June 27, 200619 yr But the Arena's right down by the river, on it's own, and up a big flight of steps! I know - there's a little shop you went to "just round the corner" - and you just happened to walk past the front of the Arena. :lol: Or of course you could have been booking for something else! Must admit it's nice to see Will's name outside any theatre or arena. :D Even better when it's sold out! :dance: http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a379/dafyd/100_0465.jpg What a lovely sight chrysalis. :yahoo: Was on a bit of a Will fact finding mission today. I'm absolutely hopeless with directions so hubby who works in Newcastle took me through in the car & we went past the Arena & located the Travel Lodge as I've decided to stay over with my Devoted friends. Finished off with a lovely walk along the quayside taking in the view of the Sage (praying that one day Will will perform there) & Malmaison where he usually stays when in Newcastle.
June 27, 200619 yr Glad you had a great day in Newcastle TT. Piccie a bit dark, but a reminder of the Sage (and Baltic building). Maybe - one day :funky: http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a379/dafyd/Baltic1.jpg
June 28, 200619 yr The Sage is a purpose-built music and arts centre by the River Tyne in Gateshead. I'm sure JB has performed there. It has brilliant acoustics & would be ideal for an intimate gig from our man. Here's a link to the website suggy. http://www.thesagegateshead.com/
June 28, 200619 yr He's performed outside this building though hasn't he, when he did the TOTP gig :lol:

June 28, 200619 yr Thanks TT, it looks really nice but what's the crowd capacity for it please? :) It has a few rooms suugy but the largest holds around 1600. Munchkin he did perform nearby on the Gateshead quayside for TOTP alfresco. Still kick myself for not going but by the time he was announced as performing all the tickets were gone. Didn't thgink about going & standing omn the millemium bridge. Edited June 28, 200619 yr by truly talented

Thank's TT, I think there'd be a bit of a scramble for the tickets wouldn't there? :cool: blood would be spilled. :lol:
June 28, 200619 yr Thank's TT, I think there'd be a bit of a scramble for the tickets wouldn't there? :cool: blood would be spilled. :lol: It sure would & I might be spilling it if I didn't manage to get a ticket. :lol:
June 28, 200619 yr Really would be great if he could make the Sage at some time. After all we up here rarely get the chance to see him without having to travel to the other end of the country. And if he did appear there woe betide if I didn't get a ticket. http://www.smileypad.com/v202/Cache/Angry/PutEmUp.gif

As you say Will rarely visits our neck of the woods so a ticket would be a must.

June 29, 200619 yr I'd join you TT together with my primus stove!! :lol: You do that & I'll let you share my sleeping bag.
July 9, 200618 yr There is a little bit in the Stella magazine in today's Telegraph about the Puppini Sisters. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v317/GillP/Puppini.jpg They sound OK and I am looking forward to seeing them in September.
July 9, 200618 yr Thanks Dot, I think Will's got two decent support acts this time and I'll probably spend less time in the bar on this tour. :D
July 11, 200618 yr I will watch them the first time then I will probably be in the bar for the rest of the tour :P
