Could I suggest the Theatre Royal Bar for Edinburgh ? It's really nice & relaxed, they do food (which is really good according to reviews) and it's right next door to the Playhouse :-D
ReplyDeletewould welcome a suggestion for a location to meet up in Paris... although we're probably spoilt for choice!

Post party should be in a different place.
just got back from barcelona gig..awesome band,tom sounding fantastic,highlights for me were reworkings of clap your hands,dirt in the ground..unreal rendition of sins of the father
ReplyDeleteIt's 23 years since I last went in the Edinburgh Playhouse. October 12 1985... to see Tom Waits... of course. Very expensive it was as well £7.50 (G B Pounds)I don't remember the bars & pubs in the area so I'll take your advice shauneh and try the Theatre Royal Bar.
ReplyDeleteSome people recommended Ryan's Bar in Phoenix Park in Dublin. Perhaps we can get them to play some TW music before and after the shows!
ReplyDeletePS
I'll be there in Ryan's Bar too.

And Me !
ReplyDeleteOn the Fan Forums, I've been trying to keep the suggestions together at http://www.tomwaitsfan.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=4162.
ReplyDeleteThere is a need for a better, handicapped accessible place for the Prague Shows, if anyone knows anyplace.
The large number of Dublin attendees on the forums are pretty set on The Foggy Dew.
If you have comments or suggestions about these meetups, please leave them on the Forum topic. :)
Hey Shauneh, Theatre Royal Bar sounds good to me, i`ll be there for the 2nd night. Cant wait!!
ReplyDeleteAfter going to each website I think I will go to Ryan's bar before the concert and to The Foggy Dew after the show.
