Usually people meet in The Bull and Gate(next door-ish)..but Kermit has went to a lot of effort arranging upstairs in The Eddie again..there will be Sparks music playing and sparkschat as well as a warm welcome...Loads of fans will be gathering there for the pre-show meet-up.....as well as post-show...so you can share a taxi,tube or bus(or walk if you are so inclined) in company. |

We printed our tickets too... Find it a little scary, cause I'm used to recieve tickets in the mail for different concerts.
Bit if i read the last posts, it should be no problem!
We're flying tomorrowmorning with Ryanair to Stansted, and also there we had to print out the bourdingpass!Now THAT's scary
It's my first concert for the Sparks, but I'm used to stand in first line at concerts, since I have an anxiety problem....
Someone has an idea of what time to get to the Forum so I won't have to stand in the middle of a crowd???? _________________ "I got comparisons coming out my ears

SOOOOOO excited now!!
Train down to good old London at half 12.
If you see a red haired girl, welsh boy and most likely a black (correct me if i'm wrong Julie ) haired girl, all far too young to be sparks fans, with a variety of sparks related shirts on, do say hello .
Can't wait to go to the Eddie again, it's been too long! _________________ -Up Here In Heaven Without You.- |

It's a pub in Islington , the actual name is "The King Edward VI" and the address is:
25 Bromfield St, London, N1 0PZ - 020 77040745 .
This is the thread with the details on:

I'm going to both shows and can't wait! I might pop into the Eddie (if I can find it :-P) but I'm a bit on the shy side so probably not. :-S |

It's easy to find,if you start from the door of The Islington Academy,then walk to the purple-ish building you'll see on the corner opposite the little carpark...The pub has the(abbreviated) name EDVI written large..but there is absolutely no need for anyone to be shy....there is always a friendly reception...from staff,regulars and fans alike.
If it's like last time the bar upstairs won't be open so you can buy your chosen drink at the main bar before heading in the direction of the Sparks music(probably a couple of posters to act as indicators as well).
Once again a great big thanks to Kermit for organising this!!!! |

Does anyone else have these printed tickets from Ticket Master?
Are they okay?
Many thanks for any help. |
I got them as well. I never had problems before so no worries here. _________________ "Somebody's been putting pineapple juice in my pineapple juice!"
