Hello Anyone know what time New Order are likely to take the stage? Due to babysitting issues we are unlikely to be there before 5:30 ish. Also, anyone know what Bombay Bicycle Club are like? Any good? Cheers

I saw Bombay BC on the Brixton leg of this tour. They were pretty decent. This is probably their best known song. Give it a minute or two, it's a grower.

Bombay Bicycle Club are on the bill as well? Not particularly interested in seeing them, heard one or two of their tunes , can't remember if i was impressed or not really.Can't imagine i'll be that arsed about seein them at Hyde Park Found this thread on a Specials forum. Apparently New Order were interviewed in Sunday Times culture magazine the other week and were asked how they felt about being third on the bill. So i'd hazard a guess on them playing 5pm ish til 6.30 ish? maybe. Before The Specials anyway it seems. Always thought that would be the case as like it or not The Specials are probably viewed as a bigger draw than New Order. 5pm til 6.30pm New Order ??? 7pm til 8.30pm Specials ??? 9pm til 11pm Blur ???

did anyone pick up on the bruce springsteen gig last week having the pug pulled at 10,38pm,as curfew is 10,30pm, so unless there's a dispensation for an 11,30 finish, anyones guess as to the time. all to do with the natives not liking the noise etc.
same borough, I think, as albert and festival halls, to which gigs there have to over and done by 10,30, but sure to be corrected on this point. |

Yes I read about the Springsteen gig too. But then on the BT London Live site it says the Olympic Closing Concert with Blur / New Order / Specials is due to finish at 12:30 midnight. So a special license for this one?
Cheers

Show starts at 16.30? That'll be Bombay Bicycle Club. New Order will be on about 6pm then?
What time does the whole thing finish though? Seriously doubt i'll be able to stick around for Blur if they're on til past midnight. Got a train to catch. As i said before i'm not going to get stranded in London just for that twat Albarn

Apparently it's supposed to finish at half twelve. Doubt I'll stick around until then, I only bought a ticket to see New Order, not particularly arsed about either The Specials or Blur regardless of what they show on the screens from Stratford, staying until the end will probably cost me best part of £30 to get a black cab after I've caught a train from Victoria at God knows what time, and the thought of dragging myself out of bed the next day isn't giving me cause for excitement.

Wheh hey ! It appears that there are later than usual trains out of London on the Sunday night because of the Olympics. The last train is 2.15am rather than the usual which is around 23.30, i think.

I'm on the 00:50 train to manchester (via sheffield) gets in at 04:15, but thats ok, as it connects with the first metrolink home, saving me a £20 taxi ride... i get in london at 15:00, so pre show cocktails in sam smiths the glasshouse stores, brewer street, then panic taxi about 5pm to the gig.
