[quote=day_for_night;760371]chanty, my hotel last year was nowhere close to matter. as long as you're close to a tube station, it doesn't matter (no punn intended, lol)[/quote]

I've thought about that option too, just wanted to know what Greenwich was like. I really liked Piccadilly Circus so I may go back there. It's a pipe dream right now but we'll see if I can make it happen!

Really considering coming over for this! I was studying in London in 2003 so I was in attendance at Bedrock 5. Need to talk a friend into heading over there with me.

My best friend is in London and has been hanging out there for the past 3-4 months...I have no good excuse to not go!

Re: Bedrock 11th Birthday : Matter (Saturday 17th October 2009)

Surely the difference between early bird tickets and normal tickets is at most £10?

Hmmm those look pretty good, as they're custom to your ears. Pricey, but probably worth it.

The unthinkable happened. Split up with the missus and due to having to change households I don't have money to travel this year.

Bugger.

Re: Bedrock 11th Birthday : Matter (Saturday 17th October 2009)

+1 :D

now i just need to figure out my accomodations. i may just have someone to stay with, which would save me about $700 in not having to pay for a hotel for 5 nights. fingers crossed.

Good luck. :D

The wife and I don't have that option, so we have to gladly pay for 9 nights in London. It's totally worth it though.

I remember last year they sold out pretty fast ... Got them 2 weeks after from [B]ticket-text[/B] so I wouldn't worry too much

I feel it is my duty as a southern softie to educate you northern monkeys whenever possible. So fyi, 'cannie' is not actually a word :p

Just found out that Andy Newland and Digweed are playing in Bangkok in Sept so I feel slightly better about missing my first Bedrock for 7 years, but not that much better :( Literallly cant believe he is doing classics again :evil: There is still a tiny glimmer of hope that I will be able to make it (or it will be cancelled mwahaha) but its highly unlikely..

#1249274Post 78 of 401

Re: Bedrock 11th Birthday : Matter (Saturday 17th October 2009)

Bangkok in September sounds rather nice .. .far more exotic than Greenwich !

Re: Bedrock 11th Birthday : Matter (Saturday 17th October 2009)

^^ no prob Andy .. it looks like you're having a great time and that things have worked out.

Bedrock aside, are you happy with the move ? What do you miss about the UK ?
