The Voxgate for Bristol will be at The Hatchet pub in Frogmore Street as last year. It's the oldest pub in Bristol and is about a minute's walk from the rear of the Colston Hall. It does do food. Oh and there's a multi-storey NCP car park (Trenchard Street) opposite the rear of the Colston Hall, for those driving.

The other Bristol thread has been deleted. Whatever disagreement is going on is a private matter between those involved - please keep it off of the Forum. Don't make me start the year by handing out suspensions, it'll make me very grumpy. And if I do have to suspend anyone, you won't be allowed back until after the tour - you have been warned.

Huh! Who put you in charge! Er....

Hi all,and a happy New Year to everyone.Can any of you Bristolians recommend a hotel/travelodge near to the venue for me and the good lady to stay?...have never been to Bristol,so looking forward to it! Have seats in Stalls Row B seats 5-6,would be great to meet some of you too.Thanks in advance,Ian.

Hi Ian,

For Bristol, the Travelodge Central hotel from the same group is also available for £29 per room on Monday 12th. It's central to the town, and very close to the Bristol venue, so I’d recommended this be the one you get for this concert if you are able to.

Paul,all booked,see you guys on the night and thanks for your great help!

I've been looking at the Premier Inn for Bristol - there are a few - is King Street close to the venue?
Thanks

Ian - you'll be right behind Rob and I - Row A, 5&6!

Jus - Yes, Premier Inn at King Street is a short walk away from the venue. About 5 mins, I'd say.

Booked the Marriott Royal Hotel, got a nice deal

Hi Cerise - is the train station close to the venue?
thanks

It's walkable in around 15-20 mins (depending on your speed), or take a taxi outside the station, it's just a short ride.

Nice one Cerise,will be great to meet you guys!

Thanks Cerise.

Well thanks to a jolly good friend who suddenly had a spare available, I now have a ticket for Bristol! Woohoo! See you all in the pub then!

What time are we thinking of congregating?

me and my chap will be there at 6ish, after we get rid of the kids lol

Thanks 'Jolly good friend ' for giving Phil a ticket for Bristol. I did Not give another persons ticket to Phil. Now I hope the foolish person who thought this will now leave another person alone. Get a Life! ( sorry Cerise I know this board is not for this, that is why i have not mentioned names)
Just want to Have a Great Time in April & ENJOY ULTRAVOX!

Ooooh get you

Did not Cerise state above that any dissagreements should be kept private and to yourself we all know who your talking about anyway so you should have just kept this comment to yourself - end of

Now have finally obtained a ticket - after my recent fiasco, I should be able to pop along.

See you then,

Martin

see you all at the hatchet later xxxxxxxxxxxxx

leaving home at about 3, so just in time to meet the Bristol Rush hour traffic.....

Pick up my ticket first and then off to the pub!!

See you there,

Martin

I'm in Row B, 7 & 8 so I'll almost be directly behind you as well!

Nice to meet you and chat with you briefly at the Oxford New Theatre Cerise (I spoke with you right at the end of the gig from a few seats back). I'm sure you must have had a few "passing strangers" come up and say 'hi' to you after recognising you from here so I hope you didn't mind me introducing myself.

See you tonight for another great Ultravox show

just back from the bristol gig, had a great night met quite a few people and am uploading pics but am a bit drunk so will post them tommorow lol oh and midge signed me book well chuffed

Had an absolutely wonderful time....didnt want it to finish!! Thanks to Brian for looking after me in the pub and then we find ourselves sat together in the concert. Small world!!

Drive home was a little fraught, as got shall we say lost and instead of rejoining the motorway at Avonmouth, ended up at the Airport. Then the A38 was closed, so had a trip over Dartmoor. Got home at 2.30am!! But not complaining!!!

Best wishes,

Martin

Hi Martin,

Nice to meet you too.

I think we must have bought our late Bristol tickets on the same day.

Thanks for putting up with me.I was so tired from the weekend in London that I was quieter than usual.

Cerise spotted me at the bar & remarked that I was staring into space.I was zonked from lack of sleep.Glad I only did 3 dates.

Dont know how the band & crew cope.

Brian

Don't think I've been that tired in ages - only adrenalin perked me up for the Bristol gig. I was comatose in my room still at 4pm trying to get a nap while Zosh was swearing at her laptop for not uploading pics fast enough...

I got home at 2pm,had half hour nap & was back out the door for Bristol at 3pm.

Got stuck in the carpark after the show for a bit then figured out I could go up as well.Got to bed at 12:45,got to sleep at 2.I was still that much on a high.Woke up 6 wide awake.

I spent most of last night uploading so tonight is a proper chill out in front out of the tell night.

I have New Europeans from Bristol on vid as a souvenir just in case they dont come back again.
(before the 'safety police' stopped me.

Its going with me to my desert island
