colinvdbel (moderator) said on :

Claire said on :

I will be going and i know of at least 4 other UK fans going too.

JohnUK21 said on :

Yes!! Mat (onlywhenidream) and I are going for the weekend!!! Who else is going? Where you all staying? We’re staying at the Sheraton.

Breathe8 said on :

I will be there too with other czech fans. I also was in Halmstad and maybe I will be in Malmo too.

Perekopsky said on :

I think we will have to make a real after party!!! with Martini and Mazarins ;) and maybe with Mr Gessle for fun ;)

Emil__BG said on :

yeeep lets make it!

But some of the swedish members must give us a hint for place ,cos after GT concert in 2004 we have probs with finding open place .The few open were full.
Thanks Robert who find a place to stay for a while..

We Bulgarian will sleep in private hostel-apartment in Rissne . Some of the russians in Scandic-Ariadne ,other as long as i know in hotels near to the centre..

Breathe–we will visit Halmstad 3-5, Malmo 7-8 , Kalmar-8 , Stockholm 9-13... ;-)

Icegirl said on :

I will be catching the concerts in Växjö, Malmo, Västerås, Örebro and Stockholm! Also a UKer and I am aware of about 6 others who will be at the final concert in Stockholm and another 1 who will be at the final 5 concerts…

I was planning on perhaps going to the Absolut Bar after the Stockholm show… ;)

@ JohnUK21 the Sheraton is nice, currently undergoing a big facelift! ;) I am now staying there but am meeting up with some people who are staying there to go with them to the venue!

JohnUK21 said on :

Icegirl - send me a message, maybe we can all go together?

Icegirl said on :

Have done... ;)

Claire said on :

think im staying somehwere near the opera/theatre in the centre. cant remember the name dont think its anything fancy tho. have no idea where the concert place is tho lol.

Emil__BG said on :

Stockholm– Sjöhistoriska Muséet
it’s near TV tower –the same place where was Marie concert in 2000 and Per concert 2003

It’s not very near to the centre ,and as long as i remember after Per’s concert in 2003 there was massive traffic jam.
So maybe it’s better to have a big meeting around 12-1 p.m.??

Ryo Seba said on :

I agree, we can meet by 1 pm and have fun!

—– du kysste henne för att få reda på vem hon var —–

Emil__BG said on :

we can meet after the concert again all or with those who won’t be at dinner-time in Stockholm.
But must choose specific place so we can find easy each other..

Icegirl said on :

Bus 69 from the centre will take you to the concert venue! ;)

Icegirl said on :

@ Emil__BG I won’t be there at lunch time, am not arriving in Stockholm till around that take as travelling from Orebro .... but it would be great to meet up with others after the concert, how about we meet up at the back of the concert after all it’s pretty much like a big field! The perhaps walk into town togeather or something... find a bar and stumble into that!

felicity-brown said on :

Myself, a friend, my daughter (all 2.5 fans from England - London & Plymouth) and her dad (Swedish) will be going to the Stockholm show. We have an apartment by Östermalmstorg/Sturegallerian. Not sure we’ll party though cos I’ll have my baby with me, unless her dad babysits hehe ...or her farmor... I’m sure someone will, if I really want hmmm :P

Edit: The show’s on a Sunday, right? ...not the best night to party, but I’m sure there’ll be something.

Emil__BG said on :

icegirl- yeep few other fans we arrive form Orebro around luch-time too and maybe for them meeting before concert itsn’t good idea...
In the night will be hard to find bar.
Walking is OK
lets decide after few days when is clear who and when will be in Stockholm ..

m-cvk said on :

A good friend of mine (Harrie) and I will be there :-)

rossyrox said on :

I am going to the Stockholm show, from the UK....first time I’ve been able to arrange time off work when a show is on since Room Service in Goteborg ’01 ! - Looking forward to it.

harriej said on :

I will be there (with m-cvk).
Looking forward to it.

Icegirl said on :

@ rossyrox... where abouts in the UK are you?

felicity-brown said on :

mm would be nice to meet up with all :) Doubt I’ll go early with the baby, but will try and sneak forward a little throughout the show and leave bubs, sitting back with her dad ;) Try and arrange to meet up after to at least say “hello”, if we don’t join any plans there might be - not sure yet.

rossyrox said on :

North East, MIddlesbrough is the nearest big town to me, although I refused to pay £200 to fly from my local airport so plan to drive to Stanstead.

Claire said on :

Rossy r u going to stockholm concert?
we’re flying back to newcastle on the tuesday afterwards bia heathrow from arlanda. BA were not as expensive as KLM etc.

JohnUK21 said on :

Hey rossyrox, so when do you arrive in Sthlm? Mat & I are flyingfrom LHR on Friday morning, going home on Monday! :p Although I feel bad for Mat to drive all the way to LHR from Oop North, I have to do it from Dahn Sath!!

Icegirl said on :

I am flying from Manchester, was not expensive at all £69 to fly to Copenhagen with SAS then I am taking the train over to Malmo! Coming back via Healthrow also with BA as I couldn’t seem to get a direct flight back to Manchester that cost me £79! Plus just one internal flight from Malmo to Stockholm which was £30!

onlywhenidream said on :

@ JohnUK21 - don’t feel bad about me driving - it’s fine! Keep your feeling sorry for me after we have partied at Club Patricia (or whatever it’s called) and I am exceptionally hung over the next day - then I will need sympathy!! lol

@ All UK roxers/ Gessle fans. I think it would be great if we could all catch up and go together, or at least meet there. We could section off an area of the concert place and sit down, sip tea and eat cucumber snadwiches whilst everyone else laughs at us!

BRING IT ON!

Mat

JohnUK21 said on :

I think that’s marvellous Mat... Tetley tea for you northerners and PG for us southern softies!!

With regard to sandwiches, you bring the buns and I’ll bring the filling, sweetheart! LOL

This is sounding more like an orgy by the minute!!

ncurran said on :

I was supposed to be going to Stockholm, but I can’t make it now....I doublebooked 2 trips by a mistake. It’s a shame though....sounds like a lot of people are going to this one so it would have been fun

onlywhenidream said on :

I would like to add a legal disclaimer at this point. I am not a northerner. I am from the Midlands. (not that there is anything wrong with being a northerner) but I just don’t get the whole ferret thing. ;o)

JohnUK21 said on :

I’d heard that you were partial into having a ferret in your pocket, or is that only swedish boys named Jonas, or whatever his name was.. and you know what I’m on about!!

Icegirl said on :

Where is this Club Patricia you are going to? Claire is that the place you mentioned you where planning on going too?

I am a north girl and a Tetley Girl but I’ll settle for a bottle of Absolut!

JohnUK21 said on :

Club Patricia is a boat.... and there’s a foam party on the lower deck where everyone gets drunk, soaked with foam, and their clothes fall off and you get groped from all angles... so they tell me ;)

Claire said on :

yea my plan is to go to Patricia, its near the metro station Slussen from what i remember. not sure bout the foam party but its a gay club on a sunday so im told.

onlywhenidream said on :

oh my - the foam party! I could hardly breathe last time I went there cos there was soooo much foam! Then I just remember trapsing through the streets of stockholm at some ungodly hour with trainers squelching from all the foam...ah John..can we do it again, please please please! LOL! ;o)

onlywhenidream said on :

@ RossyRox I used to visit up that way as a kid - we used to stay with family in Thornaby...but I went to ’borough a few times. Don’t remember much about it now, but it was good fun as a kid.

rossyrox said on :

Thornaby is just up the road, I am in Redcar, a seaside town, http://homepage.ntlworld.com/fred.brunskill1/id22.htm for anyone who is interested!

I got direct flights for my wife and I from Stanstead to stockholm (not arlanda but its almost as close) for £55 each all in :) There was a direct flight from Manchester with SAS but only 1 a day around business hours and I like direct flights, halves your chances of civil aviation catastrophe. It is my first time with Ryanair.

I’ve booked some kind of flug bus to get me to and from the airport which was very cheap indeed and I’m staying in the Radisson Viking.

onlywhenidream said on :

@ RossyRox - that’s almost exactly the journey me and John did to go to Stockholm a couple of years back. Apart from we flew from Stansted to Stockholm with Ryan Airways. We too took THAT bus and stayed at the Royal Viking! lol

Nice hotel. If you get the chance go to the hotel to the left of the Royal Viking (called the Northern Lights I think or Northern something anyway...) it has a great cocktail bar!

Emil__BG said on :

onlywhenidream

We never before use Ryanair.
Is it good?

And about bus–you can book tickets on web site but it doesn’t write exact time .
It’s good in case of flight delay but can we be sure that there will be places for all of us in the bus??

rossyrox said on :

I booked my bus tickets online, it just says to print it out and show the conductor. My understanding is that there is a bus every hour or so and it takes around an hour to get there.

It is all on here: http://www.flygbussarna.se/en/default.asp

onlywhenidream said on :

Yeah the bus is pretty frequent - and relatively quick into Stockholm. You should have no problems.

Icegirl said on :

.... and the good news for all us stuck up North is that Ryanair are FINALLY starting a flight from Liverpool to Stockholm in October 2007! Bookings can be made now!

Icegirl said on :

Hello Fliss.... ;) Looking forward to meeting up with you and Manda...

A

Icegirl said on :

@ Harriej - Yeah great news you are coming to Stockholm!

AURYTE said on :

As mentioned on the first page, I’m also going to the Stockholm show together with the other fan from Lithuania. It would be really nice to meet you all :)

PS I have a question: do you need to book a busticket in order to travel from Arlanda airport to the centre of the city?

*****************************************************************
The moon is alright

Mari said on :

You can buy ticket on the bus. It costs about 7€.

AURYTE said on :

@Mari: thank you for the info :)

*****************************************************************
The moon is alright

Icegirl said on :

@ AURYTE

If we see each other then you shall have to pass the time and teach me some Lithuanian as my new neighbours and from Lithuania (and very nice they are too!) :)

... and yes buses are very frequent into Stockholm from Arlanda airport!

I am off to Vaxjo tomorrow!

AURYTE said on :

@Icegirl: I’d really love to meet you :) Btw, where are you staying in Stockholm?

And most importantly, have a good time in Vaxjö!!!

*****************************************************************
The moon is alright

Icegirl said on :

I am staying at the Scandic Malmen! ;) but am already meeting several people in Stockholm so can only really see anyone else at the venue or on the 13th!

Vaxjo is great!

Mari said on :

Scandic Malmen is a nice hotell. This time I’m staying at the Hotel Adlon, great location! Stockholm is third EHM concert for me, can’t wait! Btw, how to get to Sjöhistoriska? Which bus? I was there 2003 (Mazarin) but can’t remember which bus drives there.

JohnUK21 said on :

Do you think we all need a badge or something to recognise each other at the concert??

roxgirl_germany said on :

From the station, it is bus 69.

Mari said on :

roxgirl_germany, thank you very much!

ATLTK said on :

I am going to stockholm see ya there

Denstandigaresan said on :

Yay, I’m going! :) Going with felicity-brown and her daughter.... see you there! :)

roxgirl_germany said on :

Oh, would be cool to see cute little Freya for real!!! Hope we manage to bump into each other.

Another question about used public transport: does anyone know how large a zone is? I tried to find information on SL’s site but they only give the price for a zone - no clue how many tickets I might need to get to Sjöhistoriska and back...

Icegirl said on :

If it’s anything like the last two concerts I will be walking back! lol Hopefully Stockholm buses will run longer!

roxgirl_germany said on :

We need not be worried in Stockholm, I think. ;)

Hihi, that reminds me of the last Stockholm concert (2003) when someone was kind enough to pack us all into their car to get back to the hostel - and we almost entered a one-way street from the wrong side... *hihi*

daniel_alv said on :

roxgirl_germany >> Sjöhistoriska is in the same zone as Stockholm Central Station

One little warning, the buses doesn’t allow you to pay in cash on the bus anymore, you have to pay with VISA in the machines at some busstops or buy a prepaid ticket at SL center or some trainstations...

roxgirl_germany said on :

Thanks, I assume the main tourist attractions (from Stadshus to Skansen) should be in one zone and they give a lot of information on their site (like the thing with buying from vendors or machines) but no zone map...

It will either be the “carnet” with 16 rides or a 24 h ticket for me.

daniel_alv said on :

Zonmap:
http://www.sl.se/Upload/biljetter/pdf/SL_Spartrafik_2007_web.pdf

The entire subwaysystem is included in zon A with the whole city. B and C are mainly suburbs.

You can buy a 24 hour card for 90 SEK (55 SEK children)

You can also buy 16 cupons for 160 (Children 95) SEK. A trip between central station and sjöhistoriska costs 2 cupons.

If you buy in a machine you pay 26 (Children 16) SEK to travel between central station and sjöhistoriska.

You pay the child fee if you are under 20, you can not have turned 20.

Icegirl said on :

Handy info to know.... :) thanks for that!

AURYTE said on :

Thank you very much for all the info. It is very handy indeed.

I just have one little question: when roxgirl_germany wrote to take bus 69 from the station, did she mean the Central Station?

*****************************************************************
The moon is alright

roxgirl_germany said on :

Yes, it’s the Central station.

Thanks, Daniel, for the map!

felicity-brown said on :

or the buses... there you can see bus 69 that takes you to the venue :)

jude77 said on :

Hi! We will be there from Hungary, two girls.Where do you plan the after party?

AURYTE said on :

Thank you people for all the help. You are amazing :)

And the after party, it would be cool :D

*****************************************************************
Jag ska bygga mej en båt och segla tills det blir Per Gessle konsert :)

daniel_alv said on :

The Stockholm gig is yellow on Ticnet :D

Icegirl said on :

The afterparty, take cheap cider, get drunk walking back to town! Sit in the park singing silly songs.... lol

AURYTE said on :

@Icegirl: that sounds perfect :)

*****************************************************************
Jag ska bygga mej en båt och segla tills det blir Per Gessle konsert :)

AURYTE said on :

Another question about Sjöhistoriska: at what bus station should I get off?

*****************************************************************
Jag ska bygga mej en båt och segla tills det blir Per Gessle konsert :)

daniel_alv said on :

It looks like the name of it is Sjöhistoriska museet

AURYTE said on :

Thank you, Daniel. I thought the same, but still I wanted someone from Stockholm to confirm it :)

*****************************************************************

Rosina said on :

So, are we having an after concert party ? :)

*Me in party mood*

marcusvandeursen said on :

Any arrangements made to meet up somewhere before the concert or a drink afterwards?
Was thinking of heading down to Sjöhistoriska museet around 16:00

rossyrox said on :

just realised the hotel has free wifi and i have a wifi phone!

there is a shed load of taxis ouside the station and it is atill too warm to walk, according to my satnav it is only a 2mile walk back.

i cant believe someone took the Per poster from outside the sas viking, that was gonna be mine!

Enjoy the show everyone..

Icegirl said on :

Fantastic concert..... a great end to give great shows for me! :)

rossyrox said on :

yes it was fantastic, Stockholm is soooo expensive!

Icegirl said on :

Why is it I never find Sweden expensive.....

AURYTE said on :

Yeah, the concert was fantastic. I stood almost right in front of Per’s mic :)

*****************************************************************

Icegirl said on :

@ AURYTE .... Lucky you! :)

dubacik said on :

I was also in the first row together with fans and friends from Bulgaria, Austria and Czech Republic and we reeeeeeeeeeally enjoyed the gig. Thanx Per for great evening!

Claire said on :

Concert was fantastic! Sill didnt find a plectrum and didnt see Marie and ALL of the EHM posters that were everywhere in Stockholm had vanished when i looked for one undercover of darkness lol.
The only thing that is too expensive in Stockholm is the ALCOHOL!!!

Icegirl said on :

Hej Clare, great to finally get to say hello! ;)

As for the EHM posters, I did get two.... there was a couple in Örebro and someone had ripped Per’s head off them! Lol (honest it was not me…)
