I am, but not by plane I'm afraid!
It's London Waterloo to Paris Gare du Nord by Eurostar for me and my friends.

Actually I'll arrive in Paris a couple of days before the concert to see some friends. You should really consider going by air. It's 40 minutes by air from Stansted. I don't like long car or train rides so that's the best for me

I think if you act now you could get a seat for about 40 pounds
Bus fare from Charles de galle to the centre of paris is about 8 euros OR if you take the subway it's 6 euros( I think) can't help you with hotel accomodations though.......lol. I have a correction. the plane leaves from London Luton not Stansted

We booked up as soon as we heard about the gig, and managed to get "youth" tickets, but according to my friend Elyse who booked the tickets there's only a limited number of youth tickets available per journey. They cost £59 return, but we're travelling at un-Godly hours of the morning as well!!

Ah - they might ask you for some form of ID...

As well as having the whole day in the city before the gig, we're going to be in Paris from whenever the concert ends until about 5am local time (because our train home leaves at about 6am), so we'll definitely need somewhere to head for!
