Anyone else going???

Got my tickets just t'other day...I think it's the day before one of my finals, but there was no way I was missing it...

purchased today!

last time I went up to London for a Shellac gig (at the Scala), I ended up getting stuck at Guildford at 2am, in sub zero temperatures, waiting for the next train at 6.20am to Portsmouth.

I'll take my thermals this time round. Or at least get my travel arrangements better sorted.

Are Shellac going on before or after the signing gorilla?

indeed, plus it'd be a bollocks for me to get back from and the sound was always amazing at Scala.

Alas the gig more or less coincides with a weekend fishing trip and I may have to miss out this time.

as you kids would say

So this is the place that used to be called the Camden Palace?

I spent some of my all-time worst nights out in London there. The horrible Tuesday student night was the pits*.

*Only went there twice. It was populated by miserable drunken teenagers pretending to have fun, tourists who had wandered in without knowing better, predatory older men waiting for some girl to get too drunk to walk...and the music... it doesn't bear thinking about.

I'm hoping to go, awaiting confirmation of room and board from a mate to make it viable. Are there a lot of tickets left does anyone know - and where's the cheapest place to get 'em? - supporting act(s)?
Yes I saw Mudhoney last at the Koko - not that impressed with the place. If Shellac can get the sound anything like they did at the Scala though, I'll be blown away again..

assuming the zero that's showing just reflects their current allocation and not it being sold out, i'd recommend wegottickets for tickets, the booking fee is low and they're e-tickets, so they don't charge you for posting or whatever.

but yeah. showing zero at the mo, but that's often just their allocation, more may get allocated ...
