Two questions for the wise and the wonderful out there.
Does anyone know what the policy at the Assembly is towards cameras/photography?
Also, while I have your partial attention, merchandise wise, will there be any helpful/naughty folks around with CD's or DVD's available for purchase.
Thanks for any help you can give.
7 DAYS AND 3 HOURS TO GO, not that I'm counting

I've been there a few times and the security on the door seem fairly relaxed. I've not been searched.

Still trying to get my head around the whole weeding thing, would ideally like more recent bits and bobs, thanks for the VERY quick response. Also, I thought it might be nice if I was on here for a while before asking for things, good manners and all that.

Well if there's anything in the weeding section with my name on it I'll be more than happy to do you a copy. I'll even hand deliver it to you in the pub before the gig. How's that for service? :lol:

Just make sure you read this first. :wink:

Try the sharing section as well,if you can use megaupload,and I can,so it really can't be difficult,you could have loads of stuff on your pc and blasting out the speakers within an hour.

Finally arrived today.Chuff me I was starting to get nervous.Rang the Assembly box office on Saturday and explained that my tickets hadn't arrived yet,chap said he'd ring me back.Twenty minutes later he called and said "The reason you haven't received your tickets is that they haven't been despatched yet" I said that was fine,but that I was only ringing because the gig was NEXT BLOODY WEEK!!!!!
If I hadn't rung,would they have ever come?

P.S. It's my birthday today :D , 39 :urff:
Ah,I believe this is my department gentleman,I'll take it from here...
last year at the Leeds gig I spent about a hundred quid on "merch" but that included four or five t shirts and a hoody.
T shirts will be £18-20 Hoody's £35-40 scarves £6ish
There will be probably be a tour shirt for the summer dates,and maybe some of the lyric shirts from last year,and anything else they have left over from previous tours.





Oh,and happy birthday!

Hope they have XXL or XXXL for us deserning stocky tall old blokes :lol:

I guess there's the White Horse?

But yeah, failing that Robins Well would do I guess. ;D
For a beer garden if weather is good but in the opposite direction Tiller Pin !

But your out on a limb a bit then as there is nothing else other than McDonalds next door and the Moorings over the road.

Enjoy the gig everyone and I do hope you get to hear Far Parade so we can hear views on it (You know what I mean).

I'll have to wait until a recording of the gig becomes available (hopefully).
And I ride down the Highway 101
By the side of the ocean, headed for Sunset

You'll have to pay for parking in any town centre areas. If you drive out of town a bit you won't. Best find a side street at the bottom end of town - down the main street all the way to the bottom, through the traffic lights at the very bottom and then turn left and look for somewhere down there.

Hope that helps. :D
