Hi. Long time reader, first time poster.

I bought a ticket, my first since the NEC in 92. :-)

What time is the show likely to finish at? I'm coming down from Peterborough and need to decide whether to try to get an early train or a late room.

I'm tempted to buy a ticket and go there as my last Sisters gig in London was more than 20 years ago (the `85 RAH show, including encore!), any suggestions where to stay near the venue?

I will be there.
My first Sisters Gig since 2000 at Rock City when I thought they were DIRE :roll:
I then said I wouldn't go and see them again until they released a new Album.
My 'strike' has held for 9 years ... not sure exactly why I'm going this time but SOMETHING made me want to :eek:
The day will doubtless involve LOTS of vodka and LOTS of dry ice :D
I will try to get to any Meet-Up at Bull 7 Gate :D
It's A Black Planet ....

I disagree- I've heard some great bootlegs from the US tour, ie Buffalo, New Haven and Cleveland. Even Richmond sounded okay considering the gigs problems. I'm not expecting this gig to be life-changing but my wife dislikes Sisters and I expect her to have a little respect once she gets over the inevitable asthma attack :oops: :lol:

The voice may not be as good as it was but Dr Avalanche remains anm awesome spectacle :notworthy: :innocent:
