rar Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Hi, Just wondering if anyone who stayed after the gig at the canning town holiday inn express comes on here.. We had a great night after the show, even if a little too much beer was consumed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zepp-4-Life Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 If you are refering to the Holiday Inn 10 minutes down the road from the 02 then ...... Yaaaaaaa . I'm Jeff from Toronto , and we stayed up all night and then me and my friend took off for the BBC studio's . Does that ring a bell ?? We all sat around watching the lap-top and the camera footage we had of the show . If I recall there were people from many places throughout the world . I can vividly still feel and remember the energy and buzz we all shared in . The best night of my many !!!!! We should start an alumni group -- lol . Who's on this list ??? 1) Jeff -- Toronto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rar Posted January 15, 2008 Author Share Posted January 15, 2008 Ours was the Holiday Inn Express.... London Docks, Silvertown way. One Tube stop from the o2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zepp-4-Life Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Well , it certainly seems like the Holiday Inn's were having a blast . Hats off to all those that enjoyed a festive evening !!! Our hotel lobby must have had at least 25 to start and then by the end there was about 7 of us left nearing 5AM. Cheeers , and cherish those memories . A historic night .

All the exciting TV-throwing stuff must have happened after I went to bed, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be good if they did. Led Zeppelin tribute bands could go and record there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfdiesel Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 (edited) Hey Jeff, Yes, Me and my wife stayed up all night with you guys as well at the Holiday Inn Express. It was an awesome night to come back from the concert and continue celebrating with everyone. I was really surprised at the number of people there after the concert. Both me and my wife stayed up in the lobby until you left for your interviews. We then met up with you and Steve the following night in the lobby and we closed the bar again at 2:00AM Sean from NJ Edited January 15, 2008 by bfdiesel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
