London Show - November 7th?

justnoah · Oct 19, 2011, 06:25 AM

Hi all -

Long time MMJ fan here in Europe for about 6 months and just had my travel schedule line up well to see the London show on November 7th (and it's a good thing since Paris isn't on the current tour nor was it on the summer itinerary either).

Wondering who else is going from here? Also, I have some questions about the venue -- if anybody has been to the Roundhouse before I'd love some suggestions on what type of ticket to get. It seems that the reserved seats that are left aren't so good -- so go for standing room? And as discussed here MMJ doesn't seem to have taken off in the UK (yet) so also wondering if just turning up and finding a ticket for sale there might be another way to go? suggestions welcome and also open for meeting up for a pint before the show if anybody is interested -- I can't believe that I get to see HATH *AND* MMJ in 2 weeks!

I'm going and I'm so excited about it it's all I talk about these days! :D :D :D :D Never been to Roundhouse either, looking forward to it though! Woop, woop! :D I'd be nice to meet up, just gotta check with my friend so she's ok with it too

Hi - definitely go for main area standing rather than seats at the roundhouse. It's a cool venue, very unique but I recal it has a lot of columns which get ion the way of some of the seats. I reckon MMJ will be awesome there - if nothing else cos it's a pretty small place.

Definitely standing to get a good view. The Roundhouse is pretty intimate in GA - get down the front and enjoy it...

Excellent -- thanks all. Have booked a standing ticket and will plan to be there early enough to queue up for the front. Still up for meeting for a pint before the show if people are interested.

I'm traveling to London from New Orleans and scored tickets for this show. There's a great pub called the Enterprise (according to google) Anyone wanna meet up before hand? Probrably get there around 4pmish.

justnoah · Nov 03, 2011, 09:25 AM

I'm up for meeting at The Enterprise. I probably won't get there until closer to 4:30 or 5.

Sounds like a plan. I'll be there! I'm about to head to the airport so I'll check back on this thing once I land to see if anyone else wants to join in.

Sounds like there might be a few of us there tomorrow late afternoon/early evening. I'm planning on getting in line fairly early to get a good spot and catch HATH.

I'm about 5'10 (thats just under 2 meters for those of you on the metric system.. like the Swedish ;). I have brown hair and a beard with a bit more grey in it than I'd like to admit sometimes. Keep a lookout.

I'm starting to get fired up for this now. Somerset House was my first MMJ gig but something seemed a bit off kilter for me that night, probably due to the fact that we got through the gate at the exact second they kicked off with VD and were stuck at the back.

Have a great time and let us know how it went!

Beat Poet · Nov 07, 2011, 03:59 AM

If we get either one of At Dawn or What A Wonderful Man (or both) I will die.

Doors are at normal time tonight right? Don't want to be caught out by an early start!

coldnebraskablue · Nov 07, 2011, 04:54 PM

We're back!

coldnebraskablue · Nov 07, 2011, 08:29 PM

Extended curfew! RAGING! 40 minute delay while the fire brigade checked things out, then back to normal. Even ended up in a slightly better position in the "second half".

We got "At Dawn", "It Beats 4 U", "Wonderful" and a killer "Mahgeetah". I'm tired. Bye.
