It's only a few weeks away and it'll be here before you know it!   ;)

So whose coming?  For the traditional 'stand in line for ages outside Rockers in the freezing rain with a gig at the end of it' thing?  ;D

Also, where we meeting?  I believe the Tap is the new venue for the aftershow party (RIP, Spanky's!) so perhaps a new venue for the pre-gig-meet?  Any ideas?  I'd suggest The Horn In Hand, just around the corner, but someone with a better understanding of Nottingham might be able to suggest something better... yes, Shush, if you're reading this, I'm looking at you...  ;)

I truly can't wait to meet up with old pals (some of whom I haven't heard from in a good long while) at the best venue in the UK to see our beloved NMA, you know who you are, please post back!

I am reliably informed by my younger son after his visit to the big city last night that Spanky's is now open again but is now called, Albert's. Apart from the odd lick of paint is more or less exactly as it was before. I would imagine that many NMA fans returning to Nottingham for the annual pilgrimage may not know it has been closed for most of the year and will go there before and after the show. Preferring this pub to the Tap as I do, I would sooner meet at Albert's , but I am happy to go with the flow and follow the crowd.

Gotta say that I'd rather go to Alberts than The Tap for a pre-gig... much easier to get a pint, meet with pals and The Tap is so damn LOUD that you can't actually talk to people...  Alberts for me, mate!

Suits me, the soft drinks in the tap are rank rotten.
