Yeah, sure do    See ya in a few weeks 

[Rainfox]

It is you - cool!

Looking forward 

[arnarsi]

Well, I am not from there, only been there once in my life so therefore I propose someone familiar with the place to suggest a good place.

[Lars]

Can't wait 

[Rainfox]

Lars!

Let me know if you wanna coordinate transportation. I should arrive home Sunday night from the Sweden gig and we're set on driving early Monday morning.

It's gonna be a blast! 

And we have to find a suitable cafe/bar for the pre-show HTGTH meet up and with whoever wants to meet up..

[arnarsi]

What about something in Jomfru Ane Gade or is that too far away?

[Rainfox]

It's about 5-6 km from there.

[jarmo]

It all depends on what time you guys are planning on heading to the venue.

I'm gonna arrive in Aalborg in the early afternoon, need to check in at the hotel first and then I can head out...

[Rainfox]

Cool. We should be arriving about noon.

I've asked out among friends on FB, for recommendations on good bars/cafes in Aalborg. Maybe something will turn up...

 

[arnarsi]

same here, arrive around noon on the monday. ready 4 some danish ?l

[kaasupoltin]

Trying to find the money to attend this show. Would be so fucking cool.

[Rainfox]

Join us!

Great pics you posted from Finland BTW.

 

[Rainfox]

Okay so..

I've been recommended Cafe Luna - www.cafe-luna.dk - for the pre-show meet, for those interested?

It's in the center of the city (that means 5 km from the venue) but it's a cool, cozy cafe with a variety of beers and coffees. Or so I hear (and the website proclaims).

What d'yall say?

 

[DizzloGreed]

I am coming, too! 

Traveling from Greece, first attending the Sweden Rock show and then Gigantium in Aalborg.

I can't wait!

[sixgnr]

Which is the airpot near Aalborg? Billund is so far! Is there anotherone?

I can't wait!

You can't spend money, you still owe the rest of Europe money 

@Sixgnr: I think Aalborg has its own airport, though not a large one. Don't know whether and if passenger flights are available. Where are you travelling from?

I'm travelling from Italy. Thank you so much RR! 

[Rainfox]

I called Cafe Luna and they're open on the 14th (it's a Monday).

No reservations so far.

What do you guys think? Meet up there?

[Dakini]

Any bar will do for me. 

I just got an e-mail from Aalborg Kongres & Kultur Center. I?m not that good in danish, but I understood that they?re offering everyone with a concert ticket a free bus ride to the venue. 
Can somebody who actually speaks danish please correct me if I?m wrong.. 

Busser:
Gratis bustransport til og fra Guns N? Roses indenfor Aalborg Kommune med Nordjyllands Trafikselskab.
Aalborg Kongres & Kultur Center og Nordjyllands Trafikselskab har lavet en aftale om gratis bustransport i hele Aalborg Kommune (zone 1-10, 15-18, 31-33, 37, 43-45 og 47) for publikum til Guns N? Roses koncerten i GIGANTIUM.
 
Tilbuddet g?lder for alle, som har en gyldig billet til koncerten
For at komme gratis med NT?s busser til og fra koncerten skal du blot fremvise din koncertbillet ved indstigning i bussen.

[Reckless Rose]

Yea, and I believe they warned us too that Guns might be a little late on stage 


I suppose we could all meet at the Gigantium, and find our way to a pub from there. I believe there are plenty around.

[Rainfox]

Reckless - I believe the venue is located a ways away from downtown and all the cafes, pubs and such. About 5 km or so. I think we'd be best versed to pick a place to all meet up in beforehand.

Any Aalborgenese who can help out?

I have been recommended Ib Rene Cairo and (especially) Cafe Luna.

 

[Reckless Rose]

I consider 5km to be within reasonable walking distance though 

[Rainfox]

Absolutely.

It would just be easier if there was a given place everyone could meet up at - so people aren't left waiting around outside the venue, and can drop in as they arrive...

 

[arnarsi]

cafe luna it is, see you all there

[Rainfox]

Good call.

Ron's signing is 15:00-17:00 though. It's about 4,5 km from Hobrovej 347 to Cafe Luna (Boulevarden 38).

[Rainfox]

Cafe Luna it is

Now I have to plan transfer from airport to the city and to the venue... any advice?
Six is coing back... Rock N' Rooooool!!!!!

[Reckless Rose]

I'm assuming that's the Danish word for "end", or it's a really thoughtful map for a lonely, out of town traveller :-D

[Rainfox]

See ya tomorrow, Leddy!

[Reckless Rose]

Whoa how late did you guys meet? I haven't met anyone of you lol. I did go to that cafe, but after an hour or two I gave up 'n went to Ron's meet and greet

The show was insane, loved it! Well worth the trip 

[Rainfox]

Reckless - we all met up around 17 (after Rons signing). Sorry you missed it. We'll do it next time!
