Marc, move heaven and earth to be able to come!

 

I'm trying and hoping it will all work out.

 

Whatever happens, I will be at the first Vienna concert the weekend after.

Johnny Williams!

 

But Joseph has more experience scoring films of the more... slippery variety I believe?

I don't think I'll have time to do so. Perhaps one of our Austrian members could do so?

 

What makes this one more complicated is the fact that it's two concerts, and not at the most convenient times.

He can watch us all go inside the Royal Albert Hall to see John Williams conduct the LSO while he stands outside waiting for us.

Fuck you, asshole!

Richard are you coming for drinks afterwards too or just the meal earlier?

If I can, I'll go to both.

@Nick1066 I see you live in the UK


Are you really not attending the concert?  Nor having dinner with us?

Sadly, no. I'll be on a long planned holiday in Switzerland at the time.  I wish I could be there, mainly because I'd really like to see how everyone acts when they're drunk.

 

Da Mario is a great choice. I went there with a very large group once, and as I recall you can pre-order meals, so it's something you guys might consider.  Get there early.

 

Enjoy the meal & music!

 

So yeah, while in Interlaken I'm going to miss John Wiiliams, U2 (my JW of popular music) @ the O2, fat @Thor, doing a beat down of @Stefancos in the RAH parking lot, and having dinner in the grandest city in the world with you fine people.

 

Worst timed trip ever!  😠

I suggested "UK cinema listings", because it includes London.

I don't know of any London-only, cinema website.

I still recommend the Prince Charles, and also the BFI, and Barbican listings.

"Dumbass"? Me? :)

 

Halloween and Psycho are playing in the Prince Charles on the same day! Decisions!

Anyone know till how late the tubes run in London? 

 

On Friday and Saturday nights the Tubes run all through the night now on parts or all of the deep level lines including the Piccadilly, Victoria, Jubilee and Central.  It is called (unsurprisingly) the Night Tube.  Parts of the London Overground also run all night.  We are a 24 hour city!

 

In terms of proximity to the Royal Albert Hall, stations such as South Kensington and Lancaster Gate will have services all night, but they will stop at about 1 a.m. from High Street Kensington as there is no all-night service on the District or Circle lines.  This map might help:

There are also night buses from central London to many parts of the suburbs, which are an experience like nothing else in the world.  The only sober person on board is usually the driver and there are times when even that is debatable.
