Dead Can Dance Tour 2005

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

*trembling lower lip* Scotland...? Lisa? Brendan? You forget about us? :cry:

I guess it serves us right for having no taste in music. They'd probably be playing to me, two other people and someone's dog. :roll: I'll have to find a way to get to the Eng-er-land one.

That's outrageous. Only Apr 5, instead of facing a nice straightforward 45-minute train journey to the Barbican, I'm working in sodding Burnley. Aaaaarrrggghhhh.

With reference to other threads, this proves the existence of a malevolent guiding intelligence. I've already missed The Faint this year due to a commitment in Derby.

What's the Brussels venue like? More to the point, what's the rest of Brussels like? My only previous trip to Belgium involved sleeping on a concrete floor in the Gare du Midi, which I'd rather not repeat. Even if we did beat the Germans!

It's the old Centre for Fine Arts, hence BOZAR, abbr. for Beaux Arts (That's French, Tish! :kiss: :kiss: :kiss: :kiss: :kiss: )

I guess the concert will be in the renovated Henry de Boeufzaal picture 2-3-4-5 here clicky

Thanks, Izz, I had already decided to go there (only 5 hours by bus from Tallinn) :wink:
Medieval cathedral, by the way :wink:
(And the fact that me and my friends were forced by a Latvain girl to drink the most awful coctail on the corner by the cathedral month ago doesn't misguide me :innocent: )

Well, Brussels is still a possibility (thanks for the link Izzy - when I found the French version it was even better, but my Dutch/Flemish is a bit ropey).

Riga would be tempting, but sadly I'm busy that night as well. Pity, I can get cheap flights to Riga these days. Might be tempted by Poland as well, on a similar deal, or one of the German dates.

Do I go for a new country, and language problems, or re-visit old ground and have half a chance of being understood. Or do I give it a miss altogether? Hmmm, choices.
