hi just to warn you that the ship and whitelocks are pretty small venues that get very busy. So if it all gets too crowded either head for the Victoria Pub behind Leeds Town Hall (a much bigger Pub) or check out the Beer Festival in Leeds Town Hall. Great coincidence that an international beer festival is in town all weekend with food and music - though there is an entrance charge.

Thanks for local insight Suz - much appreciated. Always good to have someone on the inside.
Using all my fingers looks like there are no more than ten of us potentially going to rendezvous, so we're not going to take over a pub regardless of size.
Stick to original plans -or not? Thoughts?

We are in Leeds!
Cold wet and windy, but forecast brighter tomorrow
I think the reason these pubs were mooted was because they were quite near the arena,
Stan you will love this hotel! See you tomorrow

I think

the plan is to head to the Ship for 4 then move onto Whitelocks shortly after. I'm easy (but don't believe all the rumours), and be where others prefer.

Was hoping to head over but unfortunately I can't even make it to the show now. I'm absolutely gutted. Hopefully he'll be back round one more time in the future. At least I have my memories from the front row at Manchester.
