What about one?

I'd really love to see real people listening to Pulp!

Fran, could you suggest a place and time for it?

That would be great. I was hoping someone might suggest this as I am too pathetically shy to do it myself, so thanks.

and the people on here are absolutely lovely as well- from what I remember of that hazy hazy Feeling Gloomy night before Wireless. I wish I could be there...

Hi Mia,

I'm not really familiar with London that much, I will be travelling up from Bristol in the morning. So I could guess like a tourist, but that is likely to lead me to more pricey options. The RAH itself has various bars, and there are a couple of cafes by the Serpentine and a very nice looking cafe in the Victoria and Albert Museum, but that looks like it closes just after 5. As it will be the first weekend of the school holidays here, anywhere family oriented is likely to be heaving. 

How about this? Google maps shows a pub round the corner in Queen's Gate that sounds OK, so long as you allow time for busy-ness, but I find the whole of London is heaving with people, so you can't expect to find anywhere that isn't massively busy. What time do you want to be in the Albert Hall, do you have a seat or standing ticket?

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/place?cid=3694008860182970199&hl=en&t=m&dtab=2&ie=UTF8&ll=51.504829,-.188999&spn=0.000013,0.000021&z=16&vpsrc=6

If anyone else on here actually knows anything about the area, maybe they can do better?

Quick heads up - the touts bought too many tickets. If you need a reasonably priced ticket still, check Ebay / Viagogo.

I'd be up for meeting before the gig but have plans afterwards. Would be nice to meet some other Pulp fans, I feel like the only one!

I have to collect my ticket from the box office after 6:45 apparently, arghhhh!!! What time do doors open?

My seat ticket will be available after 6:45 as well.
I suppose there's no way to sneak into the standing area, is it?

So jealous of all of you guys. Is it this Saturday? Nearly tempted even though I haven't got a ticket.

Doubtful, Mia. Sturdy is well versed in how to do it if there is a way, though. He leaps from seated into standing, y'see.

Although I can't imagine that's too doable at RAH.

Didn't it say doors open at 6:45, so that would tally with tickets being available then, but I suppose there will be a queue to collect them?? Do some of you with standing tickets already have them? Yes you do, I remember the courier tales of woe now. So some people will potentially be getting straight in at 6.45.

I have a seated ticket, so am happy to go with whatever timescale people want for meeting.

 That is my plan! Count me in for the meet up.  I went to another concert at the RAH last year, and there is a bar in some student building (I think) right next to the venue.  The problem is I can't remember the name of the place now.

Won't be able to make a meet up as I've no spare time from getting off the train, checking in the hotel and getting to the gig. Hopefully I'll see some familiar faces inside though.

I'd definately recommend a meet up though, everyone I met off here last year was lovely.

I've looked up the pubs nearest RAH on google.

http://www.allinlondon.co.uk/locator/locate.php?locate=330-3

The nearest one is this one:

http://www.allinlondon.co.uk/clubs_bars/venue-1642.php

I'd say meet here about 5-ish?

That's the same one I found below, the Queen's Arms, had some reasonable sounding reviews, a proper pub rather than some ultra touristy rip off establishment. I looked on street view and it seemed to be in quite a small back street, but still reckoned it got very busy with Albert Hall punters.

We will miss you there! Wave to me if you see me leaping from a balcony into the standing area.

And don't forget about the Pulp Special at Feeling Gloomy after the gig. Lots of all your fave Pulp tunes and some other treats, plus all the usual Gloomy fun.

I'm going to come to Queen's Arms around 5pm, short copper hair and brace on the right hand - easy to notice :)

I need to do the right thing and catch the last train home. But I'll be in the Queen's Arms around 5ish for the meet up.

You'll be hard to spot then!

For anyone I haven't met before I'm of small build, short blonde hair, and will probably be wearing black DM boots with red roses and green leaves embroided on.
