Meeting beforehand on 21st if you're going alone?

As per previous posts, I'll be going it alone to the mainshow on Fri 21st (long story, but a break-up has meant sacrificing my decent lower tier seats for a single upper tier one AND giving up my ticket to the aftershow - if you can help with the latter, please orgnote me!)

But enough moping - who else is going on their own on Friday and would like to meet beforehand for a drink? At least then we won't feel like we're spending One Nite Alone!

It will be busy, but suggest meeting inside Slug & Lettuce bar inside the O2 at 7pm. If it's really busy, we'll need to find a way of recognising each other (don't seem to be able to get a photo up on here) so I'll work out what I'm wearing and post it here in a couple of days time. Other ideas welcomed...

In the meantime, roll call please:

if you want to get a seat anywhere on the night you'll have to get there pretty early - we were there 6ish on Sunday and everywhere was already full and queuing

Thanks for the tip - though if I can get a ticket to the aftershow, I don't mind standing in the bar!!

There's about 20 or 30 of us Orgers meeting at the Holiday Inn around 4:00 to go for a drink at the Pilot Inn (it a nice little pub very close to the Dome, in the park that leads to the front entrance)....I'm not sure about the concert itself though whether we'll be going back to the HI to get changed after having a drink and then all trekking to the Dome together.....I'll have to see what the word is.

I'm up for meeting as, for the first time, I plan to get to the venue nice and early.

I don't actually have a ticket yet but I'll be getting one come hell or high water. I'd rather not pay a tout, but I probably will if it comes to it (not on the Org!!!), so here's hoping for some last-gasp Ticketmaster action.

Hi All,

I prefer the RAAN bar for meeting up. It never gets as busy as the other places in the O2 and has a better more relaxed atmosphere.

Thoughts??

I will be in one of the Lord's stunning t-shirts smile
the guitar is the best instrument in the world!

I thought that the plan was to meet at the Holiday Inn at 4 and then go down to the Pilot Inn pub just outside of the 02????

For those who, like me, can't make The Holiday Inn, we'll meet at The Raan at 7pm.

OK - from what I've gathered it looks to be as follows:

4 p.m. at the Holiday Inn and then from there go en masse to The Pilot Inn.

For those who can't get there that early, the RAAN bar inside the 02 at 7/7.30 p.m.

And perhaps those who did make it to The Pilot Inn might make their way to the RAAN bar later to meet up with those who couldn't make it earlier.

That's my understanding and sounds like a plan!
