Philip, any insight on whether they'll be taking out the seats?


I'll ask.


I'm told that the stalls level floor at the Paris Olympia will be substantially, if not entirely, without seating.


Hi !

Please somebody help me out...

I bought tickets for the "Orchestre"...will this be the area where there are no seats ? So like the Olympia Theatre in Dublin ?

I got indescribably excited when the pre-publicity before the release of the list of names for this year's Cambridge Folk Festival went on about "legendary Irish band celebrating their anniversary with a return visit to Cambridge after many years". Turned out to be feckin Clannad. :(
Likes the warm feeling but is tired of all the dehydration.

Does anyone know how to get in touch with the people who are in charge of booking for the band? I have a dream! Which is to get Pogues to play in Copenhagen, and I've talked to a great concert venue there who would like to hear from their booking manager. Love & thanks

Cheers, a nice size then, i am trying to convince Mrs Rum this is not going to be that costly, i think Stockton may win that battle though

Thanks for clearing that up. :) the translations on the L'Olympia site are a bit misleading... ;)

Cheers very much for the booking manager info, Mr. Chevron. It might be a long shot, but you never know. Definitely worth a try! Love & thanks

I have booked my tickets for the Olympia. While I was on their website I noticed that Leonard Cohen is playing three nights there a couple of weeks later, so I booked a couple of tickets for his gig too, September looks like being a very expensive month for me.
