Tonsu Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Does everyone think this will really finish so very late? I know the Empire has a permanent late licence, but I need to get home to Kent afterwards as I don't really have anywhere to stay in London...

bello-lo Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 well unless CP come on at 9.30 and then the killers come on at around 10.45 and only play an hour then yeah it'll be after midnight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferg987 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 is there a meet in a pub beforehand for a beer ? going on my own :( so would be nice to say hi if there's anything happening :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonsu Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Thanks a lot Ian and everyone else! I thought the Empire was only licensed till half twelve on weekdays but maybe i'm mistaken, and that's a moot point as my last train from Charing Cross leaves then anyway... So, I need to not only be feeling a bit better tomorrow and therefore fit to attend the gig, but also work out somewhere to stay afterwards. Hmmm.

mingymoo Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I wonder if Coldplay/The Killers are going to cover one of the each others songs. Coldplay's rendition of When We Were Young sounds a bit flakey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirtle03 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 That is going to be an awesome show. I'm so jealous! haha I saw The Killers on the 4th of Feb. and they were great. The only time they stumbled was when Brandon talked! lol Poor guy gets nervous. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferg987 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 covers ? that'd be fun ! killers latest record is a lot different to their last effort that's for sure ... and both their sound and their look is a lot more polished this time around spaceman is a cracker that's for sure :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe small chit chat, but the second time he was very talkative! Not nervous at all. I think he was really pumped because of the four encores. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenjie Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 HOW LATE!!!!!?? the times have just been posted on the shepherds bush empire site: (in the update ticker) http://www.o2shepherdsbushempire.co.uk/ 11.10pm coldplay, 12.20pm killers. So that's a 1am finish. (tubes close about 12.20pm) been looking at the central line all week, last tube in a wembley direction is 00:44 then its buses because of engineering works, according to tfl website.

WHOOP! :dance: Mich still on way to London, they got stuck on the M6 :( awww:shy: though I've never met any of you so You'll have to make yourselves obvious...Don't think I have the bottle to go up to randoms asking Hi are you busybeeburns :\:laugh3: if we manage to meet up with Mich, Lori & others, then he'll be the one trying to look like he's not with the squeeeeeeeeeeing girls :laugh3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonsu Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I've just had it confirmed that it may be as late as a 1:30 finish for the gig, so nightbuses look like the only way to get anywhere, and I won't be able to attend unless my London friends answer my texts asap and offer me a sofa to crash on in time for me to promise to buy the ticket i've been offered...

Just a heads up in case you dont know, Make sure you queue up and enter with whoever your buying the ticket of, as it will have his name on it. They will be checking the names on the tickets with ids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marianatsl Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 if we manage to meet up with Mich, Lori & others, then he'll be the one trying to look like he's not with the squeeeeeeeeeeing girls :laugh3: I very much want to see that... it will be hilarious to see Ian around Squeeeeing fangirls. :laugh4: Jen, you know what time you're gonna queue/meet?
