Can't deal with early mornings *yawn*

eek, that's a bit scary. Land, recharge batteries. Good plan!

We get into Paris about the time the festival starts. That's gonna be fun.

that's cuttin it tight, no shenanigans now. Head down (excuse shite pun) straight to the show!

[thelordoflard]

yeah sound, do you know John's friend Adam? He lives in Belfast and knows the story with the pubs n shit, so lets see what happens there too.

Any idea what time you'll be arriving at? I plan on leaving Dublin early, like 11 or 12 meeting up with John and Kev in Connolly and getting the choo choo NIN train to Belfast.

Dont know Adam. We will probably drive up early enough and will probably get there by 2 or 3 methinks depending. Takes about 4-5 hours from Limerick I think

Hi All!
Good to be back to these forums, means NIN is back!
Will there be a meet up?
I'll be going to this one on my own.
Cheers!

Get into Belfast at about 15:45 - need to get to accommodation and get ready etc... then decide on a meeting pub (that is not insanely wedged).

Will post where we're going on this forum.

My party shall join ye of course.
If we have problems with meeting in a bar, we can use McHughs as a back up bar (right next to the concert) https://maps.google.ie/maps?q=mchugh...gWgEMvYjDXbEHw

Well, look at that... SO AM I!

[biblo]

Looks like there'll be a fair few people travelling. Verrrry good. I'll feel less like a filthy southerner!

[chicken-royal]

It was weird booking the tickets and travel arrangements knowing none of my mates are coming and I'll have a lot of time to kill.

Still, it'll be totally worth it to finally see NIN and hopefully meet up with some other fans, haha.

Belsonic has started now - lots of bands I've never heard of. Drove past it yesterday. Can't wait til Weds, 4 more sleeps (2 for me cos I'm working night duty!!)

[NSFTM]

been a while since i been on here like... but NIN playing my home town , thought i'd see whats going on.
Mchughs bar used to have a.dodgy door policy, if you can be arsed with the walk, vodoo lounge and katy dalys are more 'alternative ' friendly.. or decent pints i'll probably be propping the bar in the garrick up

[thelordoflard]

I vote for decent pints! Far from concert?

Just as an FYI - there's an afterpartay thing on in Hudson's, entry is £3 with a NIN ticket, £5 without.

So Hudsons is somewhere on the street where i put the black line..... spirk doink.

[Scarlet Siren]

That's a stone throw away from the hostel some of us are staying at. I'd be up for that but I have to be on my best behaviour, my flight out of Belfast is at 07:05.... (I feel sick just thinking about that)

[Mutilated]

This event is being organised by an industrial/goth dj so should be less of the metal/rock thingy...

(that's my preference, don't know about others?!?!?!)

[Casbah]

Belsonic facebook posted some other aftershow thing at the Limelight also. I'm just gonna follow my friends on the night!

[NSFTM]

The garricks about a 10 minute walk from customs house square, proper boozer , decent beer and food and a good bottle selection. its about a 5 minute walk to Katy Dalys and the limelight

The Hudsons good as well, your a bit out of the town centre(belfast centre isn't that big) and if you don't know belfast that well , you could stray in the wrong direction and end up in a couple of bars/ areas that can be a bit unsavory

[godflesh]
