Happy to meet up beforehand, and to share stories from the other Palladium shows, unless anyone is fearful of "spoilers".

One option is O'Neills on Great Marlborough Street (opposite the stage door for the Palladium). This proved a good location last night from which Verbal was able to spot Nick Lowe arriving at the Palladium. Ronan Macmanus and some of the BibleCodeSundays were also drinking there. The range of beers is not brilliant, but if warm there is seating outside.

Other West End pubs are available.

Let's go with O'Neills.

What time?

I'm not spending all afternoon drinking though - not having spent the best part of £100 on the ticket! Food and sophisticated company will be the order of the afternoon!

O'Neills is fine with me see you all there. Sadly at the moment the weather is looking that great down to around 13 degrees. Far from the lovely afternoon we have in London at present

How about from 5pm?

That's a suggestion solely on the basis that will be around the time I'm getting there.

I'm hoping Steve might make an appearance at the gig but he's welcome - as are any celebs going - to join us. I think the whip money can stretch to buying him a drink!

There is a list of people with their names on it at the Box Office. So if you want to bluff it use my name and address :lol:

Some light shed on a mystery: “Woman Makes The Man,” says EC, was “written by Lord Explainer.”

Well, speaking from way over here in NYC, and based only on the setlist, this looks to have been the best of the London shows. Yes?
