Look at my Post Count Daragh, 4000+ Posts you know who is a real boardsie!!!! Go on give them to me:D

Owen · 22-10-2009 7:35pm

I need this. I can officially represent boards, but getting topless, and puking in the corner of a room, preferrably on some jazz attendees, where I can wipe my face, burp, and say "Sponsored by Boards .... Tada!"

woytek_tzn · 22-10-2009 10:48pm

Anything 4 free here?:D

JohnK · 23-10-2009 12:24am

mutul8 · 23-10-2009 12:36am

Enjoy your night if you're there.

wonka · 23-10-2009 7:37am

Pick me. Pick me. I was going to save myself for tomorrow night - but might as well start the weekend off on a good 'note'.

440Hz · 23-10-2009 9:18am

Ok... First reason... I live for jazz/blues; second... I've been miserably sick all week so could really do with some cheering up, and this would *really* cheer me up... Lastly, I just really really want to go!!

Thanks!

Balmed Out · 23-10-2009 11:28am

JohnK · 23-10-2009 8:39pm

when i went to get tickets noone seemed to know anything about it. Managed to get 2 from one of the reps anyway but he didn't know anything about it.

John, your tickets are at reception under your name. I know this because I'm standing in the Met Bar and have literally just checked to see if they've been collected, but they hadn't.

They're there, I promise!

JohnK · 23-10-2009 10:57pm

well it would appear that i'm a bloody muppet! Apologies Darragh, went to the reception desk a few minutes ago and picked up my tickets. Yes i feel like a twat. (i'd put an embarrased smilie here but i'm on my phone and can't remember the code). Anyhoo, if i somehow run into you in this crowd i'll buy you a pint.

JohnK · 23-10-2009 11:07pm

also, in my defence when i got to the door earlier and tried to get past the bouncer they said ticket collections were in the theatre where after a few false starts, phonecalls and a trip to yet another office i was finally directed to a friendly guinness rep. And yes i'm aware i'm rambling but i blame boards for all the alcohol here

(woo boards

)

Darragh, same thing as happened John K happened me, I turned up around 10 and they wouldn't let me past the door to collect my Tix, I went to the Everyman, and was sent back.

It's 120 am and I am home because the buddy I brought decided to be all ghey after being turned away so we went to a work party of his:(

Ah well, I would have enjoyed it but the bouncer was an eejit and knew nothing!!!

JohnK · 24-10-2009 12:51am

just to mention, i found that that rep during the night and made my apologies about the mix up and when i told him my tickets had been at the reception desk he said he never thought of that as thats where residents tickets were.PIty you didnt get in. PHONES AcTInG up sORRY BOUT CAPS

JohnK · 24-10-2009 3:08am

well the nights over now. Thanks for a great night out boards! Really enjoyed it and without this comp would have never even thought of the metrapol, would have stayed in the fransiskin well till closing, which while good did not in on for anywhere near as long as the met. Thanks again for the tickets :-)

Darragh · 24-10-2009 10:04am

Folks, I'm really sorry for the mix up. I'll relay it back to the Festival Club. When I left the tickets there I had been told it would all be looked after.

I'll talk to my contacts today and drop you a PM later. Appreciate your patience!

Not your fault Darragh, don't worry about it!!! I have worked a few festivals in the past, they tend to have a few mix-ups.

I had a good night anyway, I little hungover now though!!!! I blame you and Comrade Vodka for that!!!:P

I second that. Well, not the bit about having worked festivals but I have been to quite a few
