Wertcher - Any English speaking ORGers fancy meeting up in Leuven on the 09/10?

New to Prince concerts and i'm quite untravelled lol. If anybody fancies meeting up before or to go to the concert together let me know. Have a gold circle tix and would be great to meet up with some fellow prince fans.

I'm going solo too. Getting the 6.30 am eurostar I think.

Happy to meet up in Leuven - but don't plan on going to the venue (wherever it is) till af least entry time - would rather look around a place I'll never go to again / have a beer or two than queue up for hours getting two rows ahead of where I can getting there at a normal time.

Have GC ticket too.

All right Jethrouk n Mirabelle! Save some dancing space for me up there in the circle! And Heidi, does your sister speak 한국말 I can use the practice smile

I am getting more and more excited. The people going with me are not really fans. They just think it will be cool... So it'll be nice to really meet up with some true fans!

So, does anyone have knowledge of the area?

Shall we meet in a big open area with parking (I'm driving) and a view or a small discreet cafe somewhere?

What time and... um... what else. IDK. I am just really stoked. So, thoughts?

I suggest you all google Leuven the google map shows an area, not sure if it's a square, but there's around a dozen or so eateries surrounding it.

Basically it's west of St Peters - a church in the middle of the place. (So that's your landmark).

I suppose Nosh Coffee n Bagel bar is as good a choice as any as a meeting point. (Drivers can get a drink).

It's on Namsestraat.

Look out for a red beard (not me btw).

Meet at the station, that's more easy... lol

There are bars on the square in front of the railway station. After that, hit the town centre: Oude Markt (which is just behind the Saint Pieters church you mention, it's straight ahead from the railway station through the Bondgenotenlaan, a 10 minute walk).

The Oude Markt/Old Market is sometimes called the "longest bar counter of Europe" as it's one bar beside the next. It's a student town...

Pointless saying meet at the station everyone will be landing at different times.

Best to head to that square mentioned above and pick a place to congrigate.

OR pick a place by the station if there's enough decent choice.
