Anyone still loking for accomodation for the gig, we've booked a room at this place and they still have some rooms left, £89 inc breakfast and only, according to Google, 32 seconds walking to the Roundhouse.

Ah I see you already said, that'll teach me to ask questions whilst falling asleep. Seeing as Im up in Glasgow it'll probably cost me a many times that......ach it'll be worth it.

I dunno man, I reckon they've probably had a massive surge in popularity lately, what with playing sonisphere, and the whole joy division revival thing has probably caught up to not-very-related bands like the sisters by now.

Seriously though, anyone got a couple of spare tickets to sell me? Or even just one?

Also are you kidding about the window selling or not? Because if you're not I'll travel to london anyway and take my chances.

All tickets sold, as I said before Sonisphere has helped raise the band profile, a great venue has shifted more tickets and lastly it is an anniversary so some will go in the hope of something special e.g. rarely played tracks etc.

The Roundhouse is probably the best venue under 5000 capacity in London, the beer is good, plenty of bars inside, outside smoking area, easy to get to, sound is superb and it is an iconic venue. Lastly it is run as a charity so buying tickets is cheaper directly from them.

It's possible they may have closed off the seating area and just sold standing tickets. That would make it less than 3,000 capacity I think.

Anyone got a seat?
