There's a map on their website - www.birmingham-academy.co.uk
It's pretty close to New Street Station I think.

Aaaah...thank you. I know where Birmingham Academy is, but I'm unsure about Birmingham Academy 2. Im all confused lol. Someone said it was inside birmingham academy. which confused me even more.

i'll have a look as soon as this bloody thing finishes loading...

I think they are in the same building. But if you find out that they're not then let me know cos I don't want to be hanging around the wrong place wondering why OLP haven't turned up!!

according to the ticketmaster, here is the address of the BA2

did anyone hear of either opening band and what is with the 10PM curfew on Friday and Saturday nights.

That's interesting. The guys in Colour of Fire think they're only playing the London show! I asked on their site.

Is anyone going to the Manchester or London shows? There's a CC meetup at Manchester definitely and maybe in London. And CMers would be very welcome.

Yeah, tis in the same biulding then. Apparently its like a tiny little room. Which excites me muchly.

And, wow, Wilt. I like them Distortion rocks. Haven't heard of the other band.

10pm curfew? Whaaaaaat?


I'll be wearing my coolio tshirt with a Flying V on the front. There can't be many of them...come and say hi if you see me haa.

I'll look out for you. I'll be the one in the front row with Gail And loitering around before the show!

It looks like they have a club in the Academy on Friday and Saturday nights - hence the stopping at 10pm thing.

That's really shit. I noticed the doors were opening quite early, actually. I never really thought about it though.

I might suggest that we stop at the club a bit then. It's meant to be really good. And if we're already there....y'know....

That is...if it's, like, a rock club. Else I'll probably get beat upon or something, lol.

It looked like a dance music kind of club to me. Bleugh.

I think we'll hang around for a bit and then we're driving up to Manchester!

*jealous*

I really wanted to go to Manchester too, but my friends are all gits - I think they're too scared to be that far from mommy and daddy, lol.

ARGH. Why don't they understand my need for this?

Still....at least I got them to go to B'ham (less than a week :):))

gits?

*clumsyrific* wrote:gits?

Hmm...is there a literal meaning of gits? Is that what you're ing at?

Or...is it coz its un-Americanised? If so, I use it in a "little buggers" kind of sense. (not literal buggers, either. oh. confusion.)

I haven't ever hear that word in my life.

Haha. Fair enough. Well, yeah, in my language (known as Sarish) it means "buggers", usually mixed in with "selfish". So there. lol.
