of the best weeks yet, I'd have said. From Manchester to the wee hours of Sunday morning has been pure class. Good to meet all the regular faces again, plus the re-order lads too, that Ceremony mpeg was superb (looking forward to Saturday).
Kraftwerk though, what a class act. Jaw-droppingly good.

Glowing review of said gig on c4 teletext page 354 for anyone that's interested.
