BERGENFEST 2005 : SHANE MCGOWAN &THE POPES

About Shane & band (in Norwegian).

"Foruten Shane på vokal består The Popes av Paul McGuiness (gitar, vokal), Tom McManamon (mandolin/banjo), Bob Dowling (bass, vokal), Andy Ireland (trommer), Brian Kelly (banjo, fele)."

The names should be understandable, though :)

It seems some swedish Shane freaks are going to see the man in Bergen.

The question is: how you guys are going to travel there?

I've found out that bus is naturally the cheapest way to travel from Stockholm to Bergen, but all good money-saving tips are welcome.

Guinness is awful expensive in Norway, you know?

I see that some people here are going to this gig. Should we try to organize a pre gig party for the people on the forum? Anyone from Bergen that could recomend a good pub? It would be great to see some of the people from this forum.

Cheers

Uhm. I'm getting a bit shy as the years pass by, but if someone else organises something, I'll stop by for a pint. I have never set my foot in Bergen, so don't ask me about nice places!

But Brian Kelly is also a mighty fine banjo player and a highlight of the show

In addition to Shane The Popes consists of Paul McGuiness (guitar, vocal), Tom McManamon (mandoline/banjo), Bob Dowling (bass, vocal), Andy Ireland (drums), Brian Kelly (banjo, fiddle)."

Bergen does have an airport.

The airport is called Bergen lufthavn / Flesland.

It's operated by (I'll only list international flights):

* SAS / Braathens (from Copenhagen, London, Alicante)
* KLM (Amsterdam)
* norwegian.no (Paris, Prague, London, Dubrovnik, Nice, Malaga, Murcia(
* widerøe (Aberdeen)
* sterling.dk (Nice, Alicante, Malaga)
* Finnair (Helsinki via Stockholm)
* British Airways (Kirkwall)
* Lufthansa (Hamburg)

Or so it says on their site. No guarantees!

Sry about posting in Norwegian earlier, was in a hurry...

It's really ridiculous that one can travel to London with 1/5 of the cost of the ticket to Bergen from Finland!

Which means you have to party for me there, too. I am missing the Bergen gig. That's a fact.

Bergen is further from here than London. :evil:
