I would suggest either Waterloo (South London) or Paddington (North London) as the most likely places. What say you all?

There are lots of good curry houses around Paddington - I think Ian Anderson occasionally has a curry in that part of town, how prog is that?

Arse. I may be travelling to London for a TV studio recording on the 11th and I'll certainly be going on the 28th for my Bonzo gig, but 3 train journeys to London in one month is just impossible on my teensy student loan.

It's bound to be a sordid affair. Should we really take photographic evidence?

Yeah,I bit a few comic books get ripped......

Ok,so I'm jealous.....

Hmmm, here's a thought.

Do we wish to meet up at the Curry house or should we congrigate in a pub beforehand? I only mention this in case there are any late commers and we have to wait to order nosh.

Sounds sensible. Anyone know any London pubs that do music requests? Normally they'd laugh in yer face if you asked to slap some prog on, but if we present a united force... who knows? What a victory for PA that would be!

Good idea TP. Shame I don't know any pubs like that.

sigod's idea is also a good one, but we're going to need something so that we can all recognise each other (apart from a copy of Foxtrot).

A meeting of me and Cyggie, however, could work

Well I'm pretty easy to spot as NutterAlert will testify (even though my girlfriend had stolen my hat when he turned up at the VDGG gig).

Oh, and I wouldn't be seen dead with a copy of Foxtrot anywhere near me. I may take my US edition of Octopus along though.

Do you have to be such an ass? 

I'd never discriminate a prog band like that, especially such an (obviously) great one. I'd bring a copy of Lateralus if asked...

BTW, you never know what you will be seen dead with

I think its unfair to hold it on a weekday or Friday. What about travellers from further afield? I'm not coming, but if I was IO certainly couldnt come on a Friday or any wekday. Looks like a strictly London affair.

Last time Sigod wore a sombrero and we all found him without too much trouble - maybe we should all agree on a particular kind of headgear?
