Sunrise listening sessions for But Here We Are
Comments
It's not on a coach, you can drive yourself 😁. Coach leaves central London at 12.30 and back at 9.30. Is somewhere in "south east" England so we're gambling on it being Kent/East Sussex for the sunrise. Margate is pretty far east and only 90 mins drive! Who needs sleep.
Greetings! What did I miss?
Congrats! How exciting!
Who indeed…. 😂
The email that went round about the America ones say doors at 4am so I think we can get to most places OK for them! If it's stonehenge I'm getting a hotel though 😂 unfortunately I have a presentation at 1pm so can't take the day off....
Haha. Hello and well done!
You've got to make sure to report back.
Seems like it’ll be open to anyone who turns up
Are you tempted?
The US ones seem to be but not sure the one here is, otherwise why have a competition?
I didn’t get lucky but I’m not that sad about it given it involves being up all night 🤣
Unsure. Will decide tomorrow. Been contacted by Columbia Records UK so I have 2 tickets, which is nice of them. Need to let them know asap 🥴
Hello again! You won?!!
One of my other friends won as well.
I checked my email the minute I fell off a plane but alas but then I did the free entry, maybe you got left out of the draw😂 I’d already pre-ordered a CD from one of the other promos and the vinyl from the store before any of the promos hit!
Congrats!
Congrats!
I saw you can drive yourself as my other friend showed her email. We said would be ironic to go all the way up to London to come back down to Brighton if that’s where it ended up being!
Still, seems it’s not a problem.. 😭
Have an awesome time!
I'll be there, luckily as a friend's plus one! Travelling from Manchester.... Who needs sleep hey.....
Nice! Think it’ll be worth it if you decide to go!
Awesome!! Have a great time…
Snooze afterwards!
There’s still time for people to drop out too - maybe there’s a wait list 😎
Thank you! I've already packed tissues as think I'll be sobbing hearing the full album.
I bloody love a sunrise!
Can’t wait to hear your post-review! ❤️
It will be awesome, collective sobbing…
I’m sure there must be a B list, some people won’t be able to make it due to logistics.
Decided not to bother with this. Hope everyone who attends has a fun time though!!
Sleep is king this time!
I've done a double quote as I can't remember how to delete a quote thing 🤣
We're now in two minds, does depend on where it is and their definition of south east England. To me, it's Kent/east Sussex, both of which are about 90 mins from here. So we shall see.
Sleep is king.... Unfortunately I still have long covid so have to be reasonably sensible all the damn time now!
Sorry to hear you’re still struggling with it! That sounds horrid!
I’m sure it’ll be great if you decide to go - but it’s a lot to consider at short notice isn’t it
When do you know where it actually is?
Yeah it covers a wide area and to me it’s Kent/Sussex as well. Maybe right at the farthest, white cliffs of Dover! 😂
Sorry to hear you’re still suffering from long Covid 😞 As you say just be hard having to plan things around it all the time. Plus as you said you’ve got to work the rest of the day, don’t want you falling asleep during your presentation. At least I can always make up nap time, especially as I’ve got jet lag so was wide awake at 4 this morning!
If you do go, can’t wait to hear all about it. If not gives me another chance! 🤞🏻
Now we know where it is..... Its definitely not south east England 🤣 someone needs a map.....
Long covid is far better than it has been. Sometimes I feel normal, but I do have to be very careful not to overdo it and I think a trip of this length mid week is too much. Ah well. Still grasping at straws of possibly staying in a hotel nearby but would still involve a long drive after work. Dunno.
Here was I thinking I’d just go after work and go to work for 9am the next day (if I’d have been successful) 😂😂😂
Sounds like it might be a bit much
Get the hotel!!! See you later 🤗
