Which gig/s are you going to?

Postby justthejob on Mon Mar 02, 2009 10:09 pm

Have we booked our tickets for Craig and Charlie's 09 tour of UK? Which gig/s are you going to? Does anyone know what the venues are like in Leeds and Sheffield! If I book "standing" will I be reasonably close to the stage? :P

Dont know about Leeds and Sheffield are like, but in my experience, you dont have to be there too in advance to be right up the front. turn up, 40mins to an hour before and you'll get right up to the front.

Anyway I'm going to Edin Usher Hall on the 10th and Glasgow SECC on the 13th.

Just kidding of course... at least I'll have your detailed reviews.

They might go down Spain way later on. If not you could do the age old trick of pulling a sickie.

Thanks for your ideas Livi :twisted:

I hope they come to continental Europe including Spain next year, but there are three reasons why I'd like to see them this year...

1) Don't know what my circumstances will be in 2010
2) I'd like to see them on home turf and also tour Scotland
3) WHO CAN WAIT?

Let's see, I'll manage, I don't give up so easily :)

Well if you're ever in my neck of the woods you're more than welcome, hope you get your wish, I've been a fan for donkeys years but due to a variety of reasons, cash (or lack of) , having babies, illnesses etc etc, I only got to my first gig in 2007! It was worth the wait as you can imagine. Theres a saying, "All good things come to he/she who waits" :) :) :)

It'll be Leeds at least, and maybe Sheffield too.

I have to thank Angie for having a spare ticket for me..., and her hubby for not being a Procs fan :lol: And you all for encouraging me. :)

This year, I'm gonna take a jet plane there, no matter what it takes.
... For the music's sake !!
