Not sure if people know that the Victoria Line is closed after 10pm from now until October. Bus fun for anyone needing that line on the way home!

Oh fuck me, that's so shit.

Well, in between now and then I'll have to figure out how to get to someplace where we can pick up the Northern Line, then. bum buggery bollocks.

How's this for funsies: I've just learned that I am giving a MAJOR presentation to my ENTIRE ORGANISATION on the morning after, Weds the 5th. I mean, this is a BIG FUCKING DEAL; basically I am going to have to justify everything I have been doing for the past 3 years to the heads of the museum and representatives from the DCMS. The morning after this gig.

Good thing I am so fucking awesome that this is not a problem.(y) HA :eek:

Booo for the presentation but I feel your pain! I have to be in work at 8am the day after I go and see Prince AND it's a Sunday :(

In practical terms, it's not far to Clapham North which is on the Northern Line

Here's a tube map with the lines marked as to where they really run... It always makes me feel sorry for tourists who get on the tube at Leicester Square to go to Covent Garden just because it looks quite a distance on the map...

Hey that's a great link, thanks for that. So it looks like it's not too far to bus/leg it up to Stockwell for the Northern Line. (Presumably there will be time before the last train runs... man no matter how long I live here I will never get used the idea that the subway stops running just because it's night.)

You know, this just occurred to me the other day as well. We have our tix for the Roundhouse gig on the 6th, but not for the Brix one on the 4th. What's up with that?

I'm glad I found this thread - I've been dealing out lumps of beef to the guy I paid (way over the odds - £50 a ticket) for tickets back in May!

No sign of my 4th September tickets - but I've had my 5th and 6th Sept tickets since June and I've been preparing for a costly loss.

Thanks for doing this thread - it sounds like a bunch of people are in the same boat and that it's hopefully not such a dubious vessel.

Apparently my tickets are booked through Seetickets?

IF I have spares the BBMB fan community will definitely get first dibs.

I got 2 for 5th and i'm looking forward to it. Beasties always rock london.

Is it Northern line from brixton to clapham?

Does anyone know if there are any works on this line or whther it closes at 10pm or anything?

08-31-2007, 05:57 AM
No, it's Northern Line from Clapham to Stockwell, then change to Victoria line for one stop, or walk!

Coming back, the Victoria line closes at 10pm until November for works. There's a replacement bus, or a short walk.

******TUBE STRIKE*********

Most of you know the Victoria line won't be functioning AFTER the gig, but you should also be aware it's likely you won't be able to use tube TO GET to gig.

Tube strike planned from Monday at 6pm for three days.

I hope it gets called off - drivers get paid £30k I heard which I reckon is too much already.


Anyway - best to be prepared to make alternative travel into Brixton.

Hi there, I was wondering if someone could help me.
I'm travelling from liverpool for tomorrow's show
(can't wait by the way!)
haha.. anyway
with all the planned work and strikes on the victoria tube line
i'm a bit worried about getting my coach home.
It leaves London Victoria Coach Station at 11.30..
is this gonna be possible to make?

Can anyone give me any tips on how me and my mate can get to Victoria
in time to make the coach home. (Pref.. without leaving the concert early!!)

thankyou. x

Parkey
09-03-2007, 11:51 AM
Well, talking to their PR they will be on stage from 9pm until 11pm ish. Getting to Victoria for 11:30 could be trouble. In all honesty, a cab is your only chance without leaving early. Soz.

Parkey
09-03-2007, 01:00 PM
I may have 2 tickets for tommorrow night... I'd do them at a tenner each. Let me know if you're interested. It's not definite yet.

b-grrrlie here:
you really need to run fast! it's quite a long walk from station to station! also try to check out in advance which platform your coach leaves. Once I thought I'd make it from the tube station to the coach station in time, even saw my time blinking on the screen when I arrived there, but of course it had to be the furthest platform so I missed my coach...
