Next Apolytner U.K Pissup?
I wouldn't mind meeting some genuine U.K Apolytoners. Of course I wouldn't want to do it sober, so lets get organised.
I want to see NoFx and it appears their only u.k appearance will be at something called the download festival.
http://www.downloadfestival.co.uk/lineup/
I'm not to sure about some of the other bands on the lineup. Iron Maiden?? Marlyn Manson??
Any takers for this event or perhaps just a London meet.

The event's at Donington, so you've a fair chance of getting a contingent from both the northerners and southerners.
Personally speaking, I can't make that. However I think it's about time we got one together. I'm sure one in the vicinity of London would net several takers.

Actually we had several meets in the last couple of weeks...

You're far more likely to get a London meet off the ground if you post through CG. This is in part due to the, ahem, policy shifts, of certain Apolyton Moderators that have alienated a number of UK posters...

You and Boris could organise something, apparently he's going to be in London at the end of the month...

Is that where it is? I'm fairly ignorant of the geography at the moment.

Can't afford Download... some good bands, some terrible bands there anyway. A London meet is probably your best bet, much as it pains me to say as a northerner...

I guess we could be encouraged to have another one if you ask nicely - we could do a pub crawl of south bank riverside pubs...?

Woo! I might be going to the Bloodstock festival in Derby at the end of August. A rare occasion that Hammerfall and Nightwish are playing the UK.

London pub crawl. Wouldn't that cost a fortune It might even be cheaper for them to travel out of London, just for cheaper alcohol.
Unless someone want's to throw a 'gathering' themselves?

I can certainly make a London (or its environs) meet if there is one.
Be good if Boris and yourself were both able to make it to the same one.

It looks very much as if I will be in the UK sometime between November and January, so hopefully we can get something together then.
