Hiyas!

Any iorr members / contributors etc. going on the 29th?

Just be gd to have a beer or three with any that will be there.

Dean.

i'll be there.

Cool Roadster - where will your watering hole be?

i don't know nothing yet just the hotel i'm staying

The St. Davids Hotel and Spa.

ok i'm travelling Tuesday and staying at the Future Inn Hotel on Cardiff Bay - The Prince Of Wales is normally a good meet up point for starters - i'm sure there will be Stones Fan get togethers at other places too.

I will certainly be there. It'll make a pleasant change for me to see the Stones and have no flights or hotels to sort out. Hasn't happened for 16 years!!

v true WS - do you know of secret hideaways for having a drinkypoo? lol

Plenty of good pubs in Cardiff city centre. And the beauty is that the Millennium Stadium is slap bang in the middle of the city, so can enjoy a few pints without getting too stressed about travelling out to the gig

thanks WS - yes i've been to Cardiff a few times - that's y i chose to see the stones there - it's gonna be awasome i know )

Well don't forget the Yard Bar where we will have Stones music.

They plan to house us up stairs.

Martin.

i'll be there- looking forward to it

here's a 'Cardiff Lowdown' thread from a while ago, regarding bars, The Stadium etc

Yes it is expensive - my Hotel (Twin Room with Breakfast - for free lol) cost £98 - my ticket cost £60 - I was on the Tickemaster webby as soon as trading started - I am A3 - Pitch - Row 8 Seat 17 - is that anywhere near the stage (I presume Ronnies side) - I'd appreciate anyone with greater knowledge informing me - I am aware of this FOS business so will be very far back?

But the real beauty is - I am travelling from Southend On Sea - a rail ticket to London will cost about £12 while I got a coach ticket (called Funfares) via National Express (London Victoria to Cardiff and return the next day) for wait for it: £2.00 )

Anyway enough of my ramblings - cya all there i hope.

Dean.

Dean.

Dean thats a brilliant price for that hotel, dont tell my mrs if we happen to bump into each other, i had also good tickets for cardiff until my computer decided to crash at that precise time so settled for the cheap tickets as i am going to twickenham on the 22/8 and have got £60 in A block and at the time booked for to paris but obviously that got cancelled. I have paid loads for the hotel and no breakfast!!! you just ruined my weeekend!

>> I'd appreciate anyone with greater knowledge informing me <<

the floorplans for all the UK gigs are on the TM UK site:
[www.ticketmaster.co.uk]
just click the venue you're interested in and on the next page there's a "view a seating chart" button
where you select the Rolling Stones, et voila
