Didn't know there actually is a sunny side in Glasgow.... That was the only thing that to put me off so far. Now I'm coming....

Bring some nice Swiss choc-o-late Eva!

This thread used to be about M'era Luna as well... just look what happens when the Glasgow Contingent get in on a topic!

I will, promised - at least to the festivals. But only if you appreciate proper chocolate: some people I know don't like chocolate with nuts etc.

Let's put it this way: we're just trying to stay calm by ANY means as long as we don't know anything more about the gigs....

Too bloody right. Nutty chocolate is s**t! Talking of chocolate, I did try for the first time recently, Lindt Lindor DARK chocolate. I've never seen it in the UK and it is wonderful.

Subsitute the word most for only, and you're about right...

Glasgow has 3 cathedrals and I think also 3 necropoli. The Eastern Necropolis isn't the one we went to Eva. It's in Parkhead (the part of Glasgow where it's best not to wear blue) and not as stunning as the "real" one. I think Mr Blast probably favours St Andrew's Cathedral which, despite its name, isn't anywhere near as spectacular as Glasgow Cathedral.

Andrew, you're forgiven a lot, but let's get one thing straight:

You have no idea of proper chocolate and a peculiar taste in food anyway...

green and blacks' dark choc (70% cocoa solids) and the maya gold (similarly high cocoa % with a hint of orange).

best choc there is.

certainally gets debaser going

I really like white chocolate. Hope that doesn't make me a poof.

The whiter the better, the darker the worse.

Meanwhile, M'era Luna has been officially confirmed at http://www.thesistersofmercy.com/news/livenews.htm

Give her the milk version. The best ever.

according to www.meraluna.de, Skinny Puppy are co-headliner; but I think, we'll have to wait until tomorrow, if it's just another fools day joke

(I still don't know will I go alone from Estonia or with a couple of persons who want to see Combichrist and Klinik.)

Looking at prices just now, flights seem to be cheaper from Glasgow to Berlin than to Hanover, so...

So I suggest you Berlin
I have once traveled from Berlin to Hildesheim, so you could be sure you will not get lost with me - as I didn't get lost in 2002.
Well, there's always a possibility that you'll get lost - as it happens with me more frequently

Always yours personal Mr. Bean

Not definitely, they are playing gigs, and it did happen in 2000... Oh the glorious weekend in Dresden

Yes, long train from Berlin to Hildesheim - that I used 3 years ago and that I'm going to use again. I love German railway

Trans-Europa Express!

it is very "sterile" isn't it?

I'll actually be in Germany at the time of this festival, and am now quite tempted to go.

The official website seems a bit scary, though - do any normal -looking people actually attend? or is it always just people like this



is that a BLOKE, second from the right????!


if so, I'd best give it a miss - I'll probably just spend the whole weekend laughing in people's faces.
