For all you Harvey Milk fans, here's an interesting set of Leonard Cohen covers by frontman Creston Spiers:

Anyone actually recieved their tickets yet?

Eh just to let ye know if you bought tickets off TicketWeb they rarely ever manage to deliver tickets to Ireland. My tickets from them last year never arrived at all. I'm picking them up at the box office this year.

 

[cesspooldublin]

fuuuck.So what did you do last year?

 

[I Bleed Black]

Two years ago our tickets didn't arrive either so we just picked them up at the door.

 

[Gambra]

Myself, righteous harmony & tombstone are staying here. Nice..

 

[tombstome]

sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!
great job Gambra

 

[Gambra]

fuuuck.So what did you do last year?

I emailed the ticket sellers to say they hadn't turned up (with about two days to go) and they told me to do box office collection.

Just around the corner (closer to the place than the Bullring). You'll need either 2 or 4 more people to share with though. Map of the exact position is here: http://www.staybirmingham.com/print-apartment-arc.php

The Custard Factory is on Gibb St (beside where it says Deritend)

 

[Grame]

Heading over to this too, but I'm looking for a place to crash. Anyone looking to share an apartment? Gambra, what's the damage on you're place (if you don't mind me asking)?

 

[Gambra]

It's costing the 5 of us €100 each for the Friday-Monday (3 nights)

Is the factory club the stage inside the Medicine Bar? No big clashes, so i'm happy.
