Civic Hall, Wolverhampton 1st June 2009 with setlist

[Beej]

IT'S THE DAY BEFORE.. The day before.. The gig...

Oh.

[Bobafettish]

everyone stay safe, just a few days
God, i am hoping so much for faster...

[BranCox]

Is it too early to start queuing?

[Beej]

Nope. I'll see you there. Bring Babycham.

[BranCox]

Yay!
What time are people getting there?
I queued from 5 at Llandudno, and that was early enough to get on the barrier. Are the doors at Wolves funny or something?

[Beej]

I've never been there before but something tells me there's only one door and a couple of floors to the building?

I'll be getting off the train at just gone four, then I'm picking up the tickets and going straight there so I'll be there about 5 ish.

[BranCox]

Ok, I'll be leaving work at lunchtime and drving straight there, which should take about 4 hours, so will hopefully get there at 5 too. Unless I smash into the back of a lorry whilst trying to apply false lashes and glitter spray. In which case, tell my family to play R.P. McMurphy at my funeral, for the lolz.

Oh, and no babycham I'm afraid I'll get struck off for supplying a minor with such a foul drink. Will Vodka do instead?

[Tom]

Don't bother queuing. There are about 50 billion doors and every time I've been there they've opened them all at once, so there's just no point in queuing. Normally there are fuckloads of people queuing by one door, but if you ignore that door and stand near another one you'll probably get in quicker.

Don't quote me on any of that, though.

[BranCox]

Oh really? Thanks. So they open them all at once? Wierd. Oh god, which door to go for? Is like when you're in the supermarket, doing an indicisive little jig between two checkouts.

I would prefer no choice. One queue, one line, one door, that's all.

[Tom]

Haha. As I say, I can't guarantee 100% that they'll open them all at the same time, but when I've been to gigs there they have. I'd be gutted if you waited by a door they didn't open.

That'll do just fine.

LOLZ.


I don't know what I'm doing to be fair. I don't think many people will be there around five judging on the other gigs so if I see someone I know I'll go stand with them, but if not I suppose I'll find a small que to tag onto.

[Finn]

They open all doors at the same time. Also, you might want to take sunscreen if queuing - Monday is predicted to be the hottest day so far this year.

[Beej]

Cheers Finn. In that case I will find the smallest que / empty door and stand there. I got burnt today after standing out in th sun for about 2 hours so I'll be more careful.

Where do we go afterwards if we want to wait for the lads? *accidentaly sounds like a whore*

Thank you! I was walking around London imagining I was Richey, and he'd never have a tan, so I bought 2 little Boots spray suncream yesterday, factor Very High. I shall slap on plenty of that on Monday. Will bring the squirty suncream with me to spray on other poor sunburny souls.

[Beej]

Right, tomorow I plan to play all my Manics albums (bar KYE, LT and Lifeblood cause I don't have them yet) in order, spam Tescos with stickers and then get my stuff togeather, collect the things from my check list throughout the night like I did for Leeds Fest cause I'll be too excited to sleep.

So the countdown starts for me when I wake up tomorow.
