Re: Lunchtime meet up in Caen
Don't worry, Ken, it wasn't a sex change, just me taking over from Vicomtesse, as I had done the bookings ;-) Very sorry if it come across as though I thought you were challenging. Do you have tickets for the Caen concert? Sorry, challenging was maybe a poor choice of word(s) for me. If it wasn't a...

Re: Lunchtime meet up in Caen
A double room is €98 for 2 nights Flex rate (€88 for 2 nights at the Paul Doumer) prices correct at time of booking and are still available. A one night stay, bizarrely still puts the difference at €10 (€54 against €44). Plus we will need to park our car and the Ibis we reserved has private parking...

Re: Marseille, Who's going?
After the Concert I will be staying in Antibes at a timeshare for a week. Stop it! You're killing me!!! I love Antibes, and the last time I was there, I stayed on a private yacht for a week. It doesn't get any better than that! Ask me about it if we meet in Marseille. However, I am thinking that th...

Re: Lunchtime meet up in Caen
We will be staying at the Hotel Ibis in Place Courtonne, Caen Centre, (near the Port de Plaisance) about 30 minutes walk to the Zenith. Anybody else staying there? Vicomtesse Well, it so happens that I have sussed out Ibis Hotels too and found this: http://tinyurl.com/yedbcsf Looks like the Hotel I...

Re: France Tour Dream
Well, it's officially a possibility for me. I'll have more definite info within the next few days, but after some stubborn pleas about scheduling, my possible conflict should be done by either February 19-21 or 26-28. On the other hand, the fact that my anniversary is March 10th slipped my mind bef...

Re: France Tour Dream
Me! Me! I promise I'll even pack light and not bring a separate fancy dress with coordinating shoes for each show! Well, assuming a lot of things fall into place, anyway. And assuming you wouldn't mind the company of a somewhat reserved 23-year-old fifth-generation-Berkeley-native free spirit who h...

Re: France Tour Dream
How much money have you all got? Maybe I'm just doing something wrong, but I can just about afford the odd concert ticket. Also, for me, it's very much a matter of priorities. Morgan Well, it all comes down to priorities...or maybe will, desire and opportunity? Just make things happen is what I say...

France Tour Dream
I have been thinking about this for a while. How cool would it be to follow the France mini-tour in March? Especially if this is the final, last, end of tour* :-) (Cue the first The Who final world tour circa 1982 which was cool in Toronto because Joe Jackson opened, but that's another story...or as...

Re: CONCERT REPORT: Nashville, November 5
This is not the thread for this, but I vehemently disagree, so I have to respond. No way. It is H O C K E Y. The CBC produced a 10 part documentary called Hockey: A People's History.
