Echo And The Bunnymen play Edinburgh the night before the party, if anyone is interested (?). It's on the grounds of a 17th century house (Newhailes i think it's called).

strangely, i happen to know McCulloch is a Prince fan. i might actually give their tour manager a phone, see if we can get McCulloch grooving at the Prince night!

alright man, i'm 22. i cant guarantee I'll no bore the arse off of u, but I'll at least talk to u.

im 22, and so are a few others, there are a few younger ppl too. Most are around late 20s which isnt so bad. Also, we are all totally friendly and its kinda like a family atmosphere, you wont just be left in a corner. I hope u can come! If ur having accomodation problems or travel problems we can find someone to help u out, and if u dont have any accomodation, just crash at someone elses room hehe.

Just bring ur dancin shoes lol.

its not a school disco, so no slow jams at the end of the nite






sadly


i'll second everything Unique said. i came on my own last time and had a great night. don't be afraid to start chatting, everyone is really friendly.

Thanks for adding me to the list of people coming to the party.

So, finally, I am allowed to post with my new account and reply in this topic.

Yes, I am coming to the party, from Paris (France). I am 20 years old, so, you see johng691 there is at least one person younger than you.

The party looks promising and in very good hands.

For the accomodation, here is a general website to see what hotels can be found in Edinburgh (the list is probably not complete) : http://reservations.bookhostels.com/ . About the availability and the prices given, they vary from the previous link ( http://reservations.bookhostels.com/ ) to individual websites of each hotel, so I think you should check them both.

Party time is coming !!!

i hope this isnt ageism starting here ...anyway here is a picture of me at the last edinburgh meetup....i hope this will answer your questions
...

Thanx 4 all the replies. I figure out all the people on hear must be friendly and


Unique it sounds like it will be a very good night cheers for all the detail. I was a bit worried of what to expect at first i wasn't sure what the crowd would be like. I did imagine a star wars/trek convention with loads of people dressed like klingons and wookies but prince replacing the aliens.

I reckon ill come along Bal you can add me to the list.The idea of meeting up with a few people before hand is one i like.

Next question any one know any cheap digs?

I look forward to meeting everyone.

As for the ageism thing i was just wondering. I didnt think it would of been full of o.a.p.s but on the rave dvd the crowd was just a little older than myself and i didnt want to turn up and not knwo any1. Then i would of been "Hey i'm Johng691" and every1 Would be like "who" and id reply "yeah ive only posted twice on the board". As i got the impression that it would mainly be people on the board attending.
