Good evening all! New here ... As a registered user at least.. Never got round to it! Anyway, I've got tickets to the Brixton show on the 19th and for the aftershow at Jamm. Now that the extra show has been added on the Saturday, what are the chances of the aftershow being moved to the Saturday? Or is it just a case of wait and see? Will have to beg for another night away from home if the date changes!! Thanks to all in advance.

Thinking about it, Heather. Not sure yet whether we can get there.
Likes the warm feeling but is tired of all the dehydration.

Brixton on 20th December, great, that will make it three for me this year. I am going to Bristol on 16th and having difficulty finding out if the overnight train will stop at Bristol so not sure about getting home. If anyone is driving to or near Exeter after the gig (or even Taunton cos I could defo pick up the train there) and have room for one could you please let me know. Happy to contribute to fuel costs. Thanks

I don't know for certain. of course, but I think the chances of the JAMM thing being moved are remote. It suits the band very well not to move it, as they have to get to Dublin the next day (21st). Welcome to Medusa.

Philip,
Thanks so much for your reply! I'll keep my fingers crossed just in case too...
I feel a little silly to admit that I've been grinning like a man posessed ever since receiving your response... My first ever post receives a direct reply from Mr. Chevron himself!!! Man I love this place!
Thankyou again and here's wishing you continued progress with your recovery.

Yeghes da!

Just booked two tickets for Brixton on the 20th. :D

Off to Lime Street tomorrow to book train tickets, all I need now is a decent hotel not too far away, can anyone recommend one?

No need to go to Lime Street, just booked my train tickets online, £82.60 return and that's with insurance. :D

Julie, you will be able to get back to Exeter after the show. The 23:36 train from Bristol is the latest one, it's about a 15-20 minute walk/5 minute cab ride from the venue to the station. Saw Rancid there last Tuesday and managed to get the train home... be warned though, it takes forever!

Walshy ya numpty what's the story? Are you going to all 3 nights? Just had a butchers at Ticketmaster and it looks like the Friday might be sold out? Think the family (or at least mam and da) want to go, so herself is gonna get tickets for the Sat night. I wouldn't mine one of the other nights either though, even if I don't get a ticket I'll probably come down to the Canterbury anyway for the craic.

What are the Swedish squad doing this year (mats, Johan etc)? Would like to meet you guys again so lettuce know which dates you'll be attending :)

Hi TOSCS

We´re coming for all three and it would be great to see you again at The Canterbury Arms. I´ll try to stay awake this time if there´s an afterparty at Walshy´s :wink:
