Is the Academy the same place as the Ritz or a different venue?

A maybe at this point, as I've already committed to both Roundhouse dates, Nottingham and Glasgow.
Pro: If I do this Glasgow will be my 40th Sisters gig.
Con: I'm really not sure my body could handle the level of abuse required for this.

Additional bonus - at least it's not the Albert Hall - security probably have my photo. :wink: :lol:

If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Tickets arrived in the post today :) nothing fancy sadly, those KK Steel Mill tix are the biz. Still, physical tkts in the hand beats the Roundhouse's digital BS every time. Still haven't figured out how to upload those to a nokia c1.

Dave, where did you order the tickets from?
Now that the Glasgow date has changed I'm thinking of going to Manchester. Would be nice to get an actual ticket!!
I have seen The Sisters at The Paradiso. I will die happy
With massive thanks to Ruffers for his company and help.

I was avoiding this tour due to financial reasons, but after reading about all the 'fun' at the Roundhouse I figure I have to see for myself what happens at Manchester.
Just bought 'real' tickets from the Academy, and booked the hotel. Count me in! :D

Received my ticket in the post yesterday! Alright, it's only a piece of paper, but so much nicer than an electronic notification. :D

'fraid I'm out for this one - too much hanging around between gigs when I'll have already been out for the entire weekend.
If anyone is still hitting Glasgow on the Wednesday I'd recommend Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons at the Garage as your pre Sisters warm up.
