I'll wait and see what people come up with and go along with it if I can. On two consecutive nights I'll be at gigs by the bands whose websites I run - Clearlake in my hometown (Bristol) on Friday night and then the Wildhearts thing on Saturday. But on Saturday I'm getting a train at 2.30, then I have to get to the hotel, chuck my stuff in and get back down for early doors so it's all down to whether there's still time spare!

There is one pub either side of the venue, a Walkabout and an O'Neils (I think). Both are quite spacious.

On the subject of hotels, does anyone know of any rooms going for the gig?

Well, wherever we end up, count me, the ex, my mate Mitch and his better half in.

I can't wait to meet some of you proper!

VP.

did someone mention there was a weatherspoons near to the venue?

Probably, but don't let that put you off. There'll be a few proper pubs too.

I seem to recall there's an o'neils as well in the near vicinity, could be wrong though it was about three years since i was last at that venue.

I'll be travelling up from Mrs Sarcs in Worthing that day (the darling that she is actually signed up to the board the other day to join in the abuse but wussed out at the last minute) so I'll be getting to that there pub that we decide on about four to half past and heading straight back after the gig so luckily for you lot i won't be on the loose after the show but I will before so MWAHAHAHAHAHAHHA

It's London. It won't be cheap. Instead of thinking bargain booze, think marginally less expensive pub without the atmosphere.

that's right, there's an o'neills directly next to the venue, and a walkabout on the right. the walkabout is massive but the o'neills not so much. both pubs get busy pre-show. the wetherspoons is in the shopping mall on the other side of the bush green, near to the station (the central line one that is closed). it's like any wetherspoons, it's spacious and cheap.

is there a voting function on this forum?

Fucksticks, thats why the preview function is available.

Obviously I meant to say "I'll be travelling up FROM Mrs Sarcs that day!"

Hope she doesnt read this.

Fortunately, that's what you did say. Nige's being a naughty boy and fiddling with your entry.
