Nah, they're very old-fashioned in England. This is the only means of transportation they got...

If you ever had to travel anywhere in the UK by public transport, then you would understand why docklands88 asked for a lift rather than use it ...

We should not expect mass in front of ticket offices till there is no info about type of tour. at the moment (and for a while) audience does not know what kind of concert they will see, Oxygene tour? Best of tour? For new album?
When one of these confirmed, people begin to buy tickets.
I really doubt that JM would go with Oxygene on tour, also to places they have visited this spring, Glasgow, Manchaster for example...

Great but...
Still nothing for North America or our friends in nearby South America--kinda pathetic but it makes sense as this is a money making endeavor and I think his popularity is just not as great here as in Europe.
Of course he could remedy that by SHOWING UP IN LOS ANGELES or NEW YORK... All it would take is one concert at the Staples Center in LA or Radio City Music Hall in NY (maybe featuring the Christmas dancers "The Rocketts!")

I dont need transport. I have hatched a cunning plan... catch a bus to birmingham coach station which is a 20 min walk from the NIA, then watch the master perform the greatest concert in history (better than PLD), and after all this stay in the etap hotel for the night before going home the following day at 11:30 am.
the only thing to stop me is that if JMJ does not perform in birmingham... then i will commit suicide
i am so exited 2 do this at a JMJ concert---->

I thought about that a few days ago. I have been looking at how different music appeals to the listernes in especially USA and Europe. The US have great electronic acts, but it seems like Europeans have been more happy about electronic components in music, even popmusic. In USA it probably stayed more in the udnerground culture (not to forget how some popular electronic genres of today started over there).moviemaker wrote:Great but...

If you ask most of the people who attended the Houston concert, what they liked about the concert, they would most likely say the lightshow. It was also a free concert, so many probably also attended it because they had to see what the f**k this new thing was.
If he had to make an indoor performance (or performances) or an outdoor ticket concert, northern America would probably be the most attractive. Still this would be open to all americans. And the biggest fans would probably go tehre anyway.
My point: It's probably not impossible to find an audience over there
Sorry for all the "probably" and "most likely" but this was only guessing

I am gonna buy ticket/s and I don't mind what he plays, as long as he is here in the UK.Robi wrote:When one of these confirmed, people begin to buy tickets.
I know how you would feel if that was the case but JMJ would not like it. Can you imagine the news headline about a JMJ fan commits suicide because he did not play a concert in Birmingham?docklands88 wrote:the only thing to stop me is that if JMJ does not perform in birmingham... then i will commit suicide

As someone who can get to the MEN Arena in Manchester in approx half an hour (8 minutes walk to local station and then 12 minutes on the train to Manchester and then the rest of the journey on foot through a rather packed out Piccadilly station and getting THROUGH and past the Arndale centre) I am loving everything there is about travel 
Heck, just for the fun of it, I think I'll maintain the art of 'going to the venue to purchase the tickets there without the need for postage' because even if I became lazy, it would still work out cheaper to go to the venue in person
I have my advantages even if I don't have proper space for guests
You could camp in the garden, but as it's a communal garden, I wouldn't want to offend/upset the other residents
So if anyone plans to go to the Manchester concert, book in the new year for your hotel room and allow me to be the first to mention FANMEETING (and this time, I'll pick a better location for that around Manchester)
