Paris roll call

[Brel]

Well, as it hasn't been started yet, let me do the honours.

Given the weak pound, can anyone suggest a decent happy hour close by to the Zenith? I know a few places elsewhere in Paris, but I am not familiar with this area.

Merci.

Unfortunately I won't be in Paris, but hope you'll enjoy the gig.

mmm, don't think there's a decent watering hole in the area, apart from the canal but I'll try to find you one and report here if there's anything.

If anybody interesting I already know (I'm shy with strangers) is up for hot chocolate, pm me, I've got Thursday afternoon off. Come on you lazy eurosterbasterds. Are you coming, Hull? Are you coming, Manchestah?

And Are You Coming, Barnsley?
Oh come on Barnsley, don't play hard to get.

And PreggorsPrague? Moztevideo? Chicago? (I'll buy you a drink if you come by train, you know.)

Don't forget to buy a Euromillion ticket this week.
You might be able to invite your friends from those places.

You guys are psychic at the moment! I thought about doing that yesterday! The money was to buy my own place and save the world and become a patron of the arts but hey Kewpie if I win I'll buy you a Morrissey.

Well a bit of him anyway.Like, dead skin cells. Although if you believe certain people I'm already supposed to o- anyway, yeh, Euromillion is cool. Money is more convenient. Money buys you stuff. Morrissey doesn't.

(He means to share his wealth, but permanently collapses instead.)

Doesn't he.

Your not joking Kewpie. A pint costs about £10 in Paris right now, with the poor exchange rate

Barking lives in France which is good for her.

I have no idea what you mean by that. but I agree.

A lot of different countries have had to cope with me though Kewp. Yes it takes strength. Yes it takes patience...

Please tell us the details about seats at the venue.
Are there any standing area available?
And if any, which of the following is a true?

Catégorie 1 GRADINS
Catégorie 2 NON NUMEROTE
Catégorie 3 FOSSE

 

[jean]

Catégorie 1 GRADINS = seats numbered(pink)
Catégorie 2 NON NUMEROTE = seats (green)
Catégorie 3 FOSSE = Standing area (yellow)

Oddly, the standing tickets are the cheapest. It took me a while to get my head around that one

Ana, no need to be hyperventilating. It's like Jean said. You want the fosse. Not Bob. The Pit. Not Brad.

I wouldn't know though, I normally seat upstairs with a bottle of Champ' and escort boys. (As I'm far too old to kick with the stray FYI Julia.) (that and the fact that you can't see anything in the pit when you're a dog.)

And snacks. (little stuffed olives. Houmous. That sort of things).

 

[Ana]

jean, Brel, Barking, thank you for letting me know.
I will buy Catégorie 3 FOSSE.
I do have a question for you, though.
K, A, U, I, A, S at the standing area, what does that mean?
Do they divide the standing area into 6 blocks?

 

[jean]

It means nothing. You can stand anywhere in the yellow area. It is not divided.

 

[Ana]

Thanks a lot for your help, jean.
I will buy Catégorie 3 FOSSE.

I'm already here! To be found propping up the nearest bar. Et Voila.

Shame I have no idea what you look like and where you are, I'd come and join you. You're probably already in a right state but that would have been an interesting convo.
I'm off to there to check the pretty queing Morrissey fans (it's not cold, they're lucky) and mostly for a stroll to digest a huge lunch . If you see something a small dog everybody say hello it's me.

 

[TonyWhiteJr]

Anyone aware of an after show party organized like before the Olympia and Zenith gigs a few years ago ?
Thanks !

PS : I have this very strange feeling right now, I normally am of course very impatient before Morrissey gigs, now all I can think of is that it could very well be the last tour, so the last time I see him, so I kind of want the gig not to come / go too fast.
Boy, this is going to be an emotional night !

I've just got back from there myself. I wouldn't call them pretty
