Well looks like we're going to this one now, booked a few nights down there for a short break away. I've been going to Cornwall ever since I was a child and we've been meaning to go back for a while so this is a perfect opportunity

I've been to the Eden Project a couple of times and loved it, but never been to a gig there. I remember Brandon Flowers played there a few years back and I really wanted to go but couldn't.

Maybe give the barriers a miss and still go?

I won't feel secure in further rows in the crowd and staying at the very far won't provide me a good view. I'm 138cm tall (around 4'5). Unfortunatelly, safety first. (unless Nicky provides me a backstage spot)

Is it on the flat or on the slope? Eden has sloping edges, might be able to get a view from higher up

tbh I don't really want to risk. It would be a russian roulette, and the whole trip would be too expensive to try my luck

Smile Who's Going?

Made the relatively late decision to go to Eden on my own, all the expense and travel will be totally justified, I couldn't bear the thought of not being at this unique site, it will be an amazing experience.

Is anybody else going solo? Perhaps a Saturday pre-show meet up would be fun?

What time are people thinking of getting in the queue?
