Dutch people always have weird ideas ...

I understand we will be offering a £5 discount on the presale for Manchester in recognition of last year's below-par show.

And I'll probably miss out on it because, unless it's a Saturday when the presale is on (hardly likely), I will be working.

Yea, Yea, Yea, like having people heavily influenced by you guys join in at in the final gig, like Arvid (Greenland Whalefishers), Finny (Mahones), Erik (Finnegan's Lads), etc,
or different bands opening for you on different nights, in which case I wouldn't mind you choosing Greenland Whalefishers for the Dublin gig ...

Yep, the Academy has a lot more atmosphere than the NIA and is, on the whole, a much better place for a gig. Just a shame the wheelchair access there is crap... :roll:

If we can sort it out, it'll be Brum and/or Brixton. If not, maybe Nottingham and/or Brixton, I guess.
