Hey, it's Amstelhammer, hic, checking in with a question. 
Does anyone know how/if two old folks could come by tickets?
We're now like, seriously considering the possibilities, even though it's madness considering our musical agenda that week.
Still, such an opportunity, eh? Hic.

Not yet sold out. Hope you can make it. I can help with airport transport if needed.

Hey, hope you can make it! Bring Andre over too, it's a Saturday! 
Sorry Duncan, no Andre, but Cathy and I will be there!
Got the tickets and airport transport sorted, now 'all' I have to do is buy plane tickets and book a hotel.
It will be good to see you and Cathy again.
Saw Oli Brown at Beaverwood yesterday - fab show with some great new songs

Time to bump this up again and remind people that the very lovely and talented Joanne Shaw Taylor will also be appearing as part of this monster line-up. 
The more I think of this the more I can't believe all this talent for only 20 quid !!!!
Yeah and you get me thrown in too

If you've booked into the Travelodge I've noticed that you can only check-in after 15:00 unless you want to pay a £10 supplement. Unfortunately, the doors at the Assembly also open at 15:00.
I've just rung the Assembly and they reckon the music won't start until "about" 16:00. They say it's "probably" all standing or standing with limited seating. So you won't be able to check-in after 15:00 at the Travelodge AND get in early if that was your plan. The Assembly ticket says no passouts so you can't go off and check-in during an interval either.
I booked a 3 bed room at the Travelodge, but one can't make it, so anyone interested???? - only £10!!!!

The good news is that you get to share with me and Eldo!
I'm starting to make my plans for Leamington as I'm off to Amsterdam for Gov't Mule next week and only have one day's turnaround before I set off again for the Blues Assembly.
A quick look at the facilities at the Assembly
http://www.leamingtonassembly.com/aboutvenue.aspx
shows a number of bars but no catering as far as I can tell.
Is this right? There's no passouts so what are people's plans for eating? It's a long time between 3pm and the final encore.
Maybe "Tammy Wynette's pink gypsy caravan" will be running a barbecue?
Maybe Tripsy will be serving tea and scones between bands??? - I've heard its her speciality!!!
I'm sure you're a dab hand in the kitchen Eldo maybe you could knock us up some sandwiches

Errr..... I don't think so Eldo 
I've just been looking at their website too and noticed that there is no catering......maybe we could all hit the local curry house when they chuck us out!
Also I rang to ask about checking in earlier than 3pm and was told.....that's fine....you can check in after 12 noon .....for an extra tenner! .....Errrr....I don't think so.
But you can check in by phone after 3pm and then just pick up your key from the desk when you get there after the show.
Tripsy
George, when do you and Cathy get to the UK next weekend, and how will you get to Leamington?
Thought it best to reply here rather than in the birthday topic, Duncan.
We're being picked up from Brum airport by Curryman, who will also deliver us to the venue. Still have to sort a room, though. The Travelodge is full.
Come on, they can't have a show that lasts, what, 6-8 hours and have no food available?? AND not let people out? No way. Can someone maybe phone the venue and clear this up?

Eldo (Simon)'s friend is no longer coming, so there is one spare bed at the Travelodge, I guess it's probably a single though, anyone else have a spare place?
I assume there must be some kind of passout or will the smokers have to do with out. Maybe we'll have to call pizzas to the venue!
I have a contact for the venue, i could email them on Monday (it's on my work email)
By the way I retitled the thread
If its a bed bed and not the put me up, ill take it for Virgil as he is in with us. I also 2 tickets (or 3, if no press pass).
