EDITED (again) IT'S TOMORROW!!! We already have decided- Hard Rock Cafe it is3 oc'clock, although some may start earlier. :) I'll have a Black Sabbath's PARANOID t-shirt If someone could just post the EXACT route for those who don't know Mnachester... |
| Crazy LittleThing 29.04.2005 10:14 |
Hi Fenderek: Either place sounds fine to me. How 'bout Hard Rock Cafe, going with the rock and roll theme! Time? |
| Fenderek 29.04.2005 10:36 |
Hard Rock Cafe sounds fine. Others? Agreed? |
| Sonia Doris 29.04.2005 12:42 |
who can come? |
| leia 29.04.2005 14:39 |
I'll try and get there, it does depend on the person who's coming with me....... Mind you I'm sure he won't mind. It also depends on me, as to how much money I'll have, and if I've been drinking else where before hand. |

I don't remember what time the doors open or when the gig starts, plus it's in UK time and the conversion will be difficult for this American to calculate at the current time rate. HA! I don't want to get totally wasted as I would like to actually be able to REMEMBER the gig I have been waiting to see since 1980! Should be fun. Looking forward to meeting lots of nice people. |

I'M SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!Hey, like the very little lady said in "Poltergeist" "All are welcome!" I say we take the Hard Rock Cafe by storm! In a nice way, of course. I'll try to get a feel for how many of us will be there and give them advance warning. This should be fun! |

somebody email me and Ill pass on my mobile number for the night. sean_brookes22@hotmail.com |

I spoke with the manager of the HRC in Manchester and they're expecting about 20 or so of us in the bar in the afternoon/early evening on the 4th. What would be a good official start time? |
| man on the prowl 30.04.2005 15:50 |
hi there, i was reading this topic and wondered if it was ok to join you guys on the 4th, i'm taveling down from scotland with my wife and would love to meet some queen fans, could someone email me the meeting time thanks, baz |
| Crazy LittleThing 30.04.2005 16:43 |
baz: Couldn't email you--no address . . . absolutely join us! Not sure of an official start time yet, and it would be dangerous for the City of Manchester if I were to sit in the bar by myself drinking for hours. Could be an international incident or two if left to my own devices and too many Cosmopolitans ;-) To avoid such an incident I am trying to get a feel for when others will arrive. To those who have been going to the shows: how early do people start lining/queueing up? --crazylittlething@queenzone.com |
| Sir Archie 'Tiffany' Leach 30.04.2005 19:28 |
Hard Rock Cafe eh? Flashman and I will give you a toot when we drive past in the Bentley. |
| Crazy LittleThing 30.04.2005 19:49 |
Loved you when you played Cary Grant, Archie! |
| Fenderek 01.05.2005 07:33 |
Sir Archie- my Aston Martin will be parked outside |
| Queen& 01.05.2005 10:27 |

When can we start? 3? 4? I'll have a Black Sabbath's PARANOID t-shirtFenderek: Let's make it official: 3:00. I'll be the one speaking American. I'll be looking for your "paranoid" shirt. Have no idea what I'll be wearing as I'm female and will be deciding that at the last moment and will no doubt have neglected to pack some crucial part of the "perfect" outfit. I have shoulder-length, light brown hair and the physical description only gets worse from there, so I'll spare you the details. ;-) Thanks for starting this thread and for keeping this going. I look forward to meeting you! Cindy |
| Crazy LittleThing 01.05.2005 15:08 |
Oh yeah, Sir Archie and Fenderek: Drive by? Park out front? Really boys, this IS the Hard Rock Cafe! I always like to make an entrance, so I'll drive my 1959 Cadillac Eldorado through the front door and into the bar. Anyone need a ride? link |
| leia 01.05.2005 18:48 |
You'll have a bloody hard job driving anything into that place, and as for parking outside forget it!! Mind you, if you have a nice OCC chopper, now that would be something of an entrance. That would be something to see. As I start my new job on Tuesday, I've no idea what I'll be doing on Wednesday yet, but I'll do my best to get down to the Hard Rock. Me thinks it's either going to be a 7 min train ride to the arena or a tram ride into Manchester, asap....... Not sure what I'll be wearing, but as this was my hockey arena, perhaps an hockey shirt. If so spot the Edmonton Oilers shirt anyone. Perhaps that or a Smallville t-shirt |

Is anyone takin a digi cam, not sure wot to do, will the bouncers try to grip it from me? |
| Andy P 02.05.2005 04:49 |
I'd like to meet up with you guys too. I don't really post much on here but check it out most days. I'll be gettin into Victoria station at about 3pm so how do i get to the Hard Rock from there, anybody tell me? |
| leia 02.05.2005 07:04 |
Andy, are you getting into Victoria by train or tram?? It doesn't really matter as there is only 1 way out of the station. You'll see 3 exits, 2 of which face the tram tracks, the other is at the end of the station. Any of the exits will do you, but if you take the ones facing the tracks turn left and head straight up, the one at the end of the station will take you that way. All you then have to do is get to the busy road and on the corner you'll see the Printworks, it's a huge building. Hard Rock is just around the corner, but if you miss it, go inside of the Printworks and ask for Hard Rock. You'll get a few funny looks for it, but you'll understand when you realise it's about 30 yards away. |
| man on the prowl 02.05.2005 10:15 |
hard rock cafe is a definate for me and my good lady, we're coming down from scotland in the morning and will be there about lunchtime, so we'll be there at around 2pm, cant wait to meet you all, i'll be watching for the "paranoid" t-shirt Fenderek. If anyone else knows what the're wearing, post it on and i'll keep an eye out for you!! just listen out for the scottish accent and that'll be me, my name is Barry by the way!!! cant wait!! see you on wednesday |

OKI- my last post before going to Manchester! see you guys THERE!!! |
| Simoriah 03.05.2005 16:20 |
Here's a link for the Hard Rock cafe in Manchester: link This is the directions bit: link It's at the end of town nearer to Victoria station and the arena. Piccadilly train station is at the other side of the town. And regarding cameras - I think you'll be ok as long as it isn't a professional one with a super zoom lens or something. See some of you there tomorrow. Rachel |
| Brian_Mays_Wig 04.05.2005 05:26 |
Brian_Mays_Wig will be there with his brother, we look alike. Ill be wearing a blue Queen T-shirt and a waist length cream coloured Jacket with a pin badge on the lapel. Look forward to seeing you all. |
| Black-Rose 04.05.2005 07:29 |
I think I am going to wear my Too Drunk To FCUK t shirt. |
| Crazy LittleThing 04.05.2005 09:00 |
Am still deciding what to wear. See you in an hour or so. |
| leia 04.05.2005 19:18 |
I'm sorry I didn't make it. My friend was a miserable sod, and complained about being ill. He ended up paying for the car park ticket. He's a really funny so and so when it comes to this sort of thing |
| Fenderek 05.05.2005 09:57 |
OK- many ppl either didn't make it or... simply the palce was a bit too big and we got lost... Didn't help the fact that many ppl before gig went there, not many of them even heard about queenzone... :) BUT- it was a pleasure to meet man on the prowl and his LOVELY lady :) (Barry- say hallo from Tom), Cindy and few others- it was a REAL pleasure, before and AFTER the gig. Drinking few beers before such a great gig, in such a great company- what else would one want? We were joking that bloody Paranoid t-shirt wasn't obvious enough- and that we needed a banner above our table... Oh well- the night was great, those who made it I hope don't regret. :) Thanx GUYS!!! |
