Show time in NYC

Post Thu Feb 02, 2006 10:16 pm

Hello all. Just wondering if there's any indication of when the band will take the stage at the Nokia on the 16th. The only flight I could get is coming in from Montreal and scheduled to land at about 3 pm. I'm not that familiar with NYC and would like to know (if everything goes according to schedule) whether I've got time to get to my Times Sq. hotel and then out for a quick session at a pub. Suggestions for pub destinations very welcome.

I don't yet know what time is Showtime but it's unlikely to be before 9 pm. Allow about an hour to get through immigration/baggage claim and another hour to get into Manhattan. You'll be fine. When I travel by Virgin Atlantic from London I arrive at JFK at 4.40 pm and by 8pm I'm checked into my hotel and sitting in a Broadway theatre.

This once again demonstrates two of the great things about this forum. Good information and communication with the band.

virgin atlantic is a great airline. they fed me to death when i went to london in december, and loved the little tv screens behind the seats.

flight attendants weren't bad to look at either, at least on my flight :P
