let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

I hope so. Even sons of vikings has difficulties explaining to girlfriends why I want to ditch Tuscany for some multi-sport& culture complexe full of horrible music (she quite likes Aranis, though).
 
The massif central is just as beautiful as TuscannyStarStarStarStarStar. There is plenty to see in the area, including Albi, Castre (this Cathar country), Cordes, Castelnau >>> fortified villages a gogo.
 
Slightly colder, though!! But I don't think this should scare NorwegiansLOL!!!

I hope to join as well!
 
That is one amazing line-up indeed, especially considering the 'grand finale' of Present and UZ together!!!
 
And Magma of course. AMAZING live band!!!

Over land and under ashes
In the sunlight, see - it flashes
Find a fly and eat his eye
But don't believe in me
Don't believe in me

I definitely think we should arrange something together.  I gather Paris SNCF is very busy in rush hour... I think I have to change there to get on a train to Toulouse.  I'd prefer to travel in good company.

As none of my friends are into this kind of music, it is unfair of me to ask them. LOL

As far as I know, September is fine for me.  I just have to sort out my passport... grrr!  I have a form, I just need some photos.

Well since Chris (and Flora, maybe?), David and James are part of it, normally Martin Alucard (living in Paris) and I (Brussels, but need to go through Paris to get there) and most likely my girlfriend,
 
we can maybe set up athread inside the collab zone to see how we will manage to meet up.

I need to commit myself to this and sort my passport out and then work out how on earth I'll be getting there and then where I'll be staying.

If Chris and/or Melissa are going, is it possible to maybe travel together on the train from London?

If I can make it, might I also join such a party? Embarrassed It's possible that the timing's going to be really bad for me, as I'm hoping to start training to be a teacher this autumn (I haven't had my PGCE interview yet so I've no idea what I'll be doing in a few months) but even so, if there's any way I can wangle it, I'll be going to this one. As soon as my plans solidify I'll post about them here.

Revolution Is Open   Evil Smile
 
 
 
Except for The Muffins tagged UK (instead of US),  and Janik Top's disappearance, this is near perfect
 
 
Especially UZ and Present playing together on Sunday!!!! Hug
