ROLL CALL FOR EARTH VS SHOW

[SteveP]

I wouldn't worry about that Wildcat, we're pretty friendly here, and once you're in the family, you're in.

I was hoping there's going to be a pre gig meet up for peeps from here, I suppose one will get sorted before the date

[Ean]

hello! i'm new to the forum, hello to everyone

Hello yerself.

can someone tell me, do forumers...

Apparently, we prefer Boarders. Actually, most of us probably still prefer LiSTEES.

...meet up to meet each other for the gig, something that a newbie can join?

That depends, are you buying?

is there a pub that everyone will meet in before the gig?

I'd have thought so - it would be rude not to, what with it being a Saturday and all.

I'm guessing you're a Londoner? Any ideas?

i have only done one post is that too cheeky?

Yes, but don't let it stop you!

Is that pub next door to Shep's Bush with the nice grub still there? Think it was an Irish bar. Did good bangers and mash.
All we really need is to nominate a pub and a secret handshake

you sound like the mafia

i always thought "Boarders" sounds like boarding school children. where's "LiSTEES" from? is that from the mailing list discussion thing? how does that even work?

are you buying?

you should be so lucky

...that pub next door...

yes, that's the o'neills practically next door to the empire. it's nice like all o'neills but it gets rammed before gigs. there's a wetherspoons in the shopping centre on the other side of the green, if you like cheap drinks and space. and there's a massive walkabout to the other side of the empire. are you getting the picture? the area is not known for it's cool bars.... but seeing as the central line station is closed, the goldhawk pub which is by goldhawk road tube station may be a good option. maybe it's a little early to be planning?

You say that like it's a bad thing?!

I always thought it made us sound like a bunch of aging skaters.

Yeah, the LiSTEE (capitalized so's we can use the little 'i' in it ) thing is from the old Yahoo group - link in my sig line.

It's quite effective, as once you've signed up, you can either post your messages online or send them via email to the group page. To read messages, you can either read them online; have all the posts arrive in your inbox as individual emails (a lot less suspicious than a website if you're doing it at work), or even get one massive daily digest with all the messages on it.

Feels a bit more like you're chatting with a bunch of mates than a message board, 'cos all the emails come with a name on them, rather than as a 'Topic Reply Notification'.

to be honest that always put me off, so i'm glad i've found this forum. oh and i added my myspace address to my profile, as it seemed more friendly, but it's set to private so feel free to add me.

It was all we had at the time, although I think its glory days are behind it now.

Fairy nuff then, consider yourself 'friended'

[colzo666]

Don't think I'll be going now.
Decided to get myself some driving lessons instead.

I am gutted I'll be missing it - but really can't afford it

[vickyp]

I always thought Borders was a book store. Sorry.

Yeah it must be O'neills I'm thinking of. It might get rammed but as long as it's rammed with WH fans that's not a problem for me. Friendliest crowd you can find yourself stuck in.
Also I think last time I was in there before a gig I was obscenely early for various reasons so it wasn't too bad for space. And by the time it was I was past caring!

Perhaps a poll would be in order, nearer the time, to decide on pubbage? It doesn't really matter where we end up as long as we're in the same one I suppose.

[husker]

Are there any WH fans going to this show from Ireland ?? I would love to head over.
Me and a mate went to the show at Shep. Bush in July 97, it was brilliant. They rocked the venue to its foundations. Still have the Anthem t shirt. Happy days!!

[Marc]

Walkabout is right next door to Shepherds Bush Empire.

[shat noir]

aye, few from Belfast goin.. and i'm sure wezwildheart and his mates should be too

[nig1012]

there's a wetherspoons in the shopping centre on the other side of the green, if you like cheap drinks and space.

now ur talking i'm a massive fan of cheap drinks

[gothbotherer]

Best place would be The Central Bar (Wetherspoons), as I'm an ale drinker!

[Andwah]

A good few of my friends and me will be Sheperds Bushing it in Septober.

I'm on the third tier or something, i'll have to take my opera bino's!

We all drink ale, see you's all there in a rowdy drunken stupor!
