I'm not being made redundant but am having to relocate to Sunderland in the next few months to avoid it...

Yes, £37,000 is not 'poverty pay' and a 1.3% rise is a heck of a lot better than a lot of people are being given at the moment.... They should consider themselves lucky. There are people in the world that cannot afford to feed themselves every day! :(

Elbow - One Day Like This I have fond memories of getting sunburnt at T in the Park watching them :D

Elbow!!!!! Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!! :) :) :)

Wish Ash were supporting on other concerts!!! Amazing!!!!!!!!

Live radio starts at 9pm? I hope someone will record and put up a FLAC copy...

I am ok to go to Paris so will try to locate and buy a ticket when I next get paid :confused:

Trains (ie East Coast) will be running as normal, the strike is on the Metro (light rail), so you can still get the train into Sunderland Central and it's not too bad a walk from there, across the bridge. I believe you'd change at Newcastle anyway so shouldn't be much extra hassle depending where you're staying overnight. I was just planning to drive back up to Fife.

Is that to Newcastle? From what I read of it, they may run some trains on the day and will publish more details tomorrow. However, I suspect the same as above, it will be total chaos :confused:

Sorry, I was meaning about the news above that the metro will not be running that day. There is always a chance that the strike will be called off I guess.

Good luck getting the metro......

So where to park then? Is there all-day parking available anywhere?

Sorry but due to work I can't make it to London now, totally gutted :( :(

I will find out tomorrow of I can get the Monday off work, and if so I will get straight onto getting a ticket....

I paid for seats cos there was no standing left, not happy!!! Can't cancel, not allowed to sell.... They have you over a barrell :(

I think I am sorted for Sunderland thanks to ichrek :)

I don't think you will but I have four seats for tier 3 on Sunday and wouldn't mind swapping for Saturday...

WOW!!!!! :cool: :D :o :D C'est excellente!!!!

Thanks, saw them online yesterday but didn't have my credit card out with me, lesson learnt!! Standing is sold out again :(

On the lookout for a standing ticket..... anyone got one they want to get rid of, send me a message!!

I sooooo wish that I could have made it there, but my travel plans for the rest of the week didn't allow it :( Hope everyone going has a great time, cold and raining or not :D

No problem, I just find it very strange!

Also, I have 4 seated tickets on 3rd level for Manchester on 10th June, if there is someone out there who would like to swap for GA or for GA on the 9th, please let me know :) (I have been told that I will get these sent to me starting this week.......)

Does anyone have a standing ticket for Sunderland? I am also interested in a standing ticket for the Emirates for 2nd and/or 4th June, anyone still got one available?? Any help would be appreciated :) I can pay immediately!!! Especially desperate for Sunderland.......!

But that makes NO sense.... have you any idea how much work goes into putting the show on? Why would they put it up, have a show, take it down, have a show somewhere else, come back, put it all back up, have another show and take it all down again? :confused:
