I am hoping to get to Dublin - Cork doesn't look likely. Based in B'ham I could go south or north - you lot seem to know where to go for the cheapest flights - what's the best option so far ? As I said sometime this week I can pick a few up on the way if necessary.

It was always a long shot but my work deadline is 4 hours away and we have about 3 days work to do so I think it's now certain I won't be chasing last minute flights. Have a good gig anyone that's going.

I have just sent Cliff and Dave Richings a review of the Belfast gig from the Irsih Times on Weds 8 August 2001. Cmos: can you publish it on the site?

Sorry, the Irish Times!! Can't see right today!!

There's also a review of the Belfast gig in yesterday's Irish News which I'll send.

How do you put those links in? Two great interviews about the band.

Interested to read 3 different songs will be played on Sunday - I wish I could be there to hear Bittersweet (you lucky lot). Who was it in Derry who said they were a big fan of Jump Boys? Or have I imagined this. Derek - have you booked the flights yet? I think I'm going to book this w/e - the outward is very reasonable and it's probably more likely to go up rather than down.

Lindsay, I think it was me that muttered about JUMP BOYS on the bus, I have always wanted them to do this again!!Delighted.By the way, anyone looking to read the Derry Journal article can see it at www.derryjournal.com Good luck.

can someone tell me the date of the xmas gig as i want to book some were to stay and were the gig is thanks to cliff henry lindsay have you lot booked any were to stay in dublin as i think we would have a great nights crack ps maybe vinny and debbie could join us talk to you soon

holidays booked for 18/19/20 December. Its gonna happen happen ....

Lindsay, I haven't booked yet but I'm certain for the outward flight. What about the 10.20am return flight then? Wilke, the xmas gig is Cork 19th and Dublin 20th. Possibly staying at Globetrotters in Dublin (a cheap hostel with dorms in and can be booked over the web I think).

Donald I think your going to need to book the 21st off as well after all our celebrations.

Wilke:still haven't worked out whether Deborah and I are going yet to Dublin/Cork.Can't see past this Premiere!!!!!Will talk soon.
