Damien will be performing an intimate and exclusive session as part of

thanks, hadn't seen that at all.

Daniel · 11-01-2004, 03:26 PM

just got an e-mail back from this. my name would be put on a guestlist but I'd have to arrive there early to get in. so I could travel over only not to get in...
too risky. next time Edited by: Building

mari · 11-01-2004, 03:46 PM

Dan, I've just e-mailed for tickets, how long did it take for them to get back to you?

Daniel · 11-01-2004, 03:47 PM

an hour.

mari · 11-01-2004, 03:51 PM

Oh right, keeping my fingers crossed then for at least the next hour!

Sniffer · 11-01-2004, 04:06 PM

No problem. I hadn't looked at the official site in ages and there it was.
Kinda lowkey announcement if you ask me. Could be cool though.

Nathaniel · 11-01-2004, 04:12 PM

my email got returned is it correct?

this is what I got back;
No tickets are issued - names are put on a guestlist.
This does not however guarantee entry as it will be based on a first come first in basis so I advise you arrive early.
More info to follow once you confirm your number.
sounds like a lot of effort.

mestonf · 11-01-2004, 04:20 PM

Yep i have e-mailed, who else has done this, looks like i will be getting up to london early that day!!! Anyone up for an eskimo meet up?

mestonf · 11-01-2004, 04:24 PM

since I'm not guauranteed a definate place I'm not going to travel over. no idea of what the chances could be.

mari · 11-01-2004, 04:30 PM

I can see your point, Dan, but it's not too far for me. I would soooo love to see Damien live........'tis agony, all this uncertainty!

mestonf · 11-01-2004, 04:31 PM

yeah is only 50 minute train journey for me so i shall probably be queing from about 4pm

mari · 11-01-2004, 04:33 PM

Ooh Felix! Same here approx. 50 min.train ride to central London. Don't know the venue though, do you? Edited by: mari

Nathaniel · 11-01-2004, 04:34 PM

i will be in london friday night so I may just take along a load of beer - few chairs,music and spend the day queing - not missing a chance to see damo for free

mari · 11-01-2004, 04:35 PM

Nathaniel · 11-01-2004, 04:37 PM

Felix, it was posted on Damien's website yesterday, but I didn't notice it yesterday, I must be slipping[img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]!

mestonf · 11-01-2004, 04:47 PM

ahh man i looked at the site yesterday but didn't see anything, i hope we all get to go!

Can you imagine the disappointment of queueing for hours, just to be turned away at the last minute[img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img], breaks my heart just thinking about it!

mestonf · 11-01-2004, 04:53 PM

yeah thats what worries me! What time do you think would be the best time to get there without being turned away, i'm thinking 4?

mari · 11-01-2004, 04:57 PM

Well Felix, I think my e-mail mentioned doors opening at about 6.oo p.m. So I'm not sure that arriving at 4.00 would be sufficient. I don't have any experience of this kind of set up. All the bands I have seen, I have applied for a ticket and been sent it in advance, so any advice for this one would be welcome![img]smileys/smiley5.gif[/img].

mestonf · 11-01-2004, 05:01 PM

yeah me too, well i think then 3?

mari · 11-01-2004, 05:10 PM

That sounds more likely, although who knows how many people will be prepared to wait hours and hours, just in case they get in? I think it's a case of the blind leading the blind at the moment![img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]. Anyway the earlier you get in, surely the better the view you'll get. Just imagine being really close....ooh! sorry getting carried away, now![img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img].

mestonf · 11-01-2004, 05:15 PM

yeah it is quite cool to think we could see him soon, but i think 3 sounds the best idea and f we don't get in then what the hell, sh*t happens, it will be really annoying but we can always go and get drunk somewhere in london instead to drown our sorrows!

SO who ever says they are on the guest list should let us know then if they want we can have an Eskimo Friends meet up!

Daniel · 11-02-2004, 08:03 AM
