As you're the local connection: Any idea of a good pub for a pre- and post-gig meeting near the venue? :D

Hi dudes & dudettes

I'm brand new to the forum and I'll definitely be at the Paris gig.

To my knowledge, there isn't a whole lot of pubs near the Zenith. Nice place though. Apart from that, I do know some good and not-too-pricey places to stay - & eat & drink - in Paris. If I can be of help...

Hey doc P, you know those cheap hotels of yours in Paris might well not be enough for all those thousands of rampaging TSOM fans.
You may still need my help !

You can do that either using your camera or your scanner (though I don't know if you have either one, obviously :wink: ) and then put it somewhere on that big, scary place, called the internet and link it to here :D

It will take some time, but I'll give it a try. Or you'll have an incoming PM.

Was that yellow ticket also bought from the FNAC ? They usually go in one color only. :?:

Although I remember that a friend of mine got a special design ticket for the Wish tour of the Cure (92). A rare occurrence.

Found on the FNAC web site, about the upcoming Paris gig :

"En concert pour la première fois en France ! Groupe mythique et très influent des années 80, The Sisters Of Mercy a toujours été caractérisé par le travail sur le son et la mélodie de leurs chansons. Leurs concerts sont souvent décrits comme des "expériences", fortement marquées par la personnalité d'Andrew Eldritch, frontman charismatique. A ne pas manquer !"

It says basically that it's their first gig ever in France and that the gang rock hards. Not to be missed.
But then again we already knew. No reference to anything g***th. Good.
I'll offer a proper translation tomorrow.
See ya then.

I ordered mine from one of the clicky's in this thread and paid with my hubby's credit card :twisted:

Ticketnet technologie is on the back. The rest is in french on the front. There is a silver thingy on the front.
