Diego_Sideburns Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 More time to prepare for the massive game on Monday, and I can still get back in time to see The Pretty Things in Derby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossrocks Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I'm in London that weekend already watching Gaslight Anthem (wahoo) but its a 2 hour+ train journey each way so not sure if I can manage it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fervid Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Makes sense to move it as the game on Easter Sunday is massive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshOWTB Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I'm in London that weekend already watching Gaslight Anthem (wahoo) but its a 2 hour+ train journey each way so not sure if I can manage it. It's a pretty easy journey direct from London Paddington. Lucky I haven't booked my train tickets yet but sure lots of people have! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossrocks Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 It's a pretty easy journey direct from London Paddington. I know but I'd only get back into London at around 8pm, then I'd need to get across to the east end in time for the gig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshgaz Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Just put Bruce springsteen on the headphones on the train and give the gig a miss!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossrocks Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Just put Bruce springsteen on the headphones on the train and give the gig a miss!! Oh I do that anyway, but I think I like Gaslight more than Bruce nowadays! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP1960 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 (edited) Don't think there's any public transport on Good Friday. Incidentally, does anyone know the last time Good Friday fell on an Easter Monday? Edited March 8, 2013 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshOWTB Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Don't think there's any public transport on Good Friday. Incidentally, does anyone know the last time Good Friday fell on an Easter Monday? There are trains from Paddington to Swindon, although all services via Reading are subject to Diversion so it takes over 2 hours instead of the usual 1 hour 20. Swindon football ground is only a 15 minute walk from the station Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Oh I do that anyway, but I think I like Gaslight more than Bruce nowadays! Don't tell my wife you like somebody more than Bruce. She'd have a hissy fit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossrocks Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Don't tell my wife you like somebody more than Bruce. She'd have a hissy fit! I'm sure when his tour comes back over here in summer he'll be the main man once again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I'm sure when his tour comes back over here in summer he'll be the main man once again! Stockholm, Padova, Wembley, Paris, Leeds. I've got a busy Summer of Bruce and associated travel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Sinnott Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Great news this. About 15 of us going down from Rifle/Blue Belle and it being moved means we can all go to my mates dads 50th on the Sat. Might even dig out the pirate suit for this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossrocks Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Stockholm, Padova, Wembley, Paris, Leeds. I've got a busy Summer of Bruce and associated travel. Not bad! Out of those, I'll be at Wembley, Paris and Leeds (bloody tough ticket that one). I resisted the urge to buy a ticket for Hard Rock Calling this morning. If Stockholm's anything like Gothenburg last summer, you're in for a treat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did 3:17 for each of Manchester, Prague and State College last year. I've got to plan how to spend four hours in Paris on the Sunday! A bigger challenge may be affording to eat in Sweden! I think the wife used O2 to get the Leeds tickets. Interesting venue that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disjointed Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Don't think there's any public transport on Good Friday. Incidentally, does anyone know the last time Good Friday fell on an Easter Monday? Don,t know what year it was but was it at Huntingdon or Uttoxeter, and no i didn,t back it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Don,t know what year it was but was it at Huntingdon or Uttoxeter, and no i didn,t back it. A horse called Good Friday ran in a race on Easter Monday 1946 and fell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
