1. ROLL CALL...The reading aloud of a list of names of people, as in a classroom or military post, to determine who is present or absent
People are talking about it on various threads, but lets run it up the flagpole and see if the cat sucks it off (yay, pop culture reference!)...
For me, it's myself (obviously), my pal Dan (not on this Forum but a hardened NMA-er whose seriously put in the hours) and our pal Matt, seasoned gig-goer but an NMA newbie...
This might be a good place for anyone to post some problems, if they have them... accommodation, travel etc... seeing as the Forum is so active nowadays, it seems that we might have a pretty decent turnout of people who talk to each other all the time but have never met!
Seven weeks to go... :D
-
Well im going. Room and train booked, beer money squirelled away. Cant wait. Be nice to meet some of you even if I dont realise it lol. I like to do my own thing and get lost as it were!
-
Yes i will be there Train tickets paid for and room booked Get into Nottingham about 13.30 Think I'm allowed into my room from 14.00 So should be in the town for 15.00 Still need to do a saving for irn bru lol and food but that shouldn't be a major problem.
I'm really looking forward to it especially as its a special gig Looking forward to seeing the nma family crew as well should be interesting Ps I will practice my English before i get there lol or i will need a interpreter lol
-
I might show my Chevy Chase
Got my bus card paid for, and my own sweet bed standing by
-
I'll be there, it would be rude not to as I ain't missed a Rock City gig for years
Also doing the Forum the night before
-
Four of us reporting for gigs, beer & curry (+ 1 hire car) doing London & Notts - Jsyirish, Pazza & Belza, sadly not venturing to Amdam this year.
-
I will be in Rock City, Nottingham, that night and I do have a room booked to crawl back to. Of this I am certain..... ::)
-
I'm going and also the london gig:)
styaing at the stage hotel - pokey little hole that does it's job!!
-
Yes as Neilly says I will be going (London as well). Haven't got any digs booked yet in Nottingham as been hoping the prices might drop but not looking promising. Any suggestions for anywhere cheap and in the vacinity of RC?
-
Me & my better half will be there. Heading down from Leeds on the Friday night & making a weekend of it. Staying in the Park Hotel on Waverley Street. Looking forward to it.
Cheers,
Zen
-
The stage is 30 a room - as mentioned not great but does its job not too far from RC - couple of mile I think.

Have you tried Travelodge on Maid Marian Way. Only about five mins walk from Rock City.
-
Myself and my mate Gazza are coming.Booked in at The Park Hotel also......maybe a sneaky pint with Zenboy at some stage? ;)
-
Would love to do Notts, fly there and see you all. I've heard so much talk about the gigs there nowadays and in the past. Unfortunately just can't do it now.
Eeh Shush, Chevy Chase? You mean Fletch? ;-)

Not at the moment :D

I think I´ll make my way over to Nottingham to see my first gig ever in the motherland.
Really curious as how it´s different to continental europe :)
-
My partner, our girl and me will be there - can't wait. It's been too long, and I love taking our girl to gigs. She's 17 now and quite happy go go down to the front and get stuck in.
-
I'll be there.

Pol, NRC is my very favourite UK venue, been there many times...
About 1500 capacity? And it's laid out that you're never very far from the front, even if you're at the back or on the balcony... you'll see what I mean when you're there.
The atmosphere..? Usually shit hot. Notts folks know how to give it some...
Lookig forward to seeing you there, sir!
-
Thanks for that M.R. Looking forward to seeing you and everyone one from the forum there as well, as well as the rest of the nma family. I might even break my self imposed alcohol ban for it lol
-
Just did a bit of research and apparently Rock City is nearly 2500 in capacity... apologies...
-
Yep, I'll be there - along with the usual crew of Mark Griffiths, Steve Chapple-Gill (hopefully) and celebrating his 50th, Darrel Stephens. Travelodge on Maid Marian Way again.
DON'T forget our regular After Gig Gathering at Spanky van Dykes either. After the gig until about 2am. Lots of good music in the upstairs room - punk, alternative, goth, 2Tone etc etc. Free entry!
-
Your aftershow In Warrington was a cracker, looking forward to more of the same, sir! Spanky's it is (especially as my hotel is just staggering-distance down Goldsmith St!)
-
will anyone be making it to the canalside / trip to jerusalem this year...?
If you're in town early and fancy a pint let me know...

Good oh Pol. Still waiting for mine. Serves me right for not nipping round to the Rock City ticket office. :-[
-
I wish but i just did the entire October tour and November Jes and Dean tour. I hope someone captures the guest musician section on DVD. As much as I hate people filming through the entire gigs.
